Subject: Change SD-Port into SDIO-Port?
From: Jabba
Date: 17 Jan, 2003 15:29:38
Hi!
Is there any way to change that SD port into a port with
SDIO-support? (maybe ripping sd out and pasting sdio in) ???

Yeah, I would also like to know this, although I would guess it
is a hardware shortfall.

This would enable us to get much more add-ons for this limited
device.
The main missing thing being Bluetooth ! !

Have a look at the link below - who knows, it might just happen.

The info posted there doesn't help since the XDA has a StrongARM and not an XScale CPU.
Read it.
If you read it properly: a) the article doesn't exclusively talk about XScale b) the person posting wasn't suggesting it applies to the XDA, just not to give up hope.
I have my doubts, but I'm not writing off the possibility of a solution.

Sorry, but you're wrong. There is no way you could try to enable SDIO in the same way on a StrongARM you could do on an XScale.
This is because the XScale has an integrated SDIO-cabable MMC-controller on-chip and the StrongARM has not.
I have to agree. I'm sorry, Martin Long, but you should read the article properly. It's even stated in its headline: "Got X-Scale? Got SD? You have SDIO!"...): The article DOES talk exclusively about XScale.
The XScale processor has an on-chip MMC controller which can be used to support SDIO cards in 1-bit mode if the processor is wired properly (see the comments in the discussion forum on pocketpcthoughts.com).
The StrongARM processor has no on-chip MMC oder SD controller. So the trick suggested in the article would never work for the StrongARM.
Sorry but that is the reality.
Actually I am right....
I know this doesn't apply to the XDA, however, as I said, the article doesn't exclusively refer to the XScale. Read the line: "Any OMAP processor device"
I wasn't trying to make a point that this definately applies to XDA, just that there may be a way around at some point, but, as I also said, i doubt it.

Open Cradle, and locate beige 14 pin connector
Pin 1 is nearest the USB connector
Pin (cradle) = XDA
1 GND
2 Pin 6: RS232_DCD
3 Pin 7: RS232_CTS
4 Pin 8: RS232_TXD
5 Pin 9: RS232_RTS
6 GND
7 Pin10:RS232_RXD
8 Pin11:RS232_DTR
9 & 10 GND
11 NC
12,13 &14 +5v Vcc
Hope this helps

To connect a GPS reciever to the XDA use this::
RS-232:________XDA pins
1.NC
2.Rx _________ 10 RXD
3.Tx _________ 8 TXD
4.DTR ________ 6 DCD & 11 DTR
5.GND ________ GND
6.NC
7.RTS ________ 7 CTS & 9 RTS
8.NC
9.NC
This work perfectly cos' I am using it!!
Any queries email me on afarrellieyahoo.ie

We used (and continue to use) IDA Pro. Really nice code analysis
features, great overall value...

Is it possible to replace the built in infrared diode with
another one with higher output(for TV remote control)? Does
anyone know a good type?
Thanks

I have connected a Laptop GPS reciever to my XDA successfully by
doing this::
9 Pin D XDA
1. NC
2. Rx 10 RXD
3. Tx 8 TXD
4. DTR 6 DCD & 11 DTR (joined together)
5. GND GND
6 NC
7. RTS 7 CTS & 9 RTS (joined together)
8. NC
9. NC
The reciever I got also had an PS-2 (mouse) connection to give
it power. I bought from Maplins a female PS-2 end and put 5V
into it for power (from the car charger) for the GPS reciever.
Hope this helps. Any questions Email me [email protected]
