| SD card weirdness |

I've been trying the same setup everyone else has been using (http://www.cc5x.de/MMC/ for example), where I have a 3.3V power source to the SD, and then I use voltage dividers to get the PIC outputs down to 3.3V signals.
I can successfully read and write to the card, but only after I do a certain proceedure. The attached code (modified from http://www.ccsinfo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=27823&highlight=card) is what I use to just initialize and read from the card. When I first apply power to the SD card, I have to switch the MMC_DI and MMC_DO pins in software, try to intitialize, then switch the pins back and then everything works fine. Then I can sit and program just fine until I remove power to the MMC card, in which case I have to switch the pins again.

#include <18F452.h>
#fuses HS,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,NOLVP
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=115200, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7)
//Define New Pin Out
#define MMC_CS PIN_E0
#define MMC_CLK PIN_C3
#define MMC_DI PIN_C5
#define MMC_DO PIN_C4
#include<mmc_spi.c>
int8 buffer[512];
int16 size=512;
void main(void)
{
int32 address=0;
int8 *ptra;
int16 f;
int16 i;
//initialize buffer
for (i=0; i<512; i++)
buffer[i] = 0;
//set pointer
ptra = &(buffer[0]);
//initialization sequence
printf("\n\rInitializing SD drivers...\n\r");
if(mmc_init()==0)
printf("PASSED\n\r");
else
printf("FAILED\n\r");
address = 0;
while(TRUE)
{
while(input(PIN_A4));
while(!input(PIN_A4));
//read block
if(mmc_read_block(address, 512,ptra)==0)
printf("\n\rread ok\n\r");
else
printf("\n\rread fault");
//print the buffer
printf("\n\n\r 512 bytes starting at ADDRESS = %lu:\n\r", address);
for(f=0;f<=511;f++)
printf("%u ",buffer[f]);
address += 512;
}
while(TRUE)
{
output_low(PIN_B4);
delay_ms(500);
output_high(PIN_B4);
delay_ms(500);
}
}

Does anyone have any suggestions? Some mentioned something about the PIC powering down and not knowing where the SD card went. I'm using the CCS PIC18F452 protoboard right now.[/code] |

Thanks for the code, but I'm not sure how to use it. Where do functions(?) like Card, DeselectSD, SD_Flush_SPI, ..., come from?
Is it just a fluke that the MMC initialization file from CCS works with SD cards too? I was reading through the SD manual and it looked like the commands were the same.
Thanks! |

Card is a variable which holds the type of card information discovered by the SD_init() such as MMC, SD, Unknown
SelectSD and DeSelectSD are defined to assert and deassert the SD Cards CS input.
SD_Flush_SPI is a function to flush the SPI bus.

The MMC commands are a subset of the SD command set however most embedded applications would simply use the common MMC command set, with one important difference being the initialization sequence. the SD_Init function determines the type of card are initializes it accordingly. If you are initializing an SD card using the MMC initialization sequence then you should not expect the card to function correctly.

| Thanks a lot for your help. I think I'll just buy an MMC card instead. I was hoping to have something more or less work out of the box, and it looks like CCS's mmc_spi.c file will do that if I just use an MMC card... like the file says. |
