Note that the total capacitance of CMD and DAT lines will be consist of CHOST, CBUS and one CCARD only because they are  
connected separately to the SD Memory Card host.  
Host should consider total bus capacitance for each signal as the sum of CHOST, CBUS, and CCARD, these parameters are  
defined by per signal. The host can determine CHOST and CBUS so that total bus capacitance is less than the card estimated  
capacitance load (CL=40 pF). The SD Memory Card guarantees its bus timing when total bus capacitance is less than  
maximum value of CL (40 pF).

Register Information  
Within the card interface six registers are defined: OCR, CID, CSD, RCA, DSR and SCR. These can be accessed only  
by corresponding commands (see Chapter 4.7). The OCR, CID, CSD and SCR registers carry the card/content specific  
information, while the RCA and DSR registers are configuration registers storing actual configuration parameters.  
1. OCR register  
The 32-bit operation conditions register stores the VDD voltage profile of the card. Additionally, this register  
includes status information bits. One status bit is set if the card power up procedure has been finished. This register  
includes another status bit indicating the card capacity status after set power up status bit. The OCR register shall be  
implemented by the cards. The 32-bit operation conditions register stores the VDD voltage profile of the card. Bit 7 of  
OCR is newly defined for Dual Voltage Card and set to 0 in default. If a Dual Voltage Card does not receive CMD8, OCR  
bit 7 in the response indicates 0, and the Dual Voltage Card which received CMD8, sets this bit to 1.  
Additionally, this register includes 2 more status information bits. Bit 31 - Card power up status bit, this status bit is  
set if the card power up procedure has been finished. Bit 30 - Card capacity status bit, this status bit is set to 1 if card is  
High Capacity SD Memory Card. 0 indicates that the card is Standard Capacity SD Memory Card. The Card Capacity  
status bit is valid after the card power up procedure is completed and the card power up status bit is set to 1. The Host  
shall read this status bit to identify a Standard or High Capacity SD Memory Card.  
The OCR register shall be implemented by the cards.  
OCR Register Definition  
11  
Transcend Information Inc.  
SDHC Card series  
4~32GB High Capacity Secure Digital Card  
1) This bit is valid only when the card power up status bit is set.  
2) This bit is set to LOW if the card has not finished the power up routine.  
The supported voltage range is coded as shown in Table 5-1. A voltage range is not supported if the  
corresponding bit value is set to LOW. As long as the card is busy, the corresponding bit (31) is set to  
LOW.  
2. CID Register  
The Card IDentification (CID) register is 128 bits wide. It contains the card identification information used during the card  
identification phase. Every individual flash card shall have a unique identification number. The structure of the CID  
register is defined in the following paragraphs:  
MID  
An 8-bit binary number that identifies the card manufacturer. The MID number is controlled, defined,  
and allocated to a SD Memory Card manufacturer by the SD-3C, LLC. This procedure is established to  
ensure uniqueness of the CID register.  
OID  
A 2-character ASCII string that identifies the card OEM and/or the card contents (when used as a  
distribution media either on ROM or FLASH cards). The OID number is controlled, defined, and allocated  
to a SD Memory Card manufacturer by the SD-3C, LLC. This procedure is established to ensure  
uniqueness of the CID register.  
Note: SD-3C, LLC licenses companies that wish to manufacture and/or sell SD Memory Cards, including but not limited to flash memory,  
ROM, OTP, RAM, and SDIO Combo Cards.  
SD-3C, LLC is a limited liability company established by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. Ltd., SanDisk Corporation and Toshiba  
Corporation.  
PNM  
The product name is a string, 5 ASCII characters long.  
PRV  
12  
Transcend Information Inc.  
SDHC Card series  
4~32GB High Capacity Secure Digital Card  
The product revision is composed of two Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) digits, four bits each, representing an “n.m”  
revision number. The “n” is the most significant nibble and “m” is the least significant nibble.  
As an example, the PRV binary value field for product revision “6.2” will be: 0110 0010  
PSN  
The Serial Number is 32 bits of binary number.  
MDT  
The manufacturing date composed of two hexadecimal digits, one is 8 bit representing the year(y)  
and the other is four bits representing the month(m).  
The “m” field [11:8] is the month code. 1 = January.  
The “y” field [19:12] is the year code. 0 = 2000.  
As an example, the binary value of the Date field for production date “April 2001” will be:  
00000001 0100.  
CRC  
CRC7 checksum (7 bits).  
3. CSD Register  
Table 5-16 shows Definition of the CSD for the High Capacity SD Memory Card (CSD Version 2.0). The following  
sections describe the CSD fields and the relevant data types for the High Capacity SD Memory Card.  
CSD Version 2.0 is applied to only the High Capacity SD Memory Card. The field name in parenthesis is set to fixed  
value and indicates that the host is not necessary to refer these fields. The fixed values enables host, which refers to  
these fields, to keep compatibility to CSD Version 1.0. The Cell Type field is coded as follows: R = readable, W(1) =  
writable once, W = multiple writable.

