Connecting SD card to ESP8266

You can connect an SD card to some ESP8266 with the SPI GPIO broken out. For example: ESP8266 201 or 12E

Then connect your sd card (FAT32) like this to the ESP:

 Sd-->ESP8266
  1. CS –> IO2
  2. DI(MOSI)–>IO13
  3. VSS1–> GND
  4. VDD–>3.3v
  5. SCLK–>IO14
  6. Vss2–>GND
  7. DO(MISO)–>IO12

Take these instructions for help: http://www.esp8266.com/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=3558#p20419

Be sure to change CS to a free GPIO. Normally, this would be IO15 which has to be pulled to ground. Otherwise the ESP won't work. In this case I take IO2.

Now you can run the example “CardInfo” sketch included by the Arduino IDE. (BE sure to change the chip select pin!)
