1.3 Functional Block Diagram

The MMC/SD card controller transfers data between the ARM and the EDMA controller on one side and the MMC/SD card on the other side, as shown in Figure 1 . This means you have a choice of performing data transfers using the CPU or EDMA as a mechanism to move data between the device memory and the FIFO. The ARM and the EDMA controller can read from or write to the data in the card by accessing the registers in the MMC/SD controller.

1.5 Industry Standard(s) Compliance Statement

The MMC/SD card controller supports the following industry standards (with the exception noted below):
MMC (Multimedia Card) Specification V3.31
SD (Secure Digital) Physical Layer Specification V1.1
The information in this document assumes that you are familiar with these standards. The MMC/SD controller does not support the SPI mode of operation.

2 Peripheral Architecture

The MMC/SD controller uses the MMC/SD protocol to communicate with the MMC/SD cards. You can configure the MMC/SD controller to work as an MMC or SD controller, based on the type of card the controller is communicating with. Figure 2 summarizes the MMC/SD mode interface. Figure 3 illustrates how the controller interfaces to the cards in MMC/SD mode.
In the MMC/SD mode, the MMC controller supports one or more MMC/SD cards. Regardless of the number of cards connected, the MMC/SD controller selects one by using identification broadcast on the data line. The following MMC/SD controller pins are used:
CMD: This pin is used for two-way communication between the connected card and the MMC/SD controller. The MMC/SD controller transmits commands to the card and the memory card drives responses to the commands on this pin.
DAT0 or DAT0-3: MMC cards only use one data line (DAT0) and SD cards use one or four data lines. The number of DAT pins (the data bus width) is set by the WIDTH bit in the MMC control register (MMCCTL), see Section 4.1 ).
CLK: This pin provides the clock to the memory card from the MMC/SD controller.

2.1 Clock Control

There are two clocks, the function clock and the memory clock, in the MMC/SD controller (Figure 4 ). The function clock determines the operational frequency of the MMC/SD controller and is the input clock
to the MMC/SD card(s). The MMC/SD controller is capable of operating with a function clock up to 100 MHz.
The memory clock appears on the SD_CLK pin of the MMC/SD controller interface. The memory clock controls the timing of communication between the MMC/SD controller and the connected memory card. The memory clock is generated by dividing the function clock in the MMC/SD controller. The divide-down value is set by CLKRT bits in the MMC memory clock control register (MMCCLK) and is determined by the following equation:
memory clock frequency = function clock frequency/(2 × (CLKRT + 1))
Figure 4. MMC/SD Controller Clocking Diagram
(1) Maximum memory clock frequency in MMC card can be 20 MHz. (2) Maximum memory clock frequency in SD card can be 50 MHz.

2.3 Protocol Descriptions

Peripheral Architecture
Table 1 shows the MMC/SD controller pins that each mode uses. The MMC/SD protocol uses the clock,
command (two-way communication between the MMC controller and memory card), and data (DAT0 for MMC card, DAT0-3 for SD card) pins.

MMC and SD (1-bit mode) SD (4-bit mode) Communications Communications
The MMC/SD controller follows the MMC/SD protocol for completing any kind of transaction with the multimedia card and secure digital cards. For more detailed information, refer to the supported MMC and SD specifications in Section 1.5 .

2.3.1 MMC/SD Mode Write Sequence

Figure 5 and Table 2 show the signal activity when the MMC/SD controller is in the MMC/SD mode and is
writing data to a memory card. The same block length must be defined in the MMC/SD controller and in the memory card before initiating a data write. In a successful write protocol sequence, the following steps occur:
The MMC/SD controller requests the CSD content.
The card receives the command and sends the content of the CSD register as its response.
If the desired block length, WRITE_BL_LEN value, is different from the default value determined from
the response, the MMC/SD controller sends the block length command.
The card receives the command and sends responses to the command.
The MMC/SD controller requests the card to change states from standby to transfer.
The card receives the command and sends responses to the command.
The MMC/SD controller sends a write command to the card.
The card receives the command and sends responses to the command.
The MMC/SD controller sends a block of data to the card.
The card sends the CRC status to the MMC/SD controller.
The card sends a low BUSY bit until all of the data has been programmed into the flash memory inside
the card.

2.4 Data Flow in the Input/Output FIFO

The MMC/SD controller contains a single 256-bit FIFO that is used for both reading data from the memory card and writing data to the memory card (see Figure 7 ). The FIFO is organized as 32 eight-bit entries. The conversion from the 32-bit bus to the byte format of the FIFO follows the little-endian convention (details are provided in later sections). The read and write FIFOs act as an interim location to store data transferred from/to the card momentarily via the CPU or EDMA. The FIFO includes logic to generate EDMA events and interrupts based on the amount of data in the FIFO and a programmable number of bytes received/transmitted. Flags are set when the FIFO is full or empty.

