I’m designing our base board for NX module. We don’t need the M.2 E slot but want to use SDMMC1. I have several questions:
Can SDMMC1 be used alone without using M.2 Key E slot?
If the answer of Q1 is OK. Because SDIO_D1 is shared with M2M_ALERT (NVMe), if I want to use both SDMMC1 and NVMe, I must assign M2M_ALERT to another gpio, right? As I don’t need M.2 Key E slot, may I assign it to GPIO10?
We think the M2M_ALERT# is just a GPIO pin and left for sw developer over m2e to use it as part of sideband signalling as they wish.
Its not a mandatory requirement to use this pin. Our driver also not uses this on our devkit.
If you wants to use it, you can find our GPIO for it.
