How To Get Sd Card Serial Cid

Using the SD library to retrieve information over a serial port

If you are looking to read the CID number of an SD Card or to extract the CID number off an SD Card, you can only do this with specific hardware. You cannot read the CID through a computer's SD Card socket. All GPS devices and most phones will lock software to the CID number of a SD or MicroSD card. SD and microSD cards are used for storage in a variety of applications. From cameras to Raspberry Pis, phones, dashcams, and the Nintendo Switch, sooner or later you’re going to need an SD card for something. Unfortunately, there are a lot of fake SD and microSD cards floating around on the Internet.

This example shows how to read information about a SD card. The example reports volume type, free space and other information using the SD library, sending it over the serial port. Please click here for more information on the SD library.

Hardware Required

Arduino or Genuino board
Ethernet Shield (or other board with an SD slot)
Formatted SD card

Circuit

image developed using Fritzing. For more circuit examples, see the Fritzing project page

The Arduino or Genuino board has to be connected to the Ethernet Shield and also has a USB cable connected to the computer.

Code

The code below is configured for use with an Ethernet shield, which has an onboard SD slot. In the setup(), call SD.begin(), naming pin 4 as the CS pin. This pin varies depending on the make of shield or board you are using.

How To Get Sd Card Serial Cider

The code uses some undocumented utility libraries to report information about the SD card. This information includes formatting (FAT16 or FAT32) and file structure, as well as the amount of free space and space used on the card.

/*
SD card test
This example shows how use the utility libraries on which the'
SD library is based in order to get info about your SD card.
Very useful for testing a card when you're not sure whether its working or not.
Pin numbers reflect the default SPI pins for Uno and Nano models
The circuit:
SD card attached to SPI bus as follows:
** SDO - pin 11 on Arduino Uno/Duemilanove/Diecimila
** SDI - pin 12 on Arduino Uno/Duemilanove/Diecimila
** CLK - pin 13 on Arduino Uno/Duemilanove/Diecimila
** CS - depends on your SD card shield or module.
Pin 10 used here for consistency with other Arduino examples

if(!volume.init(card)){

while(1);

Serial.print('Clusters: ');
Serial.println(volume.clusterCount());
Serial.print('Blocks x Cluster: ');
Serial.println(volume.blocksPerCluster());
Serial.print('Total Blocks: ');
Serial.println(volume.blocksPerCluster()* volume.clusterCount());
Serial.println();
// print the type and size of the first FAT-type volume
uint32_t volumesize;
Serial.print('Volume type is: FAT');
Serial.println(volume.fatType(),DEC);
volumesize = volume.blocksPerCluster();// clusters are collections of blocks
volumesize *= volume.clusterCount();// we'll have a lot of clusters
volumesize /=2;// SD card blocks are always 512 bytes (2 blocks are 1KB)
Serial.print('Volume size (Kb): ');
Serial.println(volumesize);
Serial.print('Volume size (Mb): ');
volumesize /=1024;
Serial.println(volumesize);
Serial.print('Volume size (Gb): ');
Serial.println((float)volumesize /1024.0);
Serial.println('nFiles found on the card (name, date and size in bytes): ');
root.openRoot(volume);
// list all files in the card with date and size
root.ls(LS_R LS_DATE LS_SIZE);
root.close();
}
voidloop(void){
}

Please note: the cluster size is defined at format time by the user and has some default values that can be changed by users following some rules. In the sketch above we are using the default size for a block that is set at 512 bytes by standards. This value is not the cluster size: that is calculated as the number of blocks per cluster. You may find more in depth information about cluster sizes in this article.