Peripheral Architecture
A high-level operational description is as follows:
Data is written to the FIFO through the MMC data transmit register (MMCDXR). Data is read from the FIFO through the MMC data receive register (MMCDRR). This is true for both the CPU and EDMA driven transactions; however, for the EDMA transaction, the EDMA access to the FIFO is transparent.
The ACCWD bits in the MMC FIFO control register (MMCFIFOCTL) determines the behavior of the FIFO full (FIFOFUL) and FIFO empty (FIFOEMP) status flags in the MMC status register 1 (MMCST1):
If ACCWD = 00b:
FIFO full is active when the write pointer + 4 > read pointer
FIFO empty is active when the write pointer - 4 < read pointer
If ACCWD = 01b:
FIFO full is active when the write pointer + 3 > read pointer
FIFO empty is active when the write pointer - 3 < read pointer
If ACCWD = 10b:
FIFO full is active when the write pointer + 2 > read pointer
FIFO empty is active when the write pointer - 2 < read pointer
If ACCWD = 11b:
FIFO full is active when the write pointer + 1 > read pointer
FIFO empty is active when the write pointer - 1 < read pointer

FIFO MMCDRR or MMCDXR registers
The CPU or EDMA controller can read 32 bits at a time from the FIFO by reading the MMC data receive register (MMCDRR) and write 32 bits at a time to the FIFO by writing to the MMC data transmit register (MMCDXR). However, since the memory card is an 8-bit device, it transmits or receives one byte at a time. Figure 8 and Figure 9 show how the data-size difference is handled by the data registers in little-endian and big-endian configurations, respectively.

2.6 FIFO Operation During Card Read Operation

2.6.1 EDMA Reads

The FIFO controller manages the activities of reading the data in from the card and issuing EDMA read events. Each time an EDMA read event is issued, an EDMA read request interrupt generates.
Figure 10 provides details of the FIFO controllers operation. As data is received from the card, it is read
into the FIFO. When the number of bytes of data received is equal to the level set by the FIFOLEV bits in MMCFIFOCTL, an EDMA read event is issued and new EDMA events are disabled until the EDMA is done with the transfer issued by the current event. Data is read from the FIFO by way of MMCDRR. The FIFO controller continues to read in data from the card while checking for the EDMA event to occur or for the FIFO to become full. Once the EDMA event finishes, new EDMA events are enabled. If the FIFO fills up, the FIFO controller stops the MMC/SD controller from reading any more data until the FIFO is no longer full.
An EDMA read event generates when the last data arrives, as determined by the MMC block length register (MMCBLEN) and the MMC number of blocks register (MMCNBLK) settings. This EDMA event flushes all of the data that was read from the card from the FIFO.
Each time an EDMA read event generates, an interrupt (DRRDYINT) generates and the DRRDY bit in the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0) is also set.

2.6.2 CPU Reads

The system CPU can also directly read the card data by reading the MMC data receive register (MMCDRR). The MMC/SD peripheral supports reads that are 1, 2, 3, or 4 bytes wide as, shown in
Figure 8 and Figure 9 .
As data is received from the card, it is read into the FIFO. When the number of bytes of data received is equal to the level set by the FIFOLEV bits in MMCFIFOCTL, a DRRDYINT interrupt is issued and the DRRDY bit in the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0) is set. Upon receiving the interrupt, the CPU quickly reads out the bytes received (equal to the level set by the FIFOLEV bits). A DRRDYINT interrupt also generates when the last data arrives as determined by the MMC block length register (MMCBLEN) and the MMC numbers of blocks register (MMCNBLK) settings.

2.7 FIFO Operation During Card Write Operation

2.7.1 EDMA Writes

The FIFO controller manages the activities of accepting data from the CPU or EDMA and passing the data to the MMC/SD controller. The FIFO controller issues EDMA write events as appropriate. Each time an EDMA write event is issued, an EDMA write request interrupt generates. Data is written into the FIFO through MMCDXR. Note that the EDMA access to MMCDXR is transparent.
Figure 11 provides details of the FIFO controller's operation. The CPU or EDMA controller writes data into
the FIFO. The FIFO passes the data to the MMC/SD controller which manages writing the data to the card. When the number of bytes of data in the FIFO is less than the level set by the FIFOLEV bits in MMCFIFOCTL, an EDMA write event is issued and new EDMA events are disabled. The FIFO controller continues to transfer data to the MMC/SD controller while checking for the EDMA event to finish or for the FIFO to become empty. Once the EDMA event finishes, new EDMA events are enabled. If the FIFO becomes empty, the FIFO controller informs the MMC/SD controller.
Each time an EDMA write event generates, an interrupt (DXRDYINT) generates and the DXRDY bit in the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0) is also set.

