I need somewhere to put my scraps of code. These may or may not work.

DMA SPI

Also covered by peripheral libraries example. Must have RX and TX enabled (for MX). RX must empty buffer. Everything put into TX, goes into RX (they share buffer). Therefore, you must use two DMA channels to use SPI and DMA to SDO something.

Goes like this:

  • DMA puts something into SPIxTXREG buffer
  • SDO outputs 'thing'
  • SPIxRXREG now contains 'thing' also
  • Transfer via DMA SPIxRXREG to memory
  • continue until DCHxSSIZ is complete (note that some MX are 8 bits for SSIZ, which means only 256 items, while some later are 16 bits)

If you can't keep up with the RX, and it overflows, there is a flag that is set in SPIxSTAT. ROVR I think.

NOTE: The RX SPI should be chen and cforce'd (called via software) first before the TX SPI, otherwise it might not sync up.
