class SD – Secure digital Memory Card

The SD card class allows to configure and enable the memory card module of your Pycom module and automatically mount it as /sd as part of the file system. There is a single pin combination that can be used for the SD card, and the current implementation only works in 1-bit mode. The pin connections are as follows:

P8: DAT0, P23: SCLK and P4: CMD (no external pull-up resistors are needed)

If you have one of the Pycom expansion boards, then simply insert the card into the micro SD socket and run your script.

Quick Example Usage:

from machine import SD
import os

sd = SD()
os.mount(sd, '/sd')

# check the content
os.listdir('/sd')

# try some standard file operations
f = open('/sd/test.txt', 'w')
f.write('Testing SD card write operations')
f.close()
f = open('/sd/test.txt', 'r')
f.readall()
f.close()

Constructors

class machine.SD(id, ...)

Create a SD card object. See sd.init() for parameters if initialisation.

Methods

sd.init(id=0)

Enable the SD card.

sd.deinit()

Disable the SD card.