2.7.2 CPU Writes

The system CPU can also directly write the card data by writing the MMC data transmit register (MMCDXR). The MMC/SD peripheral supports writes that are 1, 2, 3, or 4 bytes wide, as shown in
Figure 8 and Figure 9 .
The CPU makes use of the FIFO to transfer data to the card via the MMC/SD controller. The CPU writes the data to be transferred into MMCDXR. As is the case with the EDMA driven transaction, when the number of data in the FIFO is less than the level set by the FIFOLEV bits in MMCFIFOCTL, a DXRDYINT interrupt generates and the DXRDY bit in the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0) is set to signify to the CPU that space is available for new data.
Peripheral Architecture
Note: When starting the write transaction, the CPU is responsible for getting the FIFO ready to
start transferring data by filling up the FIFO with data prior to invoking/posting the write command to the card. Filling up the FIFO is a requirement since no interrupt/event generates at the start of the write transfer.

2.8 Reset Considerations

The MMC/SD peripheral has two reset sources: hardware reset and software reset.

2.8.1 Software Reset Considerations

A software reset (such as a reset that the emulator generates) does not cause the MMC/SD controller registers to alter. After a software reset, the MMC/SD controller continues to operate as it was configured prior to the reset.

2.8.2 Hardware Reset Considerations

A hardware reset of the processor causes the MMC/SD controller registers to return to their default values after reset.

2.9 Initialization

2.9.1 MMC/SD Controller Initialization

The general procedure for initializing the MMC/SD controller is given in the following steps. Details about the registers or register bit fields to be configured in the MMC/SD mode are in the subsequent subsections.
1. Place the MMC/SD controller in its reset state by setting the CMDRST bit and DATRST bit in the MMC control register (MMCCTL). You can set other bits in MMCCTL after reset.
2. Write the required values to other registers to complete the MMC/SD controller configuration.
3. Clear the CMDRST bit and the DATRST bit in MMCCTL to release the MMC/SD controller from its reset state. It is recommended not to rewrite the values that are written to the other bits of MMCCTL in
Step 1 .
4. Enable the SD_CLK pin so that the memory clock is sent to the memory card by setting the CLKEN bit in the MMC memory clock control register (MMCCLK).
Peripheral Architecture
Note: The MMC/SD cards require a clock frequency of 400 kHz or less for the card initialization
procedure. Make sure that the memory clock confirms this requirement. Once card initialization completes, you can adjust the memory clock up to the lower of the card capabilities or the maximum frequency that is supported.

2.9.2 Initializing the MMC Control Register (MMCCTL)

The bits in the MMC control register (MMCCTL) affect the operation of the MMC/SD controller. The subsections that follow help you decide how to initialize each of control register bits.
In the MMC/SD mode, the MMC/SD controller must know how wide the data bus must be for the memory card that is connected. If an MMC card is connected, specify a 1-bit data bus (WIDTH = 0 in MMCCTL); if an SD card is connected, specify a 4-bit data bus (WIDTH = 1 in MMCCTL).
To place the MMC/SD controller in its reset state and disable it, set the CMDRST bit and DATRST bit in MMCCTL. The first step of the MMC/SD controller initialization process is to disable both sets of logic. When initialization is complete, but before you enable the SD_CLK pin, clear the CMDRST bit and DATRST bit in MMCCTL to enable the MMC/SD controller.

Peripheral Architecture

2.9.3 Initializing the Clock Controller Registers (MMCCLK)

A clock divider in the MMC/SD controller divides-down the function clock to produce the memory clock. Load the divide-down value into the CLKRT bits in the MMC memory clock control register (MMCCLK). The divide-down value is determined by the following equation:
memory clock frequency = function clock frequency/(2 × (CLKRT + 1))
The CLKEN bit in MMCCLK determines whether the memory clock appears on the SD_CLK pin. If you clear the CLKEN to 0, the memory clock is not provided except when required.

2.9.4 Initialize the Interrupt Mask Register (MMCIM)

The bits in the MMC interrupt mask register (MMCIM) individually enable or disable the interrupt requests. To enable the associated interrupt request, set the corresponding bit in MMCIM. To disable the associated interrupt request, clear the corresponding bit. Load zeros into the bits that are not used in the MMC/SD mode.

