Ps-vita - gamecard (10pins) / memorycard (9-pins)


PS Vita Cards

Two types of cards: Gamecards (on which games are sold) and Memorycards (to hold your savedata for games that don't use the storage on the Gamecards)

PS Vita Gamecards

Comparison: Nintendo 3DS cart, common SD card, PSVita Gamecard, common microSD card

PSVita Cards measurements

10 pin SD sized card (physical incompatible). ±1.4mm pitch.

Savegames stored on the Gamecards cannot be copied/exported.

Currently produced as 2GB and 4GB cards.

Notes:

  1. Direction is relative to card. I = Input, O = Output.
  2. PP = Push-Pull logic, OD = Open-Drain logic.
  3. S = Power Supply, NC = Not Connected (or logical high).
  4. The extended DAT lines (DAT1-DAT3) are input on power up. They start to operate as DAT lines after the SET_BUS_WIDTH command.
    It is the responsibility of the host designer to connect external pullup resistors to all data lines even if only DAT0 is to be used.
    Otherwise, non-expected high current consumption may occur due to the floating inputs of DAT1 & DAT2 (in case they are not used).
  5. After power up, DAT3 is input with 50Kohm(+/-20Kohm) pull-up (can be used for card detection or SPI mode selection.
    The pull-up may be disconnected by the user, during regular data transfer, with SET_CLR_CARD_DETECT (ACMD42) command.
