Initialising an SD card with a 16F1825 PIC microcontroller

After nearly two days of headache and heartache - and thanks in no small part to the brilliant Arduino/AVR code from Chris McClelland- we finally managed to successfully initialise an SD card with our PIC microcontroller.

Before we stuff it up and it stops working, here's some demo code:

With a microSD card connected in an SD card holder, using RA0 to power the card through a transistor and using RA1 as the chip select line, with the SPI lines are per the hardware peripheral (SPI_Clock = RC0, SPI_MISO/data in =RC1, SPI_MOSI/data out=RC2/RA3) here's the output from the logic probe from boot-up:


There's also the start of our PWM/timer1 interrupt code in there, just so that we have a global interrupt handler. The PWM control is already coded up, but was mostly stripped out to allow us to focus on getting the SD card working.

And thanks to Chris McClelland, it looks like it is!
Thanks again Chris.
You're ace!