2.9.5 Initialize the Time-Out Registers (MMCTOR and MMCTOD)

Specify the time-out period for responses using the MMC response time-out register (MMCTOR) and the time-out period for reading data using the MMC data read time-out register (MMCTOD).
When the MMC/SD controller sends a command to a memory card, it must often wait for a response. The MMC/SD controller can wait indefinitely or up to 255 memory clock cycles. If you load 0 into MMCTOR, the MMC/SD controller waits indefinitely for a response. If you load a nonzero value into MMCTOR, the MMC/SD controller stops waiting after the specified number of memory clock cycles and then sets a response time-out flag (TOUTRS) in the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0). If you enable the associated interrupt request, the MMC/SD controller also sends an interrupt request to the ARM.
When the MMC/SD controller requests data from a memory card, it can wait indefinitely for that data or it can stop waiting after a programmable number of cycles. If you load 0 into MMCTOD, the MMC/SD controller waits indefinitely. If you load a nonzero value into MMCTOD, the MMC/SD controller waits the specified number of memory clock cycles and then sets a read data time-out flag (TOUTRD) in MMCST0. If you enable the associated interrupt request, the MMC/SD controller also sends an interrupt request to the ARM.

2.9.6 Initialize the Data Block Registers (MMCBLEN and MMCNBLK)

Specify the number of bytes in a data block in the MMC block length register (MMCBLEN) and the number of blocks in a multiple-block transfer in the MMC number of blocks register (MMCNBLK).
You must define the size for each block of data transferred between the MMC/SD controller and a memory card in MMCBLEN. The valid size depends on the type of read/write operations. A length of 0 bytes is prohibited.
For multiple-block transfers, you must specify how many blocks of data are to be transferred between the MMC/SD controller and a memory card. You can specify an infinite number of blocks by loading 0 into MMCNBLK. When MMCNBLK = 0, the MMC/SD controller continues to transfer data blocks until the transferring is stopped with a STOP_TRANSMISSION command. To transfer a specific number of blocks, load MMCNBLK with a value from 1 to 65 535.

2.9.7 Monitoring Activity in the MMC/SD Mode

This section describes registers and specific register bits that you can use to obtain the status of the MMC/SD controller in the MMC/SD mode. You can determine the status of the MMC/SD controller by reading the bits in the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0) and MMC status register 1 (MMCST1).
2.9.7.1 Determining Whether New Data is Available in MMCDRR
The MMC/SD controller sets the DRRDY bit in MMCST0 when the data in the FIFO is greater than the threshold set in the MMC FIFO control register (MMCFIFOCTL). If the interrupt request is enabled (EDRRDY = 1 in MMCIM), the ARM is notified of the event by an interrupt. A read of the MMC data receive register (MMCDDR) clears the DRRDY flag.
2.9.7.2 Verifying that MMCDXR is Ready to Accept New Data
The MMC/SD controller sets the DXRDY bit in MMCST0 when the amount of data in the FIFO is less than the threshold set in the MMC FIFO control register (MMCFIFOCTL). If the interrupt request is enabled (EDXRDY = 1 in MMCIM), the ARM is notified of the event by an interrupt.
2.9.7.3 Checking for CRC Errors
The MMC/SD controller sets the CRCRS, CRCRD, and CRCWR bits in MMCST0 in response to the corresponding CRC errors of command response, data read, and data write. If the interrupt request is enabled (ECRCRS/ECRCRD/ECRCWR = 1 in MMCIM), the ARM is notified of the CRC error by an interrupt.
Peripheral Architecture
2.9.7.4 Checking for Time-Out Events
The MMC/SD controller sets the TOUTRS and TOUTRD bits in MMCST0 in response to the corresponding command response or data read time-out event. If the interrupt request is enabled (ETOUTRS/ETOUTRD = 1 in MMCIM), the ARM is notified of the event by an interrupt.
2.9.7.5 Determining When a Response/Command is Done
The MMC/SD controller sets the RSPDNE bit in MMCST0 when the response is done; or in the case of commands that do not require a response, when the command is done. If the interrupt request is enabled (ERSPDNE = 1 in MMCIM), the ARM is also notified.
2.9.7.6 Determining Whether the Memory Card is Busy
The card sends a busy signal either when waiting for an R1b-type response or when programming the last write data into its flash memory. The MMC/SD controller has two flags to notify you whether the memory card is sending a busy signal. The two flags are complements of each other:
The BSYDNE flag in MMCST0 is set if the card did not send or is not sending a busy signal when the MMC/SD controller is expecting a busy signal (BSYEXP = 1 in MMCCMD). The interrupt by this bit is enabled by a corresponding interrupt enable bit (EBSYDNE = 1 in MMCIM).
The BUSY flag in MMCST1 is set when a busy signal is received from the card.
2.9.7.7 Determining Whether a Data Transfer is Done
The MMC/SD controller sets the DATDNE bit in MMCST0 when all of the bytes of a data transfer have been transmitted/received. The DATDNE bit is polled to determine when to stop writing to the data transmit register (for a write operation) or when to stop reading from the data receive register (for a read operation). The ARM is also notified of the time-out event by an interrupt if the interrupt request is enabled (EDATDNE = 1 in MMCIM).

