Re: MMC/SD support on LPC2000

2006-01-17 by Carsten Grøn

Sean, 
the reason (for me) would be that it would be simpler on the LPC 
board, no need for FAT etc (I'm actually also looking into prllc's FAT 
implementation with SD support at $139,- which I think is very 
reasonable). Also I'm a little worried that the card will be "killed" 
by problems with write-endurance (if using FAT, the FAT tables are 
written very often), and if used as a circular buffer, each sector 
will be written (relatively) seldom.

Regards,
Carsten
