USDHC (SD card)
An SD card can be connected to the USDHC2 interface of the i.MX 8M Mini. All signals are routed from the i.MX 8M Mini to the
TQMa8MxML LGA pads. The supply voltage V_3V3_SD provided at TQMa8MxML LGA pad F6 can be used to supply SD cards.
V_3V3_SD can supply up to 400 mA.
The CPU internal pull resistors are used as pull-ups for the signal lines. External pull-up resistors are therefore not required.

The voltage level of the data signals between SD card and CPU is controlled by the signal SD2_VSELECT on the TQMa8MxML.