Peripheral Architecture
2.9.7.8 Determining When Last Data has Been Written to Card (SanDisk SD cards)
Some SanDisk brand SD™ cards exhibit a behavior that requires a multiple-block write command to terminate with a STOP (CMD12) command before the data write sequence completes. To enable support of this function, the transfer done interrupt (TRNDNE) is provided. Set the ETRNDNE bit in MMCIM to enable the TRNDNE interrupt. This interrupt is issued when the last byte of data (as defined by MMCNBLK and MMCBLEN) is transferred from the FIFO to the output shift register. The CPU should respond to this interrupt by sending a STOP command to the card. This interrupt differs from DATDNE by timing. DATDNE does not occur until after the CRC and memory programming are complete.
2.9.7.9 Checking For a Data Transmit Empty Condition
During transmission, a data value is passed from the MMC data transmit register (MMCDXR) to the data transmit shift register. The data is then passed from the shift register to the memory card one bit at a time. The DXEMP bit in MMCST1 indicates when the shift register is empty.
Typically, the DXEMP bit is not used to control data transfers; rather, it is checked during recovery from an error condition. There is no interrupt associated with the DXEMP bit.
2.9.7.10 Checking for a Data Receive Full Condition
During reception, the data receive shift register accepts a data value one bit at a time. The entire value is then passed from the shift register to the MMC data receive register (MMCDRR). The DRFUL bit in MMCST1 indicates that when the shift register is full no new bits can be shifted in from the memory card.
The DRFUL bit is not typically used to control data transfers; rather, it is checked during recovery from an error condition. There is no interrupt associated with the DRFUL bit.
2.9.7.11 Checking the Status of the SD_CLK Pin
Read the CLKSTP bit in MMCST1 to determine whether the memory clock has been stopped on the SD_CLK pin.
2.9.7.12 Checking the Remaining Block Count During a Multiple-Block Transfer
During a transfer of multiple data blocks, the MMC number of blocks counter register (MMCNBLC) indicates how many blocks are remaining to be transferred. The MMCNBLC is a read-only register.

2.10 Interrupt Support

2.10.1 Interrupt Events and Requests

The MMC/SD controller generates the interrupt requests described in Table 4 . When an interrupt event occurs, its flag bit is set in the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0). If the enable bits corresponding to each flag are set in the MMC interrupt mask register (MMCIM), an interrupt request generates. All such requests are multiplexed to a single MMC/SD interrupt request from the MMC/SD peripheral to the ARM CPU.
The MMC/SD interrupts are part of the maskable ARM interrupts. The ARM interrupt 26 (INT26) is associated with MMC functions and the ARM interrupt 27 (INT27) is associated with SD functions. The interrupt service routine (ISR) for the MMC/SD interrupt can determine the event that caused the interrupt by checking the bits in MMCST0. When MMCST0 is read, all register bits automatically clear. During a middle of data transfer, the DXRDY and DRRDY bits are set during every 128-byte or 256-byte transfer, depending on the the MMC FIFO control register (MMCFIFOCTL) setting. Performing a write and a read in response to the interrupt generated by the FIFO automatically clears the corresponding interrupt bit/flag.
Note: You must be aware that an emulation read of the status register clears the interrupt status
flags. To avoid inadvertently clearing the flag, be careful while monitoring MMCST0 via the debugger.

2.10.2 Interrupt Multiplexing

The interrupts from the MMC/SD peripheral to the ARM CPU are not multiplexed with any other interrupt source.
Peripheral Architecture
Table 4. Description of MMC/SD Interrupt Requests

DXRDYINT MMCDXR is ready to transmit new data (data in FIFO is less than threshold). CRCRSINT A CRC error was detected in a response from the memory card. CRCRDINT A CRC error was detected in the data read from the memory card. CRCWRINT A CRC error was detected in the data written to the memory card. TOUTRSINT A time-out occurred while the MMC controller was waiting for a response to a command. TOUTRDINT A time-out occurred while the MMC controller was waiting for the data from the memory card. RSPDNEINT For a command that requires a response: The MMC controller has received the response without a CRC error.
For a command that does not require a response: The MMC controller has finished sending the command. BSYDNEINT The memory card stops or is no longer sending a busy signal when the MMC controller is expecting a busy signal. DATDNEINT For read operations: The MMC controller has received data without a CRC error.

2.11 DMA Event Support

The MMC/SD controller is capable of generating EDMA events for both read and write operations in order to request service from an EDMA controller. Based on the FIFO threshold setting, the EDMA event signals generate every time 128-bit or 256-bit data is transferred from the FIFO.

2.12 Power Management

You can put the MMC/SD peripheral in reduced-power modes to conserve power during periods of low activity. The processor power and sleep controller (PSC) controls the power management of the MMC/SD peripheral. The PSC acts as a master controller for power management for all of the peripherals on the device. For detailed information on power management procedures using the PSC, see the TMS320DM644x DMSoC ARM Subsystem Reference Guide (SPRUE14 ).

