(*) These signals should be pulled up by host side with 10-100k ohm resistance in the SPI Mode.
4.2 microSD Card Bus Topology
The device supports two alternative communication protocols: SD and SPI Bus Mode. It is as
same as standard microSD memory cards. Host System can choose either one of modes.
Same Data of the device can read and write by both modes. SD Mode allows the 4-bit high
performance data transfer. SPI Mode allows easy and common interface for SPI channel. The
disadvantage of this mode is loss of performance, relatively to the SD mode.
4.2.1 SD Bus Mode protocol
The SD bus allows the dynamic configuration of the number of data line from 1 to 4 Bidirectional data signal. After power up by default, the Device will use only DAT0. After
initialization, host can change the bus width. Multiplied microSD cards connections are available
to the host. Common VDD, VSS and CLK signal connections are available in the multiple
connections. However, Command, Respond and Data lined (DAT0-DAT3) shall be divided for
each card from host. This feature allows easy tradeoff between hardware cost and system
performance. Communication over the SD bus is based on command and data bit stream
initiated by a start bit and terminated by stop bit.
Command:
Commands are transferred serially on the CMD line. A command is a token to starts an
operation from host to the card. Commands are sent to an addressed single card (addressed
Command) or to all connected cards (Broad cast command).
Response:
Responses are transferred serially on the CMD line. A response is a token to answer to a
previous received command. Responses are sent from an addressed single card or from all
connected cards.
Data:
Data can be transfer from the card to the host or vice versa. Data is transferred via the data
lines.

6.2.2 SPI Bus mode Protocol
The SPI bus allows 1 bit Data line by 2-chanel (Data In and Out). The SPI compatible mode
allows the MMC Host systems to use microSD card with little change. The SPI bus mode
protocol is byte transfers. All the data token are multiples of the bytes (8-bit) and always byte
aligned to the CS signal.
The advantage of the SPI mode is reducing the host design effort. Especially, the MMC host
can be modified with little change. The disadvantage of the SPI mode is the loss of performance
versus SD mode.
Caution: Please use SD Card Specification. DO NOT use MMC Specification. (For example,
initialization is achieved by ACMD41, and be careful to Register. Register definition is different,
especially CSD Register.)

4.3 Initialization
The flow chart for UHS-I hosts and the sequence of commands to perform a signal voltage
switch is shown below. Red and yellow boxes are new procedures to initialize the UHS-I card.

Revision A | April 3, 2017
SDHC/SDXC UHS104 microSD Cards
Page 18
Figure 4-5: ACMD41 Timing Followed by Signal Voltage Switch Sequence
1) POWER ON: Supply Voltage for initialization.
Host System applies the perating Voltage to the card. Apply more
than 74 cycles of Dummy-clock to the microSD card.
2) Select operation mode (SD mode or SPI mode)
In the case of SPI mode operation, the host should drive pin 1 (CD/DAT3) of the microSD Card
I/F to a “Low” level. Then, issue CMD0. In the case of SD mode operation, the host should
drive or detect pin 1 of the microSD Card I/F (Pull up register of pin 1 is pull up to “High”
normally). The card maintains selected operation mode except re-issue of CMD0 or power on
below is SD mode initialization procedure.
3) Send Interface condition command (CMD8).
When the card is in the Idle state, the host shall issue CMD8 before ACMD41. In the argument,
'voltage supplied' is set to the host supply voltage and 'check pattern' is set to any 8-bit pattern.
The card that accepted the supplied voltage returns R7 response. In the response, the card
echoes back both the voltage range and check pattern set in the argument. If the card does not
support the host supply voltage, it shall not return response and stays in the Idle state.
4) Send initialization command (ACMD41).
When the signaling level is 3.3V, the host repeats an issue ACMD41 with HCS=1 and S18R=1
until the response indicates ready. The argument (HCS and S18R) of the first ACMD41 is
effective but the all the following ACMD41 should be issued with the same argument. If Bit 31
indicates ready, the host needs to check CCS and S18A. The card indicates S18A=0, which
means that the voltage switch is not allowed and the host needs to use the current signaling
level.

