SDIO Driver Sample Application

Description

The SDIO Driver sample application validates SDIO host/device communication on SR110 with a connected WLAN module.

It performs an end-to-end SDIO bring-up and transfer sequence, including:

  • SDIO host initialization and clock/voltage setup.

  • SDIO device initialization flow (CMD0/CMD5/CMD52-based setup and readiness checks).

  • CMD52 register read/write verification.

  • CMD53 data transfer verification in byte mode and block mode (read and write).

  • Data integrity checks between transmitted and received buffers.

The sample logs each stage with pass/fail status so users can verify SDIO link functionality and transfer correctness.

Hardware Requirements

  • Astra Machina Micro (SR110)

  • WLAN chip module 4612 or 43711 attached to the board (required)

Prerequisites

Building and Flashing the Example using VS Code

Use the VS Code flow described in the SR110 guide and the VS Code Extension guide:

Build (VS Code):

  1. Open Build and Deploy -> Build Configurations.

  2. Select sdio_sample_app in the Application dropdown.

  3. Build with Build (SDK + App) for the first build, or Build App for rebuilds.

Flash (VS Code):

  1. Use Image Conversion to generate the flash image.

  2. Use Image Flashing (SWD/JTAG) to flash the firmware image.


Building and Flashing the Example using CLI

Use the CLI flow described in the SR110 guide:

Build (CLI):

  1. From <sdk-root>/examples, build the example:

    cd <sdk-root>/examples
    export SRSDK_DIR=<sdk-root>
    make cm55_sdio_sample_app_defconfig BOARD=SR110_RDK BUILD=SRSDK
    

Flash (CLI):

  1. Activate the SDK venv (required for image generation tools):

    # Linux/macOS
    source <sdk-root>/.venv/bin/activate
    # Windows PowerShell
    .\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
    
  2. Generate the flash image:

    cd <sdk-root>/tools/srsdk_image_generator
    python srsdk_image_generator.py \
      -B0 \
      -flash_image \
      -sdk_secured \
      -spk "<sdk-root>/tools/srsdk_image_generator/B0_Input_examples/spk_rc4_1_0_secure_otpk.bin" \
      -apbl "<sdk-root>/tools/srsdk_image_generator/B0_Input_examples/sr100_b0_bootloader_ver_0x012F_ASIC.axf" \
      -m55_image "<sdk-root>/examples/out/sr110_cm55_fw/release/sr110_cm55_fw.elf" \
      -flash_type "GD25LE128" \
      -flash_freq "67"
    
  3. Flash the firmware image:

    cd <sdk-root>
    python tools/openocd/scripts/flash_xspi_tcl.py \
      --cfg_path tools/openocd/configs/sr110_m55.cfg \
      --image tools/srsdk_image_generator/Output/B0_Flash/B0_flash_full_image_GD25LE128_67Mhz_secured.bin \
      --erase-all
    

Running the Application using VS Code Extension

  1. Ensure the 4612/43711 WLAN chip is attached to the Astra Machina Micro board.

  2. Press RESET on the board after flashing.

  3. For logging output, click SERIAL MONITOR and connect to the DAP logger port on J14.

    • To make it easier to identify, ensure only J14 is plugged in (not J13).

    • The logger port is not guaranteed to be consistent across OSes. As a starting point:

      • Windows: try the lower-numbered J14 COM port first.

      • Linux/macOS: try the higher-numbered J14 port first.

    • If you do not see logs after a reset, switch to the other J14 port.

  4. SDIO sample logs appear in the logger window, including CMD52/CMD53 transfer checks and pass/fail results.