2.13 Emulation Considerations

The MMC/SD peripheral is not affected by emulation halt events (such as breakpoints).

3 Procedures for Common Operations

3.1 Card Identification Operation

Before the MMC/SD controller starts data transfers to or from memory cards in the MMC/SD native mode, it must first identify how many cards are present on the bus and configure them. For each card that responds to the ALL_SEND_CID broadcast command, the controller reads that card’s unique card identification address (CID) and then assigns it a relative address (RCA). This address is much shorter than the CID and the MMC/SD controller uses this address to identify the card in all future commands that involve the card.
Only one card completes the response to ALL_SEND_CID at any one time. The absence of any response to ALL_SEND_CID indicates that all cards have been identified and configured.
Note: The following steps assume that the MMC/SD controller is configured to operate in MMC
or SD mode, and the memory clock frequency on the CLK pin is set for 400 kHz or less.
The procedure for a card identification operation is issued in open-drain bus mode for both MMC and SD cards.

3.1.1 MMC Card Identification Procedure

The MMC card identification procedure is:
1. Use the MMC command register (MMCCMD) to issue the GO_IDLE_STATE (CMD0) command to the MMC cards. Using MMCCMD to issue the CMD0 command puts all cards (MMC and SD) in the idle state and no response from the cards is expected.
2. Use MMCCMD to issue the SEND_OP_CMD (CMD1) command with the voltage range supported (R3 response, if it is successful; R1b response, if the card is expected to be busy). Using MMCCMD to issue the CMD1 command allows the host to identify and reject cards that do not match the VDD range that the host supports.
3. If the response in step 2 is R1b (that is, the card is still busy due to power up), then go back to step 2. If the card is not busy, continue to step 4.
4. Use MMCCMD to send the ALL_SEND_CID (CMD2) command (R2 response is expected) to the MMC cards. Using MMCCMD to send the CMD2 command notifies all cards to send their unique card identification (CID) number. There should only be one card that successfully sends its full CID number to the host. The successful card goes into the identification state and does not respond to this command again.
5. Use MMCMD to issue the SET_RELATIVE_ADDR (CMD3) command (R1 response is expected) in order to assign an address that is shorter than the CID number that will be used in the future to address the card in the future data transfer mode.
Procedures for Common Operations
Note: This command is only addressed to the card that successfully sent its CID number in
step 4. This card now goes into standby mode. This card also changes its output drivers from open-drain to push-pull. It stops replying to the CMD2 command, allowing for the identification of other cards.
6. Repeat step 4 and step 5 to identify and assign relative addresses to all remaining cards until no card responds to the CMD1 command. No card responding within 5 memory clock cycles indicates that all cards have been identified and the MMC card identification procedure terminates.
The sequence of events in this operation is shown in Figure 12 .

Figure 12. MMC Card Identification Procedure

3.1.2 SD Card Identification Procedure

The SD card identification procedure is:
1. Use the MMC command register (MMCCMD) to issue the GO_IDLE_STATE (CMD0) command to the MMC cards. Using MMCMD to issue the CMD0 command puts all cards (MMC and SD) in the idle state and no response from the cards is expected.
2. Use MMCCMD to issue the APP_CMD (CMD55) command (R1 response is expected) to indicate that the command that follows is an application command.
3. Use MMCCMD to send the SD_SEND_OP_COND (ACMD41) command with the voltage range supported (R3 response is expected) to SD cards. Using MMCCMD to send the ACMD41 command allows the host to identify and reject cards that do not match the VDD range that the host supports.
4. Use MMCCMD to send the ALL_SEND_CID (CMD2) command (R2 response is expected) to the MMC cards. Using MMCCMD to send the CMD2 command notifies all cards to send their unique card identification (CID) number. There should only be one card that successfully sends its full CID number to the host. The successful card goes into identification state and does not respond to this command again.
5. Use MMCMD to issue the SEND_RELATIVE_ADDR (CMD3) command (R1 response is expected) in order to ask the card to publish a new relative address for future use to address the card in data transfer mode.
Note: This command is only addressed to the card that successfully sent its CID number in
step 4. This card now goes into standby mode. This card also changes its output drivers from open-drain to push-pull. It stops replying to the CMD2 command, allowing for the identification of other cards.

