Hi,

Can anyone give me any information on how to interface a Micro SD card to the Omega 2 ?

OR, how is the Micro SD Card connected on the Omega 2+ ?
What pins are used ?
The pins used for the Micro SD Card interface are from the general I/O pins on the Header or are these different I/O pins which are not available otherwise to the users ?

We need to have the Micro SD card on a different connector (Locking type - not the push-push type used in the Omega 2+) and hence need to know how to do this ...

I am unable to find any schematics anywhere for this !

Something like this might be an option to relocate the micro SD card slot

@Jeff-Seese Thanks Jeff, I was not aware such a thing existed ! This may be of use in another product where the SD card needs to be accessible by the end user, to change the content as and when required.

But still, if I only could have the connection details ....
