SD Card Adapter Kit (#32313)
The SD Card Adapter Kit allows you to easily connect an SD Flash Memory Card to your Propeller
TM
chip
or other microcontroller. This adapter contains the components required for an SPI interface between
the host microcontroller and the SD memory card. The SD Card Adapter Kit includes a card detect switch
which allows you to detect when a memory card is physically present in the socket. It also includes a
switch to determine the read/write status of the inserted card, preventing accidental loss of data.
Mounting holes are available so you can install the adapter in your application.
