Sd Status; Rca Register - SanDisk SDSDB-32-201-80 - Industrial Grade Flash Memory Card Product Manual

3.5.6. SD Status

The SD Status contains status bits that are related to the SD Card proprietary features and may be used for future
application specific usage. The size of the SD Status is one data block of 512 bits. The content of this register is
transmitted to the Host over the DAT bus along with 16 bits CRC. The SD Status is sent to the host over the DAT
bus if ACMD13 is sent (CMD55 followed with CMD13). ACMD13 can be sent to a card only in 'tran_state' (card
selected). The SD Status structure is listed in Table 3-29. The same abbreviations for 'type' and 'clear condition'
were used as for the Card Status above.

3.5.7. RCA Register

The 16-bit relative card address register carries the card address that is published by the card during the card
identification. This address is used for the addressed host-card communication after the card identification
procedure.

In the future, the 8 LSBs will
be used to define different
variations of an SD Card (each
bit will define different SD
