These can be accessed only by corresponding commands (see Chapter 4.7). The OCR, CID, CSD and SCR registers carry the card/content specific information, while the RCA and DSR registers are configuration registers storing actual configuration parameters. 1. OCR register The 32-bit operation conditions register stores the VDD voltage profile of the card. Additionally, this register includes status information bits. One status bit is set if the card power up procedure has been finished. This register includes another status bit indicating the card capacity status after set power up status bit. The OCR register shall be implemented by the cards. The 32-bit operation conditions register stores the VDD voltage profile of the card. Bit 7 of OCR is newly defined for Dual Voltage Card and set to 0 in default. If a Dual Voltage Card does not receive CMD8, OCR bit 7 in the response indicates 0, and the Dual Voltage Card which received CMD8, sets this bit to 1. Additionally, this register includes 2 more status information bits. Bit 31 - Card power up status bit, this status bit is set if the card power up procedure has been finished. Bit 30 - Card capacity status bit, this status bit is set to 1 if card is High Capacity SD Memory Card. 0 indicates that the card is Standard Capacity SD Memory Card. The Card Capacity status bit is valid after the card power up procedure is completed and the card power up status bit is set to 1. The Host shall read this status bit to identify a Standard or High Capacity SD Memory Card. The OCR register shall be implemented by the cards. OCR Register Definition Transcend Information Inc. 11 m miiccrro oS SD DH HC CC Caarrd d sseerriieess High Capacity microSD Card 1) This bit is valid only when the card power up status bit is set. 2) This bit is set to LOW if the card has not finished the power up routine. The supported voltage range is coded as shown in Table 5-1. A voltage range is not supported if the corresponding bit value is set to LOW. As long as the card is busy, the corresponding bit (31) is set to LOW. 2. CID Register The Card IDentification (CID) register is 128 bits wide. It contains the card identification information used during the card identification phase. Every individual flash card shall have a unique identification number. The structure of the CID register is defined in the following paragraphs: • MID An 8-bit binary number that identifies the card manufacturer. The MID number is controlled, defined, and allocated to a SD Memory Card manufacturer by the SD-3C, LLC. This procedure is established to ensure uniqueness of the CID register. • OID A 2-character ASCII string that identifies the card OEM and/or the card contents (when used as a distribution media either on ROM or FLASH cards). The OID number is controlled, defined, and allocated to a SD Memory Card manufacturer by the SD-3C, LLC. This procedure is established to ensure uniqueness of the CID register. Note: SD-3C, LLC licenses companies that wish to manufacture and/or sell SD Memory Cards, including but not limited to flash memory, ROM, OTP, RAM, and SDIO Combo Cards. SD-3C, LLC is a limited liability company established by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. Ltd., SanDisk Corporation and Toshiba Corporation. • PNM The product name is a string, 5 ASCII characters long. • PRV Transcend Information Inc. 12 m miiccrro oS SD DH HC CC Caarrd d sseerriieess High Capacity microSD Card The product revision is composed of two Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) digits, four bits each, representing an “n.m” revision number. The “n” is the most significant nibble and “m” is the least significant nibble. As an example, the PRV binary value field for product revision “6.2” will be: 0110 0010 • PSN The Serial Number is 32 bits of binary number. • MDT The manufacturing date composed of two hexadecimal digits, one is 8 bit representing the year(y) and the other is four bits representing the month(m). The “m” field [11:8] is the month code. 1 = January. The “y” field [19:12] is the year code. 0 = 2000. As an example, the binary value of the Date field for production date “April 2001” will be: 00000001 0100. • CRC CRC7 checksum (7 bits). 