microSD3.0 UHS-I SPEC
1. Overview
1.1 Product Description
The microSD3.0 Cards are fully compatible with Physical Layer Specification, Version 3.0 (this
specification is available from the SDA), support Ultra High Speed(UHS), provides high write/read
speed and high IOPS, It was designed to meet the security, high capacity, high performance and
environmental requirements inherent in next generation consumer electronic devices.
The SD card system is a new mass-storage system based on innovations in semiconductor technology.
It has been developed to provide an inexpensive, mechanically robust storage medium in card form
for multimedia consumer applications. SD card allows the design of inexpensive players and drivers
without moving parts. A low power consumption and a wide supply voltage range favors consumer
electronic devices.

*Maximum speed differs from the bus I/F speed. It varies depending upon the card performance. The
average speed that a device writes to an SD memory card may vary depending upon the device and
the operation it is performing. Normal and high-speed cards can also be used with UHS-I host devices,
but the high performance enabled by a UHS-I host device can only be achieved with a UHS- I memory
card.

6.2 Card Specific Data Register (CSD)
The Card-Specific Data register provides information regarding access to the card contents. The CSD
defines the data format, error correction type, maximum data access time, whether the DSR register
can be used, etc. The programmable part of the register (entries marked by W or E, see below) can be
changed by CMD27. The CSD Table Version 2.0(as shown below) is applied to SDHC and SDXC Cards.
Note that bits [15:0] are programmable by the host side. Refer to the SD specification for detailed
information
