fatfs example doesn't work with SDHC

[y001]

Hi

I am using fafs example from SDK 15.0.0

It was possible to write to the SD card by SPI communication.
However, using SanDisk's 32GBSDHC, it became impossible to write.
Do fatfsexample is not me to the discrimination of SD and SDHC automatically?

There are differences in the initialization of SD and SDHC cards. SDHC is not currently supported by the fatfs example.

Thank you for your reply!

So should I change the sdc_cmd in the code from line 510 to line 634 of "app_sdcard.c"?

static PT_THREAD(sdc_pt_identification(uint8_t * p_rx_data,
                                       uint8_t rx_length,

    uint8_t r1   = p_rx_data[0];
    uint32_t rsp = ((uint32_t)p_rx_data[1] << 24)
                   | ((uint32_t)p_rx_data[2] << 16)
                   | ((uint32_t)p_rx_data[3] << 8)

Yes

[y001]

I read the program, but you've judged whether it's SDHC, right?
What is missing to actually enable SDHC?

[ketiljo]

As the example code don't support SDHC cards, you either have use a SD card, or change the code yourself. Use the info in the link in my first answer and check is there are more info elsewhere.
