    Default MMC/SD card initialization

    Hi all,

    I am trying to communicate to a SD/MMC card. I have search all over the internet to find examples to get it to work, but it doesn't.
    I have made my own PCB according to the schematic that micro engineering has provided. I have also already checked if the SPI is
    active, and it is. But right after i call FSinit, i get an error (i read out the error according the example of micro engineering). The
    output is as follows:
    FAT_error = 6
    SDC_status = 1
    SDC_response = 255

    This is de code for generating to general variables for the SD include:
    Code:
     SD_WE       var PORTC.6     'SD card Write Protect 
        SD_WE_TRIS  var TRISC.6     'SD card Write Protect direction
        SDI         var PORTC.4     'SPI data in
        SDI_TRIS    var TRISC.4     'SPI data in direction
        SCL         var PORTC.3     'SPI clock
        SCL_TRIS    var TRISC.3     'SPI clock direction
        SD_CS       var PORTA.5     'SD card Chip Select
        SD_CS_TRIS  var TRISA.5     'SD card chip select direction
        SD_CD       var PORTC.7     'SD card Detect
        SD_CD_TRIS  var TRISC.7     'SD card detect direction
        SDO         var PORTC.5     'SPI data out
        SDO_TRIS    Var TRISC.5     'SPI data out direction
    and my own code in main:
    Code:
        gosub FSInit                'initialise the SD card
        Serout2 PORTB.1, 84, ["Init: ", FAT_error, " ", SDC_status, " ", SDC_response, $d, $a]
        gosub SD_error_check        'Check for errors on SD card
        gosub FINDfirst             'Look for files on SD card
        While(FAT_error = 0)        'Find next file on card
            files_found = files_found + 1
            Gosub FINDnext           
        Wend
    Can someone give me a direction to search for. I have already wasted lots of time to confirm if
    it is actually working (PIC) and I am know at the point of desperation (almost ).

    I'm waiting for that good old little segment that you always forget somehow ;(.

    kind regards,

    Remco

    This is important.

    Kept on going through the pages of threads and found this one:
    http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/show...hlight=sd+card

    They point to MeLabs samples (that we probably already have in PBP):
    http://melabs.com/samples/PBP-mixed/index.htm

    (scroll down to sdfs3.pbp)

    It's the same ReadMe, but it has an earlier date on at least two of the files at a quick glance.

    I'd use that one. It has the truckload of pins like you are using, so it's possible it'll suit your needs.

    Nice schematic too.

    Robert


    EDIT: And after going through the files a bit, this is where I notice that this is exactly where you got your code from.

    Did you notice this part?

    The included PICBASIC PRO code requires PBP version 2.50 or later. It uses
    the PIC18 long libraries that are part of that version of the compiler. This
    also means the files only work on PIC18 parts. Be sure to specify the long
    version of the compiler, PBPL
    , when compiling programs using these files.

    And now I notice you copied from this program, yeeesh, I'm great help tonight.

    Dumb question, have you tried using the sample test program AS IS? (correcting pins and CONFIGs of course)

    Robert


    EDIT: The Target PIC must be a typo in the comments:
    Code:
    ' Target PIC  : PIC16F4550
    The Description is most likely correct:
    Code:
    ' Target PIC  : PIC18F4550

    Post your whole code. State the parts you are using and how they are connected. Verify the SD card is good, 2 gb or less and formatted FAT16.

    Do you have this line near the top of your code ?
    Code:
     SDC_UseHardSPI = FALSE    ' Use hardware SSP port for SPI.

    First of all thank you for all you replies.

    With regard to you Demon:
    *Yes, I use capital letters for the files.
    *Yes, I have selected to use PBPL (get the message when it is compiled).
    *Yes, I am using an PIC18 part (specific PIC18F26K80).
    *And yes, I also found what the error codes represents and as you stated they aren't so much of a help.

    With regards to mackrackit:
    As you can see in the code below, i have specified your line directly after I include the SDFS file.
    And i use a 2GB card and it is in FAT format (and that will be FAT16, according to Microsoft).

    I have already established that all my IO works, but today I am gonna try to monitor the data that is send
    to the SD card and what he will send back

    one problem i had when first getting sd card to work was cheep / ebay sd card slot holder
    i had micro sd card that was then fitted to standard sd card adapter

    changing the sd slot holder pcb allowed the sd card to work , it turned out 4 sd slot card holders did not hold the sd card well and would not allow initialization

    something to check / test

    All of you, thank you for your help.

    But ofcource, as always, the code wasn't wrong (for now). My PCB layout was a tiny bit wrong with regards to the SD pinout.

    As they say, the devil is in the details

    Yet another little fact learned.

    But i will stay in touch, because I see other problem in the near furture.

    Kind regards,

    Rmeco

    And here am i again,

    I am using the standard example from microengineering to write to a SD card.
    I can see that it's willing to create a new file, only when i want to write to it i
    get the error 9 (CE_WRITE_ERROR Con 9 ' Could not write to a sector).
    Am I blind to something or is it just so simple that i miss it?

    And ofcource it was sutch a simple but rather irritating problem.

    Apperently the SDFS file or SD card doenst like a timer interrupt around the 4 ms.

    After removing this timer, is all worked an i could write to the file and read all of it.

    Thanks for the help anyway.

    Kind regards,

    Remco

    You're welcome.

    This was research for my future use of SD cards. That sample code is perfect.
    My Creality Ender 3 S1 Plus is a giant paperweight that can't even be used as a boat anchor, cause I'd be fined for polluting our waterways with electronic devices.

    Not as dumb as yesterday, but stupider than tomorrow!

    also even though he removed the timer, i wonder why it was using DT-INT-14,and not the int-18 version which is correct for the 18f chip sets

    Al-tho it works fine (I see no difference in it't execution). And I actually never knew there was another file specially for pic18F and pic18LF. But I have changed it to the correct version now, thanks for the head-up.
