HB28L064RM3, HB28J128MM3, HB28J128RM3, HB28J256MM3, HB28J256RM3 and HB28J512MM3
are highly integrated flash memories with serial and random access capability. It is accessible via a
dedicated serial interface optimized for fast and reliable data transmission. This interface allows several
cards to be stacked by through connecting their peripheral contacts. These Renesas MultiMediaCards are
fully compatible to a new consumer standard, called the MultiMediaCard system standard defined in the
MultiMediaCard system specification [1]. The MultiMediaCard system is a new mass-storage system
based on innovations in semiconductor technology. It has been developed to provide an inexpensive,
mechanically robust storage medium in card form for multimedia consumer applications. MultiMediaCard
allows the design of inexpensive players and drives without moving parts. A low power consumption and
a wide supply voltage range favor mobile, battery-powered applications such as audio players, organizers,
palmtops, electronic books, encyclopedia and dictionaries. Using very effective data compression schemes
such as MPEG, the MultiMediaCard will deliver enough capacity for all kinds of multimedia data:
software/programs, text, music, speech, images, video etc.

Memory core
All units in these Renesas MultiMediaCards are clocked by an internal clock generator. The Interface
driver unit synchronizes the DAT and CMD signals from external CLK to the internal used clock signal.
The card is controlled by the three line MultiMediaCard interface containing the signals: CMD, CLK,
DAT (refer to Chapter "Interfaces"). For the identification of the MultiMediaCard in a stack of
MultiMediaCards, a card identification register (CID) and a relative card address register (RCA) are
foreseen. An additional register contains different types of operation parameters. This register is called
card specific data register (CSD). The communication using the MultiMediaCard lines to access either the
memory field or the registers is defined by the MultiMediaCard standard (refer to Chapter
"Communication"). The card has its own power on detection unit. No additional master reset signal is
required to setup the card after power on. It is protected against short circuit during insertion and removal
while the MultiMediaCard system is powered up (refer to Chapter "Power Supply"). No external
programming voltage supply is required. The programming voltage is generated on card.
These Renesas MultiMediaCards support a second interface operation mode the SPI interface mode. The
SPI mode is activated if the CS signal is asserted (negative) during the reception of the reset command
(CMD0) (refer to Chapter "SPI Communication").

Interface
These Renesas MultiMediaCards' interface can operate in two different modes:
MultiMediaCard mode
SPI mode
Both modes are using the same pins. The default mode is the MultiMediaCard mode. The SPI mode is
selected by activating (= 0) the CS signal (Pin1) and sending the CMD0.
MultiMediaCard Mode
In the MultiMediaCard mode, all data is transferred over a minimal number of lines:
CLK: with each cycle of this signal a one-bit transfer on the command and data lines is done. The
frequency may vary between zero and the maximum clock frequency. The MultiMediaCard bus
master is free to generate these cycles without restrictions in the range of 0 to 20 MHz.
CMD: is a bidirectional command channel used for card initialization and data transfer commands.
The CMD signal has two operation modes: open drain for initialization mode and push pull for fast
command transfer. Commands are sent from the MultiMediaCard bus master to the MultiMediaCard
and responses vice versa.
DAT: is a bidirectional data channel with a width of one line. The DAT signal of the MultiMediaCard
operates in push pull mode.
RSV: is pulled up with resistor (2 M
typ) in the MultiMediaCard. The external pull-up resistor
should be recommended if the system requires.
