Using SD card on nRF9161 DK

Hello, we've a nRF9161 DK board a we saw on the back side a footprint for mounting an SD card holder and we found the SD card holder component in the BOM.

Unfortunately there is no mention about the usage of the SD card in for the nRF9161 DK anywhere in the documentation.

Is there any problem on using the SD card on nRF9161 DK (trough SPI I guess) ?

What do we have to do to connect the SD card to the nRF9161 module (excluding the soldering of the card holder)?

Thanks in advance for the support,

Joel

  • No, as stated initially, I just need to have SD card running with LittleFS on my application. My initial starting point was the format sample ... which was building and running correctly on nRF9161 target with exception of the LittleFS stuff ... then Edvin told me to use the mass sample as starting point and build it for nRF9161... I personally just need the SD card working on whatever sample which is buildable for  the nRF9161 target.

  • Noted,

    I can't promise anything but I will see if I can get it compiling. But yeah, since I guess both Edvin and I missed that fact that there's no USB controller, then the best way might still be to base it on the usb/mass implementation and dissect out the USB parts and implement the SPI solution in the resources I posted.

    There's no other samples that might be working as a foundation within the SDK.

    Kind regards,
    Andreas
