You can do it using the "diskutil" command in Terminal. Read over this article to make sure you get the drive and options correct. The GUI Disk Utility only does FAT32.
Disk Utility?
You can use Disk Utility to format to FAT32, but not the older FAT16. You would need to use the Terminal process I linked to format to FAT16.Could I format a 64GB+ microSD card (exFAT) to FAT/FAT32 using disk utility? This is to use with a dash cam that is limited to 32GB and under.
You could give this a try, it's from the SD Association themselves:

there are both Mac and Win versions.

Correct. MS-DOS in Disk Utility is FAT32.MS DOS FAT is FAT32, correct? I wanted to know if disk utility will even give me the FAT32 format option instead of only exFAT for 64GB+ cards.
tried that, It gives you no choices other than just to format the card/device.
