char * msg;

strcpy(msg,"Written!");

'msg' is just an uninitialized pointer here. It needs to point to a RAM
array. Or better, declare it as an array. Example:
Code:
char msg[20];

That's big enough to hold your sample message of "Written!".

Hello

Thank you for your answer PCM programmer Smile


I've followed your suggestion but the EVENTS.LOG file remains unchanged.

Does anyone has any suggestion about this problem?


I'm using the 3.3V zener and 820R at the MMC card. The 100k pull-up (to 3.3V) is also there. For Vcc of the card I've used an LD29080PT33R (LDO 3.3V). I've used also a 100nF ceramic capacitor beside the vcc and gnd of the card.
As I've said, the code runs until the "END Writing" printf. I'm starting to think the problem comes from the card. Does anyone tried this code with a 512MB card? Now it's very hard to buy these kind of cards, specially with low storage capacities.

What kind of changes are needed to use a SD card instead of my MMC card?

Is there anybody out there?


I know this is an old thread but I don't understand why the users who got the problem resolved don't share their solutions.

This is a forum, a place to share ideas. Read the entire thread and in most cases you see a user saying he has a problem. Then some more experienced users kindly try to sugest solutions. Then what happens? Posts like:

Yay I've solved the problem! Cya

This doesn't help anybody... Sad

My advice is first make it work with an MMC card, since that's what the
original project code was for. This will prove if your hardware is correct.
Then when that works, try it with an SD card.

Some routines increase the clock speed after switching the card into SPI mode. If the clock is too fast you will have problems! I need div64 on a 2620 using a 20MHz oscillator in HS mode. Any less and it doesn't work.


This may be the case with this specific driver (I do not know) but it is not generally correct - meaning that an 18F2620 running at 40MHz will successfully work with an MMC card with div4 setting on the setup SPI.

Perhaps you have a hardware implementation problem loading the bus or not pulling up the DO from the card.

Thank you for the replies Surprised


I'll try to change the clock div on the SPI setup.

I try all of the code with all possible changes but, not success.

Will any body help me out, I think this is just chat about nothing at last !!!

Than enjoy chat ,,, until anyone get dear to say I have complete solution.

If you give up then check out my site. I sell the source for the file system that works for FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32 that works with MMC, SD and SDHC cards.

How rude! You bought some PIC chips. You bought a compiler. Why not buy some library code too?

Hi guys!

I'm trying to port this code to a PIC24F but I've some problems: I put some 'printf' to see where the code is executing but it crashed the system and reset the PIC. So I think it doesn't work in PIC24.

Did anybody port the code to a PIC24? Can anybody help me in this?

hi

I'm using your code on a 18F452 but it doesn't work correctly yet.
I always get the message:
Quote:

1st file in list was probably a dir

I tried a few cards, all are formated Fat32 and on each there are a
couple of files (no directories).

I tried to print out the information in initFAT().

For a 256MB SD I got:
Quote:

Reserved: 32
Fatcopies: 2
Max Root Entries: 0

Number of Hidden: 107
Number of Sectors: 474645
hSectors per Fat: 924
hFlags: 0
hFat32 Version: 0

For a 512MB SD:

And another 512MB:

The information is the same every time I try to read the card.
Do you have any suggestions?

===================
Mr Moderator:
This questions is very different than my other question related to mmcsd lib of CCS! Please don't delete this.
===================


Hello.

I got problem with this code.

My program enters into infinite loop at FindDirEntry function when I call fopen function.
I put some lcd_putc lines in the function and my lcd is filled by 'b' chars. So it cannot leave the do-while loop.

I see "abbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb...." on my lcd

I have pull-up resistors on DO(7) and CS(1) pins.

SD -- PIC
DO->SDI
SCLK->SCL
DI->SDO
CS->CS

Code:
// Function: Finds a file
char FindDirEntry(char *fname,char f)
{
   DIR *pDir;
   int16 i;
   char filename[16];
   int32 nextcluster,actsector;

   if (f > (MAXFILES-1))
   {
      return FALSE;
   }
   lcd_putc('a');
   gFAT32Vars.gFirstEmptyDirEntry = 0xFF;
   gFAT32Vars.gFirstDirEntryCluster = 0x0FFFFFFF;
   do
   {
      pDir = (DIR*)(gFiles[f].IOpuffer);
      for (i=0;i<DIRENTRYS_PER_SECTOR;i++)
      {
         if ((pDir->sName[0] == 0xE5 || pDir->sName[0] == 0) && gFAT32Vars.gFirstEmptyDirEntry == 0xFF) // store first free
         {
            gFAT32Vars.gFirstEmptyDirEntry = i;
            gFAT32Vars.gFirstDirEntryCluster = gFiles[f].CurrentCluster;
         }
         if (pDir->sName[0] == 0)
         {
            return FALSE;
         }
         ConvertFilename(pDir,filename);
         if (!strcmp(filename,fname))
         {
            memcpy(&(gFiles[f].DirEntry),pDir,32);
            gFiles[f].dirIdx = i;
            gFAT32Vars.gDirEntryIdx = i;
            return TRUE;
         }
         pDir++;
      }
      lcd_putc('b');
      nextcluster = GetNextCluster(gFiles[f].CurrentCluster);
      if (nextcluster != 0x0FFFFFFF && nextcluster != 0)
      {
         actsector = nextcluster + gFAT32Vars.gFirstDataSector;
         ReadSector(actsector,gFiles[f].IOpuffer);
         gFAT32Vars.gDirEntrySector = actsector;
         gFiles[f].dirSector = actsector;
         gFiles[f].CurrentCluster = nextcluster;
      }
   } while (nextcluster != 0x0FFFFFFF && nextcluster != 0);
   lcd_putc('c');
   return FALSE;
}



What could be the problem?

Hi,

I found the problem.

I made the same circuit on proteus and made a .mmc image file using WinImage program. So it doesn't enter infinite loop in that function. It has some problems but it works.
I formatted the image with these parameters:


On real hardware, it enters into infinite loop because I can not format the card as required.

Do you know a detailed formatter tool to help me?

Another important question:
If I cannot format it as required, what about if I change "512"s (for ex:IOpuffer[512];) to 16348 ?