3.2 MMC/SD Mode Single-Block Write Operation Using CPU

To perform a single-block write, the block length must be 512 bytes and the same length needs to be set in both the MMC/SD controller and the memory card. The procedure for this operation is:
1. Write the card’s relative address to the MMC argument registers (MMCARGH and MMCARGL). Load the higher part of the address to MMCARGH and the low part of the address to MMCARGL.
2. Use the MMC command register (MMCCMD) to send the SELECT/DESELECT_CARD broadcast command. This selects the addressed card and deselects the others.
3. Write the destination start address to the MMC argument registers. Load the high part to the MMCARGH register and the low part to MMCARGL.
4. Read the card CSD to determine the card’s maximum block length.
5. Use MMCCMD to send the SET_BLOCKLEN command (if the block length is different than the length used in the previous operation). The block length must be a multiple of 512 bytes and less then the maximum block length specified in the CSD.
6. Reset the FIFO (FIFORST bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
7. Set the FIFO direction to transmit (FIFODIR bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
8. Set the access width (ACCWD bits in MMCFIFOCTL).
9. Enable the MMC interrupt.
10. Enable the DXRDYINT interrupt.
11. Write the first 32 bytes of the data block to the data transmit register (MMCDXR).
12. Use MMCCMD to send the WRITE_BLOCK command to the card.
13. Wait for the MMC interrupt.
14. Use the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0) to check for errors and the status of the FIFO. If all of the data has not been written and if the FIFO is not full, go to step 15. If all of the data has been written, stop.
15. Write the next n bytes (this depends on the setting of the FIFOLEV bit in MMCFIFOCTL: 0 = 16 bytes, 1 = 32 bytes) of the data block to the MMC data transmit register (MMCDXR) and go to step 13.
The sequence of events in this operation is shown in Figure 14 .

Procedures for Common Operations

3.3 MMC/SD Mode Single-Block Write Operation Using the EDMA

To perform a single-block write, the block length must be 512 bytes and the same length must be set in both the MMC/SD controller and the card.
The procedure for this operation is as follows:
1. Write the card’s relative address to the MMC argument registers (MMCARGH and MMCARGL). Load the high part of the address to MMCARGH and the low part of the address to MMCARGL.
2. Read the card CSD to determine the card's maximum block length.
3. Use the MMC command register (MMCCMD) to send the SET_BLOCKLEN command (if the block length is different than the length used in the previous operation). The block length must be a multiple of 512 bytes and less then the maximum block length specified in the CSD.
4. Reset the FIFO (FIFORST bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
5. Set the FIFO direction to transmit (FIFODIR bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
6. Set the access width (ACCWD bits in MMCFIFOCTL).
7. Set the FIFO threshold (FIFOLEV bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
8. Set up the DMA (DMA size must be greater than or equal to the FIFOLEV setting).
9. Use MMCCMD to send the WRITE _BLOCK command to the card (set the DMATRIG bit in MMCCMD to trigger the first DMA).
10. Wait for the DMA sequence to complete or for the DATADNE flag in the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0) to be set.
11. Use MMCST0 to check for errors.

3.4 MMC/SD Mode Single-Block Read Operation Using the CPU

To perform a single-block read, the same block length must be set in both the MMC/SD controller and the card.
The procedure for this operation is as follows:
1. Write the card’s relative address to the MMC argument registers (MMCARGH and MMCARGL). Load the high part of the address to MCARGH and the low part of the address to MMCARGL.
2. Use the MMC command register (MMCCMD) to send the SELECT/DESELECT_CARD broadcast command. This selects the addressed card and deselects the others.
3. Write the source start address to the MMC argument registers. Load the high part to MMCARGH and the low part to MMCARGL.
4. Read card CSD to determine the card's maximum block length.
5. Use MMCCMD to send the SET_BLOCKLEN command (if the block length is different than the length used in the previous operation). The block length must be a multiple of 512 bytes and less then the maximum block length specified in the CSD.
6. Reset the FIFO (FIFORST bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
7. Set the FIFO direction to receive (FIFODIR bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
8. Set the access width (ACCWD bits in MMCFIFOCTL).
9. Set the FIFO threshold (FIFOLEV bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
10. Enable the MMC interrupt.
11. Enable the DRRDYINT interrupt.
12. Use MMCCMD to send the READ_SINGLE_BLOCK command.
13. Wait for the MMC interrupt.
14. Use the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0) to check for errors and the status of the FIFO. If the FIFO is not empty, go to step 15. If the all of the data has been read, stop.
15. Read the next n bytes of data (this depends on the setting of the FIFOLEV bit in MMCFIFOCTL: 0 = 16 bytes, 1 = 32 bytes) from the MMC data receive register (MMCDRR) and go to step 13.
The sequence of events in this operation is shown in Figure 15 .

