Issue with non-UHS-I SD3.0 cards

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I am seeing the issue where "SanDisk Extreme SDHC 8GB Class 10 card" is
running in "Default Speed" mode even though it supports "High Speed" mode.
After analysis, I found that this card is advertising itself as SD3.0 card
(with SD_SPEC=2 and SD_SPEC3=1 in SCR). But current mmc core later
initialization sequence for SD3.0 cards is such that these non-UHS-I SD3.0
cards runs in Default Speed mode @25MHz.

Here is Essential conditions to indicate Version 3.00 Card (from SD3.01
spec)
    (SD_SPEC=2 and SD_SPEC3=1) :
    (1) The card shall support CMD6
    (2) The card shall support CMD8
    (3) The card shall support CMD42
    (4) User area capacity shall be up to 2GB (SDSC) or 32GB (SDHC)
        User area capacity shall be more than or equal to 32GB and
        up to 2TB (SDXC)
    (5) Speed Class shall be supported (SDHC or SDXC)


So even if SD card doesn't support any of the newly defined UHS-I bus speed
mode, it can advertise itself as SD3.0 cards as long as it supports all the
essential conditions of SD3.0 cards. Given this, these type of cards should
at least run in High Speed mode @50MHZ if it supports HS.

Here are the changes you have to do to make non-UHS-I SD3.0 cards run in
High Speed Mode @50MHz. Do let me know if looks fine or not, so I can post
the formal patch.
