Overview
Description
This device driver controls SD cards with the use of the on-chip SD host interface (SDHI) of an MCU. Using this driver along with a lower-layer SDHI FIT module allows you to control SD memory and SDIO (Secure Digital Input/Output).
You can update or read data by simply calling user API functions. This device driver is a Firmware Integration Technology (FIT) module which supports FIT. In combination with other FIT modules, you can easily include various sample code in user applications. DMAC or DTC transfer can be included by combining the SD card driver with the DMAC FIT module or DTC FIT module.
