Figure 7. Default Startup (Pass Thru Mode)
Default Power-Up (Pass Thru Mode)
In the default Pass Thru mode, the MAX14500–
MAX14503 are transparent and the existing host func-
tions (access to SD cards and USB) are preserved
(Figure 7). The host µP reads and writes data to the SD
card from the SD port, and can communicate to a PC
through its existing full-speed USB port. All of the fea-
tures of the original chipset are intact. The MAX14500–
MAX14503 sleep when in Pass Thru mode (WAKEUP =
0), when the MODE input is low, or when the MODE bits
[2:1] in control register (0x00) are set to Card Reader
mode, not active. In Sleep mode, the internal microcon-
troller is turned off and current consumption is mini-
mized. The settings for SD port switches for card 1 and
card 2 are controlled by SD port switch bits [4:3] in the
control register.
Card Reader Mode
In Card Reader mode, the PC communicates with the
SD card through USB with an internal Hi-Speed SD
card reader, bypassing the host µP. Figure 8 shows
card reader mode with SD card 1 connected to the PC
with the internal card reader. The 40-pin TQFN can
connect to a single SD card in Card Reader mode. With
the 56-bump WLP operating under I2C control, either
SD card can be selected for Card Reader mode.
