Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage of this MicroSD module?

The module is designed for a 5V DC power supply, making it directly compatible with standard Arduino boards like the UNO and Mega without requiring any level-shifting components. Ensure your power source can provide a stable 5V supply.

How do I communicate with this module?

Communication is handled via the SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) protocol. You will need to connect the module's CS (Chip Select), MOSI, MISO, and SCK pins to the corresponding SPI pins on your microcontroller. Standard Arduino SD library can be used for card initialization and file operations.

What type of SD card does this module support?

It supports the MicroSD card format, also known as TransFlash (TF), which is the smallest commonly available SD card. Ensure the card is formatted with a compatible file system (e.g., FAT16 or FAT32) before use. The module is typically compatible with cards up to 32GB capacity.