3.6 MMC/SD Mode Multiple-Block Write Operation Using CPU

To perform a multiple-block write, the same block length needs to be set in both the MMC/SD controller and the card.
Note: The procedure in this section uses a STOP_TRANSMISSION command to end the block transfer. This assumes that the value in the MMC number of blocks counter register (MMCNBLK) is 0. A multiple-block operation terminates itself if you load MMCNBLK with the exact number of blocks you want transferred.
The procedure for this operation is:
1. Write the card’s relative address to the MMC argument registers (MMCARGH and MMCARGL). Load the high part of the address to MMCARGH and the low part of the address to MMCARGL.
2. Read card CSD to determine the card's maximum block length.
3. Use the MMC command register (MMCCMD) to send the SET_BLOCKLEN command (if the block length is different than the length used in the previous operation). The block length must be a multiple of 512 bytes and less then the maximum block length specified in the CSD.
4. Reset the FIFO (FIFORST bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
5. Set the FIFO direction to transmit (FIFODIR bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
6. Set the access width (ACCWD bits in MMCFIFOCTL).
7. Set the FIFO threshold (FIFOLEV bit in MMCFIFOCTL).
8. Enable the MMC interrupt.
9. Enable DXRDYINT interrupt.
10. Write the first 32 bytes of the data block to the MMC data transmit register (MMCDXR).
11. Use MMCCMD to send the WRITE_MULTI_BLOCK command to the card.
12. Wait for MMC interrupt.
13. Use the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0) to check for errors and to determine the status of the FIFO. If more bytes are to be written and the FIFO is not full, go to step 14. If the all of the data has been written, go to step 15.
14. Write the next n bytes (depends on setting of FIFOLEV in MMCFIFOCTL: 0 = 16 bytes, 1 = 32 bytes) of the data block to MMCDXR, and go to step 12.
15. Use MMCCMD to send the STOP_TRANSMISSION command.
The sequence of events in this operation is shown in Figure 16 .

4.3 MMC Status Register 0 (MMCST0)

The MMC status register 0 (MMCST0) records specific events or errors. The transition from 0 to 1 on each bit in MMCST0 can cause an interrupt signal to be sent to the CPU. If an interrupt is desired, set the corresponding interrupt enable bit in the MMC interrupt mask register (MMCIM).
In most cases, when a status bit is read, it is cleared. The two exceptions are the DRRDY bit and the DXRDY bit; these bits are cleared only in response to the functional events described for them in Table 8 , or in response to a hardware reset.

In this situation, the data portion detects this and waits, releasing the busy state only when the command sent was R1b (to be specific, command with BSYEXP bit), otherwise it continues transferring data.
2) Bit 12 (TRNDNE) indicates that the last byte of a transfer has been completed. Bit 0 (DATDNE) occurs at end of a transfer, but not until the CRC check and programming has completed.

4.6 MMC Response Time-Out Register (MMCTOR)

The MMC response time-out register (MMCTOR) defines how long the MMC controller waits for a response from a memory card before recording a time-out condition in the TOUTRS bit of the MMC status register 0 (MMCST0). If the corresponding ETOUTRS bit in the MMC interrupt mask register (MMCIM) is set, an interrupt is generated when the TOUTRS bit is set in MMCST0. If a memory card should require a longer time-out period than MMCTOR can provide, a software time-out mechanism can be implemented.
The MMC response time-out register (MMCTOR) is shown in Figure 23 and described in Table 11 .

4.13 MMC Command Register (MMCCMD)

Note: Writing to the MMC command register (MMCCMD) causes the MMC controller to send the
programmed command. Therefore, the MMC argument register (MMCARGHL) must be loaded properly before a write to MMCCMD.
The MMC command register (MMCCMD) specifies the type of command to be sent and defines the operation (command, response, additional activity) for the MMC controller. The content of MMCCMD is kept after the transfer to the transmit shift register.
When the ARM writes to MMCCMD, the MMC controller sends the programmed command, including any arguments in the MMC argument register (MMCARGHL). For the format of a command (index, arguments, and other bits), see Figure 31 and Table 19 .

Note: Do not modify the MMC argument register (MMCARGHL) while it is being used for an
operation.
The MMC argument register (MMCARGHL) specifies the arguments to be sent with the command specified in the MMC command register (MMCCMD). Writing to MMCCMD causes the MMC controller to send a command; therefore, MMCARGHL must be configured before writing to MMCCMD. The content of MMCARGHL is kept after the transfer to the shift register; however, modification to MMCARGHL is not allowed during a sending operation.

4.15 MMC Response Registers (MMCRSP0-MMCRSP7)

Each command has a preset response type. When the MMC controller receives a response, it is stored in some or all of the eight MMC response registers (MMCRSP7-MMCRSP0). The response registers are updated as the responses arrive, even if the CPU has not read the previous contents.
As shown in Figure 33 , Figure 34 , Figure 35 , and Figure 36 each of the MMC response registers holds up to 16 bits. Table 21 and Table 22 show the format for each type of response and which MMC response registers are used for the bits of the response. The first byte of the response is a command index byte and is stored in the MMC command index register (MMCCIDX).
