SDMMC Host Driver
=================

Overview
--------

On the ESP32, SDMMC host peripheral has two slots:

- Slot 0 (:c:macro:`SDMMC_HOST_SLOT_0`) is an 8-bit slot. It uses ``HS1_*`` signals in the PIN MUX.
- Slot 1 (:c:macro:`SDMMC_HOST_SLOT_1`) is a 4-bit slot. It uses ``HS2_*`` signals in the PIN MUX.

Pin mappings of these slots are given in the following table:

    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | Signal | Slot 0      | Slot 1      |
    +========+=============+=============+
    | CMD    | GPIO11      | GPIO15      |
    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | CLK    | GPIO6       | GPIO14      |
    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | D0     | GPIO7       | GPIO2       |
    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | D1     | GPIO8       | GPIO4       |
    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | D2     | GPIO9       | GPIO12      |
    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | D3     | GPIO10      | GPIO13      |
    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | D4     | GPIO16      |             |
    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | D5     | GPIO17      |             |
    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | D6     | GPIO5       |             |
    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | D7     | GPIO18      |             |
    +--------+-------------+-------------+
    | CD     | any input via GPIO matrix |
    +--------+---------------------------+
    | WP     | any input via GPIO matrix |
    +--------+---------------------------+

Card Detect and Write Protect signals can be routed to arbitrary pins using GPIO matrix. To use these pins, set ``gpio_cd`` and ``gpio_wp`` members of :cpp:class:`sdmmc_slot_config_t` structure before calling :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_init_slot`. Note that it is not advised to specify Card Detect pin when working with SDIO cards, because in ESP32 card detect signal can also trigger SDIO slave interrupt.

.. warning::
    
    Pins used by slot 0 (``HS1_*``) are also used to connect SPI flash chip in ESP-WROOM32 and ESP32-WROVER modules. These pins can not be shared between SD card and SPI flash. If you need to use Slot 0, connect SPI flash to different pins and set Efuses accordingly.

Supported speed modes
---------------------

SDMMC Host driver supports the following speed modes:

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

Not supported at present are:

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

Using the SDMMC Host driver
---------------------------

Of all the funtions listed below, only :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_init`, :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_init_slot`, and :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_deinit` will be used directly by most applications.

Other functions, such as :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_set_bus_width`, :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_set_card_clk`, and :cpp:func:`sdmmc_host_do_transaction` will be called by the SD/MMC protocol layer via function pointers in :cpp:class:`sdmmc_host_t` structure.

Configuring bus width and frequency
-----------------------------------

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

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

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

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

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