Module

Internal Reference: MOD-130

Read and write data from an SD card using your Arduino.

Pinout:

Gnd - Gnd on Arduino board
3.3V - not used
5V - 5V on Arduino board (in code below the 5V can be connected to digital pin 8 to draw power from there)
CS -  Digital pin 10
MOSI  -  Digital pin 11
SCK  -  Digital pin 13
MISO  -  Digital pin 12
Gnd - not used

Example

sd-card-module-fritzed
#include <SD.h>
//Set by default for the SD Card Library
//MOSI = Pin 11
//MISO = Pin 12
//SCLK = PIN 13
//We always need to set the CS Pin
int CS_pin = 10;
int pow_pin = 8;
float refresh_rate = 0.0;
void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("Initializing Card");
  //CS Pin is an output
  pinMode(CS_pin, OUTPUT);
  //Card will Draw Power from Pin 8, so set it high
  pinMode(pow_pin, OUTPUT);
  digitalWrite(pow_pin, HIGH);
  if (!SD.begin(CS_pin))
  {
      Serial.println("Card Failure");
      return;
  }
  Serial.println("Card Ready");
  //Read the Configuration information (COMMANDS.txt)
  File commandFile = SD.open("COMMANDS.txt");
  if (commandFile)
  {
    Serial.println("Reading Command File");
    float decade = pow(10, (commandFile.available() - 1));
    while(commandFile.available())
    {
      float temp = (commandFile.read() - '0');
      refresh_rate = temp*decade+refresh_rate;

  }
