Does it give off heat?
Does it light up?
Does it give off sound?

Not as a desired output but it does get warm.
It doesn't light up.
It is completely silent.

Maybe a little.

a digital card for a camera or other device
on the other hand it looks like a IC chip (if it is you either work in the field or do it as a hobby)

those two white/silver spots on the right are contact points or pins

Unless y'all want to guess what the function of the card is, we have a winner! Over to Morgan....

It's a computer memory module. For me, the toughest part of this GTCU was finding a section of the image that didn't tell all right away!