CSD Register Structure  
TAAC  
This field is fixed to 0Eh, which indicates 1 ms. The host should not use TAAC, NSAC, and R2W_FACTOR to calculate  
timeout and should uses fixed timeout values for read and write operations (See 4.6.2).  
NSAC  
This field is fixed to 00h. NSAC should not be used to calculate time-out values.  
TRAN_SPEED  
The following table defines the maximum data transfer rate per one data line - TRAN_SPEED:  
15  
Transcend Information Inc.  
SDHC Card series  
4~32GB High Capacity Secure Digital Card  
Note that for current SD Memory Cards that field must be always 0_0110_010b (032h) which is equal to 25MHz - the  
mandatory maximum operating frequency of SD Memory Card.  
In High-Speed mode, that field must be always 0_1011_010b (05Ah) which is equal to 50MHz. And when the timing  
mode returns to the default by CMD6 or CMD0 command, its value will be 032h.  
CCC  
The SD Memory Card command set is divided into subsets (command classes). The card command class register CCC  
defines which command classes are supported by this card. A value of ‘1’ in a CCC bit means that the corresponding  
command class is supported.  
READ_BL_LEN  
This field is fixed to 9h, which indicates READ_BL_LEN=512 Byte.  
READ_BL_PARTIAL  
This field is fixed to 0, which indicates partial block read is inhibited and only unit of block access is allowed.  
WRITE_BLK_MISALIGN  
This field is fixed to 0, which indicates write access crossing physical block boundaries is always disabled in High  
Capacity SD Memory Card.  
READ_BLK_MISALIGN  
This field is fixed to 0, which indicates read access crossing physical block boundaries is always  
disabled in High Capacity SD Memory Card.  
DSR_IMP

C_SIZE  
This field is expanded to 22 bits and can indicate up to 2 TBytes (It is the same as the maximum memory space specified  
by a 32-bit block address.)  
This parameter is used to calculate the user data area capacity in the SD memory card (not include the protected area).  
The user data area capacity is calculated from C_SIZE as follows: memory capacity = (C_SIZE+1) * 512K byte  
As the maximum capacity of the Physical Layer Specification Version 2.00 is 32 GB, the upper 6 bits of this field shall be  
set to 0.  
ERASE_BLK_EN  
This field is fixed to 1, which means the host can erase one or multiple units of 512 bytes.  
SECTOR_SIZE  
This field is fixed to 7Fh, which indicates 64 KBytes. This value does not relate to erase operation. Version 2.00 cards  
indicates memory boundary by AU size and this field should not be used.  
WP_GRP_SIZE  
This field is fixed to 00h. The High Capacity SD Memory Card does not support write protected groups.  
WP_GRP_ENABLE  
This field is fixed to 0. The High Capacity SD Memory Card does not support write protected groups.  
R2W_FACTOR  
This field is fixed to 2h, which indicates 4 multiples. Write timeout can be calculated by multiplying the read access time  
and R2W_FACTOR. However, the host should not use this factor and should use 250 ms for write timeout  
WRITE_BL_LEN  
This field is fixed to 9h, which indicates WRITE_BL_LEN=512 Byte.  
WRITE_BL_PARTIAL  
This field is fixed to 0, which indicates partial block read is inhibited and only unit of block access is allowed.

Defines if the contents is original (= ‘0’) or has been copied (=’1’). The COPY bit for OTP and MTPdevices, sold to end  
consumers, is set to ‘1’ which identifies the card contents as a copy. The COPY bit is an one time programmable bit.  
PERM_WRITE_PROTECT  
Permanently protects the whole card content against overwriting or erasing (all write and erase commands for this card  
are permanently disabled). The default value is ‘0’, i.e. not permanently write protected.  
TMP_WRITE_PROTECT  
Temporarily protects the whole card content from being overwritten or erased (all write and erase commands for this  
card are temporarily disabled). This bit can be set and reset. The default value is ‘0’, i.e. not write protected.  
FILE_FORMAT  
This field is set to 0. Host should not use this field.  
CRC  
The CRC field carries the check sum for the CSD contents.  
The checksum has to be recalculated by the host for any CSD modification. The default corresponds to the initial CSD  
contents.  
The following table lists the correspondence between the CSD entries and the command classes. A ‘+’ entry indicates  
that the CSD field affects the commands of the related command class.
