FAT16 file system for MMC using SPI interface |
Posted: Fri Feb 04, 2005 10:08 am |
|
|
The electrical interface I used was a digi key MMC connector but if you have an old floppy drive cable with the bulky PCB connector( the one that accepts a PCB edge) the spacing is the same as MMC so you can cut it down and wire up each side so as to connect to the MMC whichever way it is inserted.
Code: |
below is the driver file mmcdos.c
///////////////////////////// SPI interface for ///////////
// Multi Media Card FAT16 only
// FAT16 is a copyright of Microsoft
// This program was developed for personal use only based on
// information Microsoft placed in the public domain
// The code will read MMC SD cards in SPI mode previously formatted
// on a PC
// To write a file update to cards a 512 byte buffer is required
// to store the existing info from a sector prior to updating
// An append or writing a new sector can be done without the buffer
// THe PIC is at 5v and the MMC at 3.3v ... a 5v 7407 open collector
// buffer is used to level convert with 2.2k pull ups on the SPI lines
// the 3.3v MMC supply is either obtained from the 5v via a 3.3 Vreg
// or is dropped down via a led ( also works as a power on indicator)
// and smoothed via 100 uf cap
//
// the MMC card and the PIC aren't ever in sync so the card has to be polled to
// get the required response. Often a command is just repeated until the CARD responds
// and the card is polled until it sends the data

Anyone willing to incorporate FAT16 and/or FAT32 in their products might have a look at the 'Microsoft Extensible Firmware Initiative FAT32 File System Specification'. This document is the official Microsoft specification for FAT16/32 and it describes under which conditions you are allowed to incorporate it in your own product.

Hello Douglas Kennedy (or someone else),
I now this topic is already 2 years old but can you give an example on how to write a file ? (f.e. counting form 1 to 1000 in 10 lines of 100 ?)
As you have the file_write(int8 fnbr,int *buff) in your mmcdos it is possible right ?
Thanks. _________________ I like Skype (www.skype.com), my username is BplotM |

HI,
I had a look at the code, i am not sure why
root_dir_sectors=root_dir_entries>>4;
Could someone please enlighten me? |

The sector size of an MMC / SD card is 512 bytes. A fat entry is 32 bytes therefore the maximum number of entries per sector = 512 / 32 = 16.
The expressions >> 4 is the same as /16.
The number of sectors used to hold the directory = number of entries / maximum number of entries per sector.
DOn't forget that you need to round up. For example, If you have only a single directory entries you need an entire sector. If you have 17 entries you need two sectors. _________________ Regards, Andrew

MMC card connector |

Douglas,
Could you post the part number for the MMC card connector you were using? I just can't find an attainable MMC card connector...
Thanks,

Microsoft fully owns the FAT design.
The US patent office has upheld Microsoft's ownership in a January 2006 finding.
Anyone using FAT(12/16/32) for any commercial purpose whatsoever must obtain permission from Microsoft. Permission can cost up to $250,000.
This project was a hobby project and I have never sought or received any compensation either directly or indirectly ( magazine articles) from this project. No code whatsoever to create FAT directories or new FAT files has ever been placed in the public domain or supplied to others privately by myself nor have I aided any other person in doing so.
There never was (or will be) any intention on my part to violate Microsoft's lawful patents. |

The connector is Digi key 361-1025-ND ... it may be discontinued.
It's not as neat but it so happens the MMC card fits into the old style floppy disk connector ( it has the same finger spacing). If you have an old floppy disk cable you can remove and cut down the female connector that mates with the PC board on the floppy hardware. You can even wire it so the MMC card can be inserted either side up. |

Microsoft have patents which cover the the implementation of long file names used inconjunction with their FAT implementation. FATs are not exclusive to Microsoft and other companies hold patents for their various FAT implementations.
The statement Microsoft fully owns the FAT design is extreme and I believe incorrect. To my knowledge Microsoft do not hold any patents covering the generic FAT12 and FAT16 data structures that would require a licence for implementations based solely on the original short file name implementation with these FATs. _________________ Regards, Andrew

I agree with him and i think example could help us !
For the moment I only succeeded on writing in an existing file (couldn't create a new file)...
Thanks ! |

Douglas, that's interesting.
The part with copyright.
The license aplies only when I'm doing software that writes to FAT or in general for using FAT in any products?
Thanks! |

Found a problem in 'open_file' routine that causes the code to only look at every OTHER directory entry. Thought a fix might save some head scratching!
Should be:-
..
..
if(bytes_read > cluster_size_bytes)
{
/// requires a valid next=next_cluster_ptr
// compute next cluster address and assign this cluster
dir_addr_ptr=cluster_addr(fnbr,NEXT_CLUSTER);
if (dir_addr_ptr==0xFFFFFF) return (23);
bytes_read=bytes_read-cluster_size_bytes;
dir_addr_ptr=dir_addr_ptr+bytes_read;
}
else
{
dir_addr_ptr=dir_addr_ptr+32;
}
// dir_addr_ptr=dir_addr_ptr+32; // NOT NEEDED - SKIPS EVERY OTHER ENTRY - DONE IN 'ELSE' CLAUSE ABOVE
if (read_BLOCK(dir_addr_ptr,buff)==false) return(32);
goto tile_decode;
..

Thanks for the driver! I haven't tested it yet.. But I have a few questions:
1. Is it possible to get a list of all the files on the card? well, maby not the whole list at once but a few files to show on a lcd and then scroll?
2. How large cards can it handle? is it 2^32 bytes? 4Gb?
Thanks...
(I know this is an old thread, but I hope someone will see it ) |