3. CSD Register Table 5-16 shows Definition of the CSD for the High Capacity SD Memory Card (CSD Version 2.0). The following sections describe the CSD fields and the relevant data types for the High Capacity SD Memory Card. CSD Version 2.0 is applied to only the High Capacity SD Memory Card. The field name in parenthesis is set to fixed value and indicates that the host is not necessary to refer these fields. The fixed values enables host, which refers to these fields, to keep compatibility to CSD Version 1.0. The Cell Type field is coded as follows: R = readable, W(1) = writable once, W = multiple writable. Transcend Information Inc. 13 m miiccrro oS SD DH HC CC Caarrd d sseerriieess High Capacity microSD Card The CSD Register Fields (CSD Version 2.0) The following sections describe the CSD fields and the relevant data types. If not explicitly defined otherwise, all bit strings are interpreted as binary coded numbers starting with the left bit first. • CSD_STRUCTURE Field structures of the CSD register are different depend on the Physical Specification Version and Card Capacity. The CSD_STRUCTURE field in the CSD register indicates its structure version. The following table shows the version number of the related CSD structure. Transcend Information Inc. 14 m miiccrro oS SD DH HC CC Caarrd d sseerriieess High Capacity microSD Card CSD Register Structure • TAAC This field is fixed to 0Eh, which indicates 1 ms. The host should not use TAAC, NSAC, and R2W_FACTOR to calculate timeout and should uses fixed timeout values for read and write operations (See 4.6.2). • NSAC This field is fixed to 00h. NSAC should not be used to calculate time-out values. • TRAN_SPEED The following table defines the maximum data transfer rate per one data line - TRAN_SPEED: Transcend Information Inc. 15 m miiccrro oS SD DH HC CC Caarrd d sseerriieess High Capacity microSD Card Note that for current SD Memory Cards that field must be always 0_0110_010b (032h) which is equal to 25MHz - the mandatory maximum operating frequency of SD Memory Card. In High-Speed mode, that field must be always 0_1011_010b (05Ah) which is equal to 50MHz. And when the timing mode returns to the default by CMD6 or CMD0 command, its value will be 032h. • CCC The SD Memory Card command set is divided into subsets (command classes). The card command class register CCC defines which command classes are supported by this card. A value of ‘1’ in a CCC bit means that the corresponding command class is supported. • READ_BL_LEN This field is fixed to 9h, which indicates READ_BL_LEN=512 Byte. • READ_BL_PARTIAL This field is fixed to 0, which indicates partial block read is inhibited and only unit of block access is allowed. • WRITE_BLK_MISALIGN This field is fixed to 0, which indicates write access crossing physical block boundaries is always disabled in High Capacity SD Memory Card. • READ_BLK_MISALIGN This field is fixed to 0, which indicates read access crossing physical block boundaries is always disabled in High Capacity SD Memory Card. • DSR_IMP Defines if the configurable driver stage is integrated on the card. If set, a driver stage register (DSR)must be implemented also. Transcend Information Inc. 16 m miiccrro oS SD DH HC CC Caarrd d sseerriieess High Capacity microSD Card • C_SIZE This field is expanded to 22 bits and can indicate up to 2 TBytes (It is the same as the maximum memory space specified by a 32-bit block address.) This parameter is used to calculate the user data area capacity in the SD memory card (not include the protected area). The user data area capacity is calculated from C_SIZE as follows: memory capacity = (C_SIZE+1) * 512K byte As the maximum capacity of the Physical Layer Specification Version 2.00 is 32 GB, the upper 6 bits of this field shall be set to 0. • ERASE_BLK_EN This field is fixed to 1, which means the host can erase one or multiple units of 512 bytes. • SECTOR_SIZE This field is fixed to 7Fh, which indicates 64 KBytes. This value does not relate to erase operation. Version 2.00 cards indicates memory boundary by AU size and this field should not be used. • WP_GRP_SIZE This field is fixed to 00h. The High Capacity SD Memory Card does not support write protected groups. • WP_GRP_ENABLE This field is fixed to 0. The High Capacity SD Memory Card does not support write protected groups. • R2W_FACTOR This field is fixed to 2h, which indicates 4 multiples. Write timeout can be calculated by multiplying the read access time and R2W_FACTOR. However, the host should