EMMC Registers

Revision as of 19:10, 28 February 2016 by Dazzozo (talk | contribs)

These registers are used to access the system NAND and the inserted SD card. Both devices use the same interface.

The IO interface for SDMC/NAND seems to be very similar to the DSi; see libnds for sample code and documentation, and GBATEK for better documentation.

3DS SDMC/NAND IO registers are located at 0x10006000 and apparently mirrored at 0x10007000. It seems the 0x10007000 mirror is never used on retail units.

EMMC_STATUS0

Bit Description
3 SD card removal flag (Set to 1 when SD card is removed)
4 SD card insertion flag (Set to 1 when SD card is inserted)
5 SD card insertion status (?) (0 = missing, 1 = inserted)
