Hi All, From my limited understanding the physical interface is the same between the SD and SDHC except the read/write speed is much faster... My ARM9 cpu has SD hardware ... but what is needed to impliment SDHC..... is extra hardware required or only software driver. Thanks in Advance Joe

Hi there, I need the SDHC spec cause I got to adapt existing embedded code to support the HC cards. neither google nor Sandisk helped. Any ideas where to get the spec from would be highly appreciated. Do ordinary built in SD card reads in laptops support SDHC? Is there anything out for cards beyond 32 GB ? tia w.b.

Hello, I'm trying to add SDHC support to a STM32 4 bit mode driver (not SPI) which works fine with normal SD. Before ACMD41 I added CMD8 with 0x01AA as a parameter; the answer is the same (0x01AA) which is OK. In the following ACMD41 I set HSC bit (arg is 0x40000000), but in the STM32 SDIO controller the timeout flag is set. Did someone write a SDIO 4 bit driver for SDHC, please? ...

Hi All, I am writing a data logging firmware using dosfs. The size of data I am logging is more than 10Meg. I tested the firmware with 2G SD card and 4G SDHC card. Both of these cards are working properly. When I put these cards into my PC I can read the filenames and creation dates. However, when I tested the same firmware against a 8G SDHC card, after logging about 1Meg of data, the DFS_Write...

Hi All, 1. I'd like the executive summary of the differences between the SD and SDHC memory interfaces. My assumptions the connection interface is the same and the physical interface is the same except the speed and protocol. 2. microSD is the same as SD except the microSD is physically smaller. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks Joe

I am reading a CPU eval board data sheet that says it supports 1.8 volt interface for MMC cards. They don't seem to support SD cards. Looking at wikipedia they say, "All SD card families initially use a 3.3-volt electrical interface. On command, SDHC and SDXC cards switch to 1.8-volt operation." How is that intended to work? I don't see the utility of requiring a voltage converter chip so ...

Anyone know how data on an "Secure" Digital Card can be secured? I'm designing an embedded arm-based board that uses a standard SD/SDHC Card for storage, and I'd like to secure certain partitions by password protecting them from reading/writing. The only built-in protection I've been able to find is the SD Card's Content Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM). Apparently the use of th...

Hi everyone, I have interfaced a Micro SD card to a MSP430 microcontroller using the SPI mode. Everything worked perfectly fine but I recently had problems when writing too often into my files. Here is my setup. As I said the card (SDHC 4Go) is directly connected to the microcontroller via its USCI (SPI) peripheral. I have written the basic SD access (register read / write, basically...
