Notes:
1. The supply or load switch for the SD Card VDD must be enabled with a GPIO from Jetson. This
is required for correct operation after a warm boot. The GPIO used should be selected so VDD
is not powered on by default.
2. The supply (regulator, load switch, etc.) used to supply the SD Card VDD rail should be current
limited if the supply is shorted to GND.
3. Having 0Ω, 0402 resistor is recommended in case of issues with EMI where it can be replaced
with an appropriate device.
