RCA Register
The 16-bit relative card address register carries
the card address assigned by the host during the
card identification. This address is used for the
addressed host-card communication after the card
identification procedure. The default value of the
RCA register is 0x0001. The value 0x0000 is
reserved to set all cards in Stand-by State with
CMD7.

MultiMediaCard Registers in SPI Mode
In SPI mode, only the MultiMediaCard CSD and
CID registers are accessible. Their format is
identical to the format in the MultiMediaCard
mode. However, a few fields are irrelevant in SPI
mode.
In SPI mode, the card status register has a
different, shorter, format as well. Refer to the SPI
Protocol section for more details.
