4. Block Diagram
All units in these C-ONE MultMediaCards are clocked by an internal clock generator. The Interface
diver unit synchronizes the DAT and CMD signals from external CLK to the internal used clock signal.
The card is controlled by the three line MultiMediaCard interface containing the signals: CMD, CLK
and DAT. For the identification of the MultiMediaCard in a stack of the MultiMediaCard, a card
identification register (CID) and a relative card address register (RCA) is foreseen. An additional
register contains different types of operation parameters. This register is called card specific data
register (CSD). The communication using the MultiMediaCard lines to access either the memory field
or the registers is defined by the MultiMediaCard standard. The card has its own power on detection
unit. No additional master reset signal is required to setup the card after power on. It is protected
against short circuit during insertion and removal while the MultiMediaCard system is powered up. No
external programming voltage supply is required. The programming voltage is generated on card.
These C-ONE MultiMediaCards support a second a second interface mode. The SPI mode is activated
if the CS signal is asserted (negative) during the reception of the command (CMD0).

5. Interface
These C-ONE MMCplus / MMCmobile interface can operate in two different modes:
z MultiMediaCard mode
z SPI mode
Both modes use the same pins and the default mode is the MultiMediaCard mode. The SPI mode is selected
by activating (=0) the CS signal (Pin 1) and sending the CMD1.
MultiMediaCard Mode
In the MultiMediaCard mode, all data is transferred over a minimal number of lines:
z CLK: with each cycle of this signal a one-bit transfer on the command and data lines is done. The
frequency may vary between zero and the maximum clock frequency. The MultiMediaCard bus master
is free to generate these cycles without restrictions in the range of 0 to 52 MHZ.
z CMD: is a bidirectional command channel used for card initialization and data transfer commands.
The CMD signal has two operation modes: open drain for initialization mode and push pull for fast
command transfer. Commands are sent from the MultiMediaCard bus master to the MultiMediaCard
and responses vice versa.
z DAT0~7: is a bidirectional data channel with a width of one line. The DAT signal of the
MultiMediaCard operates in push pull mode.
All MultiMediaCards are connected directly to the lines of the MultiMediaCard bus.

7. SPI Mode
The Serial Peripheral Interface(SPI) is a general-purpose synchronous serial interface originally found on certain
Motorola microcontrollers. The MultiMediaCard SPI interface is compatible with SPI hosts available on the market.
As any other SPI device the MultiMediaCard SPI interface consists of the following four signals:
CS: Host to card Chip Select signal.
CLK: Host to card clock signal
Data in: Host to card data signal.
Data out: Card to host data signal.
The MultiMediaCard identification and addressing methods are replaced by a hardware Chip Select (CS) signal.
There are no broadcast commands. For every command, a card (slave) is selected by asserting (active low) the CS
signal. The CS signal must be continuously active for the duration of the SPI transaction (command, response and
data). The only exception occurs during card programming, when the host can de-assert the CS signal without
affecting the programming process. The bi-directional CMD and DAT lines are replaced by unidirectional data in and
data out signals. This eliminates the ability of executing commands while data is being read or written and, therefore,
makes the sequential and multi block read/write operations obsolete. The single and multiple block read/write
commands are supported by the SPI channel. The SPI interface uses the same seven signals of the standard
MultiMediaCard bus.

Registers
These C-ONE MultiMediaCards contain the following information registers:
MultiMediaCard Registers
The CID and RCA are used for identifying and addressing the MultiMediaCard. The CSD contains the card specific
data record. This record is a set of information fields to define the operation conditions of the MultiMediaCard.
For the user, the CID is read only register. The CSD contains read only area and some of one time or multiple
programmable area by the customer or provider. They are read out by special commands. The RCA registers are write
only registers. Unlike CID and RCA looses its contents after powering down the card. Its value is reassigned in each
initialization cycle. The MultiMediaCard registers usage in SPI mode is summarized in Table“MultiMediaCard
Registers in SPI Mode”:
