nRF51822 and SDFileSystem
I'm curious as to why SDFileSystem does not work on the nRF51-DK. This is a bit disconcerting for me. Is it the way that SPI is implemented on the nRF51822? Can it be made to work? Will it work on the nRF52 ?
Cheers,

Hi I'm facing the same problem. I'm using LCD with SPI to check whether SPI works correctly or not.
Please check folllowing source code: functionA(); this function makes lcd yellow fp = fopen("/SD/sample.bmp", "r"); if(fp == NULL) { functionB(); this function makes lcd red return ; } functionC(); this function makes lcd blue
When I don't use SD card, LCD works correctly. However, when I use both of them, above program doesn't work. LCD remains yellow. If file isn't opened correctly, LCD must become red. Opened correctly, LCD must become blue. However, LCD remains yellow and probably program stops.
Can't nRF51822 working with mbed use SDFileSystem lib?
SPI of LCD uses p12(MOSI), p13(MISO), p15(SCLK) and p2(CS). SPI of SDFileSystem uses p12(MOSI), p13(MISO), p15(SCLK) and p21(CS).
Best regards
What problems are you having?
