1.13 SDSPI Driver Asynchronous - SDSPI Read Write

This example application shows how to use the SDSPI driver in asynchronous mode to perform block operations on the SD Card Media.

Description

This example uses the SDSPI driver in asynchronous mode. The asynchronous mode of the SDSPI driver performs non-blocking read and write operations. The SDSPI driver is configured to use DMA.
