Wrong SPIs typology for ESP32C3

Open mgrenonville opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Board

esp32-c3-devkitm-1

Device Description

ESP32-C3 in devkitm-1

Hardware Configuration

Master SPI pins (4 - SCK, 5 - MISO, 6 - MOSI) to a slave module

Version

v2.0.6

IDE Name

PlatformIO

Operating System

Linux

Flash frequency

160Mhz

PSRAM enabled

yes

Upload speed

N/A

Description

According to documentation, ESP32C3 has 2 SPIs peripherals, splitted in SPI0 & SPI1 used for attached flash memory, and SPI2 that is a general purpose SPI controller.

When instanciating a SPI on ESP32C3, the default spi number is FSPI that expands to0. But this is confusing with the documentation that says SPI0 is for flash memory (and is compatible with convention in FSPI).

Other issue is that SPI.begin returns void, and when passing a value larger than SPI_COUNT, we don't get errors. Arduino library for esp8266 returns a boolean with success or failure.

Sketch

#include <SPI.h>
#include <Arduino.h>

#define HSPI_MISO MISO
#define HSPI_MOSI MOSI
#define HSPI_SCLK SCK
#define HSPI_SS 18

static const int spiClk = 100000; // 1 MHz


SPIClass *working = NULL;
SPIClass *notWorking = NULL;

void setup()
{

  Serial.begin(115200);
  Serial.setDebugOutput(true);

  working = new SPIClass();
  //notWorking = new SPIClass(HSPI);
  
  working->begin(HSPI_SCLK, HSPI_MISO, HSPI_MOSI);

  working->beginTransaction(SPISettings(spiClk, MSBFIRST, SPI_MODE0));
  Serial.printf("worked: %i != 0", working->getClockDivider());
  working->endTransaction();

  // set up slave select pins as outputs as the Arduino API
  // doesn't handle automatically pulling SS low
  pinMode(HSPI_SS, OUTPUT); // HSPI SS
}

void loop()
{
  delay(100);
}

Debug Message

Depending on SPIClass, sketch returns getClockDivider() == 0 or a correct value

Thanks for the report @mgrenonville . We will look into it for 3.0.0

@P-R-O-C-H-Y Please take a look on this, postponing it to 3.1.0 milestone, there are 2 relevant tickets I am closing in favor of this one.