5) Send voltage switch command (CMD11)
S18A=1 means that the voltage switch is allowed and host issues CMD11 to invoke voltage
switch sequence. By receiving CMD11, the card returns R1 response and start voltage switch
sequence. No response of CMD11 means that S18A was 0 and therefore the host should not
have sent CMD11. Completion of voltage switch sequence is checked by high level of
DAT[3:0]. Any bit of DAT[3:0] can be checked depends on ability of the host. The card enters
UHS-I mode and card input and output timings are changed (SDR12 in default) when the
voltage switch sequence is completed successfully.
6) Send ALL_SEND_CID command (CMD2) and get the Card ID (CID)
7) Send SEND_RELATIVE_ADDR (CMD3) and get the RCA.
RCA value is randomly changed by access, not equal zero.
8) Send SELECT / DESELECT_CARD command (CMD7) and move to the transfer state.
When entering tran state, CARD_IS_LOCKED status in the R1 response should be checked (it
is indicated in the response of CMD7). If the CARD_IS_LOCKED status is set to 1 in the
response of CMD7, CMD42 is required before ACMD6 tounlock the card. ( If the card is locked,
CMD42 is required to unlock the card. ) If the card is unlocked, CMD42 can be skipped.
9) Send SET_BUS_WIDTH command (ACMD6).
UHS-I supports only 4-bit mode. Host shall select 4-bit mode by ACMD6. If the card is locked,
host needs to unlock the card by CMD42 in 1-bit mode and then needs to issue ACMD6 to
change 4-bit bus mode. Operating in 1-bit mode is not assured.
10) Set driver strength.
CMD6 mode 0 is used to query which functions the card supports, and to identify the maximum
current consumption of the card under the selected functions. In case of UHS-I card,
appropriate driver strength (default is Type-B buffer) is selected by CMD6 Function Group 3.
11) Set UHS-I mode current limit.
UHS-I modes ( Bus Speed Mode ) is selected by CMD6 Function Group
1. Current limit is selected by CMD6 Function Group 4.
Maximum access settings:
SDR104 = (CMD6 Function Group 1 = 3-h, CMD6 Function Group 4 = 0-h(*))
SDR50 = (CMD6 Function Group 1 = 2-h, CMD6 Function Group 4 = 0-h(*))
DDR50 = (CMD6 Function Group 1 = 4-h, CMD6 Function Group 4 = 0-h(*))
(*) The Current Limit is default value (200mA).

