A microSD card is used as non-volatile program memory. Alternatively, an eMMC memory can be used instead.
In the reset phase, the CPU requires a high signal (1.8 V) at signal SDHC1_CD#. For this reason, the signal is separated by a tristate
buffer during reset (see also (3), Table 5 and Figure 15). The pull-up is located on the TQMLS1012AL. All data lines provide ESD
protection.
Standard, high and extended capacity Card types are supported. For the transfer rates, the SD UHS-1 speed mode SDR104 with
theoretical max. 104 MB/s is supported in addition to Default Speed and High Speed Mode. The support of the UHS-1 speed
modes SDR12, SDR25, SDR50 and DDR50 is theoretically given but not verified.
The signals of the SDHC1 interface on the TQMLS1012AL are supplied via a separate PMIC controller, whose voltage value can be
set by the CPU to a 1.8 V or 3.3 V level (depending on the transmission mode). The conversion is usually done by the
corresponding driver and does not have to be done explicitly.
The signal SDHC1_WP is not used and is terminated accordingly.
