Even though I didn't physically test my previous hypothesis, your repair proved what I mentioned about the WPS being open circuit causes a write error. In your case the CRC would have thought the card was write protected, aborted the write and gave the correct error indication. It is interesting that the data is still fed to the card reader as it passes through. I also noticed on a 67, that during a read, the WA WB pins have activity as well, but it doesn't exactly match the read data. I haven't checked, but maybe as card data is being shifted in to the holding buffers in the CRC, it is also being shifted out on the WA WB pins but delayed because of the time it takes to initially fill the buffer. As the sense chip is in read mode, the WA WB pins would be ignored. Well done Alberto cheers Tony |
