SDMMC Host Driver¶

Overview¶

ESP32-S3’s SDMMC host peripheral has two slots. Each slot can be used independently to connect to an SD card, SDIO device or eMMC chip.

Both slots (SDMMC_HOST_SLOT_0, SDMMC_HOST_SLOT_1) support 1-, 4- and 8-line SD interface. The slots are connected to ESP32-S3 GPIOs using GPIO matrix. This means that any GPIO may be used for each of the SD card signals.

Supported Speed Modes¶

SDMMC Host driver supports the following speed modes:

Default Speed (20 MHz), 1/4-line (with SD cards), and 1/4/8-line (with 3.3 V eMMC)
High Speed (40 MHz), 1/4-line (with SD cards), and 1/4/8-line (with 3.3 V eMMC)
High Speed DDR (40 MHz), 4-line (with 3.3 V eMMC)

Speed modes not supported at present:

High Speed DDR mode, 8-line eMMC
UHS-I 1.8 V modes, 4-line SD cards

Using the SDMMC Host Driver¶

Of all the functions listed below, only the following ones will be used directly by most applications:

sdmmc_host_init()
sdmmc_host_init_slot()
sdmmc_host_deinit()

Other functions, such as the ones given below, will be called by the SD/MMC protocol layer via function pointers in the sdmmc_host_t structure:

sdmmc_host_set_bus_width()
sdmmc_host_set_card_clk()
sdmmc_host_do_transaction()

Configuring Bus Width and Frequency¶

With the default initializers for sdmmc_host_t and sdmmc_slot_config_t (SDMMC_HOST_DEFAULT and SDMMC_SLOT_CONFIG_DEFAULT), SDMMC Host driver will attempt to use the widest bus supported by the card (4 lines for SD, 8 lines for eMMC) and the frequency of 20 MHz.

In the designs where communication at 40 MHz frequency can be achieved, it is possible to increase the bus frequency by changing the max_freq_khz field of sdmmc_host_t:

sdmmc_host_t host = SDMMC_HOST_DEFAULT();
host.max_freq_khz = SDMMC_FREQ_HIGHSPEED;

To configure the bus width, set the width field of sdmmc_slot_config_t. For example, to set 1-line mode:

sdmmc_slot_config_t slot = SDMMC_SLOT_CONFIG_DEFAULT();
slot.width = 1;

Configuring GPIOs¶

ESP32-S3 SDMMC Host can be configured to use arbitrary GPIOs for each of the signals. Configuration is performed by setting members of sdmmc_slot_config_t structure. For example, to use GPIOs 1-6 for CLK, CMD, D0 - D3 signals, respectively:

sdmmc_slot_config_t slot = SDMMC_SLOT_CONFIG_DEFAULT();
slot.clk = GPIO_NUM_1;
slot.cmd = GPIO_NUM_2;
slot.d0 = GPIO_NUM_3;
slot.d1 = GPIO_NUM_4;
slot.d2 = GPIO_NUM_5;
slot.d3 = GPIO_NUM_6;

It is also possible to configure Card Detect and Write Protect pins. Similar to other signals, set cd and wp members of the same structure:

slot.cd = GPIO_NUM_7;
slot.wp = GPIO_NUM_8;

SDMMC_SLOT_CONFIG_DEFAULT sets both to GPIO_NUM_NC, meaning that by default the signals are not used.

Once sdmmc_slot_config_t structure is initialized this way, you can use it when calling sdmmc_host_init_slot() or one of the higher level functions, such as esp_vfs_fat_sdmmc_mount().

DDR Mode for eMMC chips¶

By default, DDR mode will be used if:

SDMMC host frequency is set to SDMMC_FREQ_HIGHSPEED in sdmmc_host_t structure, and
eMMC chip reports DDR mode support in its CSD register

DDR mode places higher requirements for signal integrity. To disable DDR mode while keeping SDMMC_FREQ_HIGHSPEED frequency, clear SDMMC_HOST_FLAG_DDR bit in flags field of sdmmc_host_t:

sdmmc_host_t host = SDMMC_HOST_DEFAULT();
host.max_freq_khz = SDMMC_FREQ_HIGHSPEED;
host.flags &= ~SDMMC_HOST_FLAG_DDR;

Functions¶

esp_err_t sdmmc_host_init(void)¶

Initialize SDMMC host peripheral.

Note

This function is not thread safe

Return

ESP_OK on success

esp_err_t sdmmc_host_init_slot(int slot, const sdmmc_slot_config_t *slot_config)¶

Initialize given slot of SDMMC peripheral.

On the ESP32, SDMMC peripheral has two slots:

Slot 0: 8-bit wide, maps to HS1_* signals in PIN MUX
Slot 1: 4-bit wide, maps to HS2_* signals in PIN MUX

Card detect and write protect signals can be routed to arbitrary GPIOs using GPIO matrix.

Note

This function is not thread safe

Return

ESP_OK on success
ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE if host has not been initialized using sdmmc_host_init

Parameters

slot: slot number (SDMMC_HOST_SLOT_0 or SDMMC_HOST_SLOT_1)
slot_config: additional configuration for the slot

esp_err_t sdmmc_host_set_bus_width(int slot, size_t width)¶

Select bus width to be used for data transfer.

SD/MMC card must be initialized prior to this command, and a command to set bus width has to be sent to the card (e.g. SD_APP_SET_BUS_WIDTH)

Note

This function is not thread safe

Return

ESP_OK on success
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG if slot number or width is not valid

Parameters

slot: slot number (SDMMC_HOST_SLOT_0 or SDMMC_HOST_SLOT_1)
width: bus width (1, 4, or 8 for slot 0; 1 or 4 for slot 1)

size_t sdmmc_host_get_slot_width(int slot)¶

Get bus width configured in sdmmc_host_init_slot to be used for data transfer.

Return

configured bus width of the specified slot.

Parameters

slot: slot number (SDMMC_HOST_SLOT_0 or SDMMC_HOST_SLOT_1)

esp_err_t sdmmc_host_set_card_clk(int slot, uint32_t freq_khz)¶

Currently only integer fractions of 40MHz clock can be used. For High Speed cards, 40MHz can be used. For Default Speed cards, 20MHz can be used.

Note

This function is not thread safe

This function returns when command is sent and response is received, or data is transferred, or timeout occurs.

Note

This function is not thread safe w.r.t. init/deinit functions, and bus width/clock speed configuration functions. Multiple tasks can call sdmmc_host_do_transaction as long as other sdmmc_host_* functions are not called.

Enable the pull-ups of sd pins.

This function is deprecated. Please set SDMMC_SLOT_FLAG_INTERNAL_PULLUP flag in sdmmc_slot_config_t::flags instead.

Note

You should always place actual pullups on the lines instead of using this function. Internal pullup resistance are high and not sufficient, may cause instability in products. This is for debug or examples only.

Return

ESP_OK: if success
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: if configured width larger than maximum the slot can support