Note:
Function Group 4 is defined as Current Limit switch for SDR50, SDR104. The Current Limit does
not act on the card in SDR12 and SDR25. The default value of the Current Limit is 200mA
(minimum setting). Then after selecting one of SDR50, SDR104 mode by Function Group 1, host
needs to change the Current Limit to enable the card to operate in higher performance. This
value is determined by a host power supply capability to the card, heat release method taken by a
host and the maximum current of a connector.
12) Tuning of sampling point
CMD19 sends a tuning block to the host to determine sampling point. In SDR50 and SDR104
modes, if tuning of sampling point is required, CMD19 is repeatedly issued until tuning is
completed. Then the Host can access the Data between the microSD card as a storage device.
Application Notes:
1.The host shall set ACMD41 timeout to more than 1 second to abort repeat of issuing
ACMD41 when the card does not indicate ready. The timeout count starts from the first
ACMD41 which is set voltage window in the argument.
2.Once the signal voltage is switched to 1.8V, the card continues 1.8V signaling regardless of
CMD0. Power cycle resets the signal voltage to 3.3V. After switching 1.8V singling, the card
cannot be changed to SPI mode.
3.Timing to Switch Signal Voltage To change signaling level at the same time between host
and card, signal voltage switch sequence is invoked by CMD11 as shown in the figure below.
CMD11 is issued only when S18A=1 in the response of ACMD41.
Figure 4-6: Signal Voltage Switch Sequence
Steps that the host takes to start a voltage switch sequence.
1. The host issues CMD11 to start voltage switch sequence.
2. The card returns R1 response.
3. The card drives CMD and DAT[3:0] to “low” immediately after the response.
4. The host stops supplying SDCLK. The card shall start switching voltage after host stops SDCLK. The
Datasheet: PSUSDxxxxCxxxxxC
Revision A | April 3, 2017
SDHC/SDXC UHS104 microSD Cards
Page 21
time to stop SDCLK is not specified. The host can detect whether the sequence starts by checking
signal level of either one of CMD, DAT[3:0]. What signal should be checked will depend on the ability
of the host. If low level is not detected, the host should abort the sequence and execute power cycle.
5. 1.8V output of voltage regulator in card shall be stable within 5ms.The Host keeps SDCLK low at least
5ms. This means that 5ms is the maximum for the card and the minimum for the host.
6. After 5ms from (step 4) and host voltage regulator is stable, the host starts providing SDCLK at 1.8V.
The card can check whether SDCLK voltage is 1.8V.
7. By detecting SDCLK, the card drives CMD to high at 1.8V for at least one clock and then stops driving
(tri-state). CMD is triggered by rising edge of SDCLK (SDR timing).
8. The card can check whether host drives CMD to 1.8V through the host pull-up resister.
9. If switching to 1.8V signaling is completed successfully, the card drives DAT[3:0] to high at 1.8V at least
one clock and then stop driving (tri-state). DAT[3:0] is triggered by rising edge of SDCLK (SDR timing).
DAT[3:0] shall be high within 1ms from start of providing SDCLK. Host check whether DAT[3:0] is high
after 1ms from supplying SDCLK. This means that 1ms is the maximum for the card and the minimum
for the host.

7 Reliability Guidance
This reliability guidance is intended to provide some guidance related to using raw NAND flash.
Although random bit errors may occur during use, it does not necessarily mean that a block is
bad. Generally, a block should be marked as bad when a program status failure or erase status
failure is detected. The other failure modes may be recovered by a block erase.
ECC treatment for read data is mandatory due to the following Data Retention and Read Disturb
failures.
Write/Erase Endurance
Write/Erase endurance failures may occur in a cell, page, or block, and are detected by doing a
status read after either an auto program or auto block erase operation. The cumulative bad
block count will increase along with the number of write/erase cycles.
Data Retention
The data in memory may change after a certain amount of storage time. This is due to an
electrical charge loss or charge gain. After block erasure and reprogramming, the block may
become usable again. Also write/erase endurance deteriorates data retention capability. The
figure below shows a generic trend of relationship between write/erase endurance and data
retention.
Data Retention
Read Disturb
A read operation may disturb the data in memory. The data may change due to charge gain.
Usually, bit errors occur on other pages in the block, not the page being read. After a large
number of read cycles (between block erases), a tiny charge may build up and can cause a cell
to be soft programmed to another state. After block erasure and reprogramming, the block may
become usable again.
Considering the above failure modes, Viking recommends following usage model:
Datasheet: PSUSDxxxxCxxxxxC
Revision A | April 3, 2017
SDHC/SDXC UHS104 microSD Cards
Page 44
Avoid any excessive iteration of resets and initialization sequences (card identification mode) as
far much as possible after power-on, which may result in read disturb failure. The resets include
hardware resets and software resets. i.e.
1) The iteration of the following command sequence: CMD0 -ACMD41
(The assertion of ACMD41 implies a count of internal read operation in Raw NAND.
CMD0: Go idle state command,
ACMD41 : SD send operation command
2) Iteration of the following command: ACMD43
ACMD43 : Get MKB command
