SD Interface¶
Signals¶
Pin | Signal | type | I/O | Description |
36 | SD_CD | 3V3 | I | SD Card Detect – connected to a GPIO |
38 | SD_D0 | 3V3 | I/O | SD Data bidirectional signals |
37 | SD_D1 | |||
42 | SD_D2 | |||
41 | SD_D3 | |||
40 | SD_CMD | 3V3 | I/O | SD Command bidirectional signal |
39 | SD_CLK | 3V3 | O | SD Output Clock. |
The QS standard pinout provides one dedicated SD interface.
SD-Card example diagram¶
Either the use of the processor internal pullups or the use of pullups on the baseboard is possible.
