    micro-SD Card Adapter (#32312)


    The micro-SD Card Adapter allows you to easily connect a micro-SD Flash memory card to your Propeller chip or other microcontroller. This adapter contains the components required for an SPI interface between the host microcontroller and a micro-SD memory card. The adapter also includes a card detect switch which allows you to detect when a memory card is physically present in the socket. Mounting holes allow you to install the adapter in your application.

    Features y y y y y y
    SPI support components already installed on the PCB Includes mounting holes for use in applications Card detect switch allows detection of memory card insertion SIP header makes breadboard use easy Supporting objects for the Propeller chip are available on the Propeller Object Exchange All I/O lines from the SD card are brought out to support SD Bus Mode if desired

    Key Specifications y y y y
    Power requirements: 3.3 VDC; power consumption determined by micro-SD card used + 0.5 mA when card is inserted Communication: SPI (or SD Bus Mode) Operating temperature: 32 to 158 F (0 to 70 C) Dimensions: 1.11 L x 1.00 W x 0.47 H (28.22 mm L x 25.40 mm W x 11.92 mm H)

    Application Ideas y y y
    Mass Storage addition for project Datalogger Data portability
