Getting started with NUCLEO-F722ZE and a 16GB EMMC - MMC_PowerON fails

Hello everyone!

I have started a small journey to try to get started with eMMC memory and are trying to get it working.The end goal is to have a USB HS mass storage device eMMC working with a file system. (32gb or more)

My current step that I'm stuck is where the "MX_SDMMC1_MMC_Init" fails.

Specifically to get the eMMC voltage level fails.

/* SEND CMD1 APP_CMD with voltage range as argument */

I have some theories what can be wrong but any help would be really useful :)

  • Use external crystal as clock source on the NUCLEO instead of HSI [will try out this]
  • SD breakout card setup [not sure what that would be?]
  • Wrong clock configuration, currently targeting between 100-400kHz with the MMC divider [?]
  • EMMC memory not supporting the CMD1 in the initialization [no idea if it could be like that?]
  • Bad cable connection on my test board [will make another inspection or perhaps make a solder]
  • More???

Code steps at failure

I had similar problems with my STM32F407, the solution was to start with 1 bit and not 4 wide as my mmc did not support the 4 bits wide mode.
