Note1: WP pin MUST be connected to ground if Write protection signal is not used in
the hardware design.
Note2: CD pin MUST be connected to ground if Card Detect signal is not used in the
hardware design.
† Important note: If ULPI PHY is implemented in the design (like in ALFAT OEM
board), then the USB mass storage device connected to USB1 MUST be initialized in
High-Speed mode (even if the USB device does not support High-Speed mode).
Initializing it in Full-Speed might cause an undesirable performance.
The default SD bus clock frequency is 12MHz. This frequency works on the majority of
the memory cards. Some cards can work with higher frequency up to 24MHz. This will
enhance the memory access speed a little bit. The initialize command gives the user the
option to choose other than the default clock frequency.
Important note 1: Most of the SD cards works with 24MHz. but not the majority. Cards
that do not work with this high frequency will accept to be initialize but the is about 20%
chance that it will fail to process write sector requests. So it is highly recommended to
use the default frequency if the final application should work with the majority of the
Initializing memory card with different clock frequency:
