I am using an Arduino UNO with a MicroSD card (Intenso MicroSDHC 8GB). I am trying to make the sensor work but it does not cooperate ...I got the code from the Arduino examples and it's still not working. The Arduino is working properly and the SD card as well. I have already done a format to the SD but the monitor still shows that initialization failed.
#include <SPI.h>
#include <SD.h>
File myFile;
void setup()
{
// Open serial communications and wait for port to open:
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.print("Initializing SD card...");
Serial.println("initialization done.");
// open the file. note that only one file can be open at a time,
// so you have to close this one before opening another.
myFile = SD.open("test.txt", FILE_WRITE);
// if the file opened okay, write to it:
if (myFile) {
Serial.print("Writing to test.txt...");
myFile.println("This is a test file :)");
myFile.println("testing 1, 2, 3.");
for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
myFile.println(i);
}
// close the file:
myFile.close();
Serial.println("done.");
} else {
// if the file didn't open, print an error:
Serial.println("error opening test.txt");
}
}
void loop() {
// nothing happens after setup
}
That's an old schematic I had created but the arduino will change (will be a nano or micro)
Also we need to take into consideration expect from (BMP 180, NEO6M (GPS), Micro SD, Buzzer) a High Dynamic Range Digital Light Sensor, CCS811 Air Quality Sensor Breakout - VOC & eCO2, one led, and maybe a rocker switch
Please post the correct schematic diagram for the SD test case (hand drawn is fine), post the code you tried using code tags, and describe what happened when you tried it.
/*
SD card read/write
This example shows how to read and write data to and from an SD card file
The circuit:
SD card attached to SPI bus as follows:
** MOSI - pin 11
** MISO - pin 12
** CLK - pin 13
** CS - pin 4 (for MKRZero SD: SDCARD_SS_PIN)
