Hi All,
We are Using:
Platform:
Version: 2022-04 (22.4.0)Build Id: R20220331-2313
SSP: v2.3.0
S7DK
Problem:
We want to use 16GB eMMC all of which use a JEDEC v5.0/5.1.
when we use such a chip in our system it does not work.
We are using SSP 2.3.0
Any Clues?
Regards,
Surojit
Hello Surojit,
Are you using this eMMC as the extension of the flash memory?
S7G2 is the 32-bit MCU, so the maximum addressable space is limited with 4 GB, maybe that's the reason.
Kind regards,
Sergey

Hi Sergey,
Thank You for your prompt reply.
We are not using eMMC as flash memory,
It is used with FileX to store data as an external Media,
We have tested with 16GB SD-Card and it works fine.
4 GB eMMC works fine but 16GB eMMC is not working.
According to the S7G2 Hardware User's Manual, "The MMC interface supports 1-bit, 4-bit, and 8-bit MMC buses that provide eMMC 4.51 (JEDEC Standard JESD 84-B451) device access. This interface also provides backward compatibility and supports for high-speed SDR transfer modes." (https://www.renesas.com/us/en/document/man/s7g2-microcontroller-group-users-manual?r=1054631#G47.2512524)
So probably, it just doesn't support the later JEDEC version.
We need to use a 16GB eMMC can you suggest any work around?
Thank You,
Since eMMC 5.0+ is being used globally by the vendors, the SSP must be updated to support the same,
It is the need of the hour,
Please Contact your Development Team.
Do keep me posted.
Surojit.
Sure, I'll contact them and will keep you updated.
Thank you for treating this as urgent.
Please share about any development regarding this issue.
If your need is urgent, you should be able to init you eMMC in an earlier, pre-5.1 mode and use the existing driver. Check your datasheet and the HAL layer documentation.
Hi larry,
We have checked the datasheets and no such option is available.