not use this factor and should use 250 ms for write timeout • WRITE_BL_LEN This field is fixed to 9h, which indicates WRITE_BL_LEN=512 Byte. • WRITE_BL_PARTIAL This field is fixed to 0, which indicates partial block read is inhibited and only unit of block access is allowed. • FILE_FORMAT_GRP This field is set to 0. Host should not use this field. Transcend Information Inc. 17 m miiccrro oS SD DH HC CC Caarrd d sseerriieess High Capacity microSD Card • COPY Defines if the contents is original (= ‘0’) or has been copied (=’1’). The COPY bit for OTP and MTPdevices, sold to end consumers, is set to ‘1’ which identifies the card contents as a copy. The COPY bit is an one time programmable bit. • PERM_WRITE_PROTECT Permanently protects the whole card content against overwriting or erasing (all write and erase commands for this card are permanently disabled). The default value is ‘0’, i.e. not permanently write protected. • TMP_WRITE_PROTECT Temporarily protects the whole card content from being overwritten or erased (all write and erase commands for this card are temporarily disabled). This bit can be set and reset. The default value is ‘0’, i.e. not write protected. • FILE_FORMAT This field is set to 0. Host should not use this field. • CRC The CRC field carries the check sum for the CSD contents. The checksum has to be recalculated by the host for any CSD modification. The default corresponds to the initial CSD contents. The following table lists the correspondence between the CSD entries and the command classes. A ‘+’ entry indicates that the CSD field affects the commands of the related command class. Transcend Information Inc. 18 m miiccrro oS SD DH HC CC Caarrd d sseerriieess High Capacity microSD Card 4. RCA Register The writable 16-bit relative card address register carries the card address that is published by the card during the card identification. This address is used for the addressed host-card communication after the card identification procedure. The default value of the RCA register is 0x0000. The value0x0000 is reserved to set all cards into the Stand-by State with CMD7. 5. DSR Register (Optional) The 16-bit driver stage register is described in detail in Chapter 6.5. It can be optionally used to improve the bus performance for extended operating conditions (depending on parameters like bus length, transfer rate or number of cards). The CSD register carries the information about the DSR register usage. The default value of the DSR register is Transcend Information Inc. 19 m miiccrro oS SD DH HC CC Caarrd d sseerriieess High Capacity microSD Card 0x404. 6. SCR Register In addition to the CSD register there is another configuration register that named - SD CARD Configuration Register (SCR). SCR provides information on SD Memory Card's special features that were configured into the given card. The size of SCR register is 64 bit. This register shall be set in the factory by the SD Memory Card manufacturer. The following table describes the SCR register content. • SCR_STRUCTURE Version number of the related SCR structure in the SD Memory Card Physical Layer Specification. SCR Register Structure Version • SD_SPEC Describes the SD Memory Card Physical Layer Specification version supported by this card. SD_SPEC 0 1 2 3-15 Physical Layer Specification Version Number Version 1.0-1.01 Version 1.10 Version 2.00 reserved Physical Layer Specification Version • DATA_STAT_AFTER_ERASE Transcend Information Inc. 20 m miiccrro oS SD DH HC CC Caarrd d sseerriieess High Capacity microSD Card Defines the data status after erase, whether it is ‘0’ or ‘1’ (the status is card vendor dependent). • SD_SECURITY Describes the security algorithm supported by the card. SD Supported Security Algorithm Note that it is mandatory for a regular writable SD Memory Card to support Security Protocol. For ROM (Read Only) and OTP (One Time Programmable) types of the SD Memory Card, the security feature is optional. In the case of Standard Capacity SD Memory Card, this field shall be set to 2 (Version 1.01). In the case of High Capacity SD Memory Card, this field shall be set to 3 (Version 2.00). • SD_BUS_WIDTHS Describes all the DAT bus widths that are supported by this card. Since SD Memory Card shall support at least the two bus modes 1bit or 4bit width then any SD Card shall set at least bits 0 and 2 (SD_BUS_WIDTH="0101").
