SPI and DigitalOut creation order bug ?

Hello,

Can anybody explain why

int main()
{
DigitalOut cs(PTD4);
SPI spi(PTD6,PTD7,PTD5);
MPU9250 imu(spi, cs,PTC3,timer,&usbSerial);
imu.init();

}

is not behaving the a same as :

int main()
{
SPI spi(PTD6,PTD7,PTD5);
DigitalOut cs(PTD4);
MPU9250 imu(spi, cs,PTC3,timer,&usbSerial);

imu.init();
}

The later does not work : communication with magnetometer gives 1st case : AK8963Whoami= 72 ASAX=177 ASAY=176 ASAZ=166 CNTL1= 18

2nd case : AK8963Whoami= 0 ASAX=0 ASAY=0 ASAZ=0 CNTL1= 0

Thanks for your clue because I don't have any ...

BTW: I am using a K22F board connected to a Invensense MPU9250

IS this global scope? same translation unit? What does "does not work" mean ?

I suspect you have found a bug with DigitalOut's initialisation for that platform.

For the first "working" case you initialize DigitalOut on an apparently unrelated pin first. You then Initialize the spi object which will configure the pinmux correctly for use by the spi module.
This overrides any misconfiguration by DigitalOut.

In the second (faulty) example you initialze the spi object, which at that time would work just fine, but....
When you initialize the DigitalOut the pinmux for one of the spi pins gets altered when it shouldn't.

I don't have a K22F to do any testing with, but Martin does so perhaps he can have a quick look.

If you have the time, have a look at the datasheet for your device and try doing a printf of the involved pinmux registers for both a working and failing example.

I suspect that you won't even need the rest of your code, just initialize the spi and digital out, then in main print out your pinmux registers.

+1 for the printing out the pinmux. that can be what goes wrong there. Althought it is using KSDK and I havent seen any issues regarding mux, but might be wrong..

Hi Martin, Any chance you can do a quick test with something like (untested and uncompiled)

#include "mbed.h"
#include "spi.h"
#define PinMux "Insert PinMux Register Location Here"
int main() {
    DigitalOut cs(PTD4);
    SPI spi(PTD6,PTD7,PTD5);
    printf("Working pinmux: %x",PinMux);
}

and

#include "mbed.h"
#include "spi.h"
#define PinMux "Insert PinMux Register Location Here"
int main() {
    SPI spi(PTD6,PTD7,PTD5);
    DigitalOut cs(PTD4);
    printf("Working pinmux: %x",PinMux);
}

I would be interested to see the results :)

Thanks for your help,

I am not sure I did what you suggested here is what I have done

#include "mbed.h"
#include "MPU9250.h"

#define PinMux PORTD_PCR4

int main() {

    DigitalOut cs(PTD4);
    SPI spi(PTD6,PTD7,PTD5);



    Serial usbSerial(USBTX, USBRX);
    Timer timer;
    usbSerial.baud(115200);

    MPU9250 imu(spi, cs,PTC3,timer,&usbSerial);
    imu.init();

    printf("Pinmux: %x\n",PinMux);

    while(1)
    {}


}

the result is

AK8963Whoami=  0
ASAX=  0
ASAY=  0
ASAZ=  0
CNTL1=  0
Pinmux: 100


AK8963Whoami= 72
ASAX=177
ASAY=176
ASAZ=166
CNTL1= 18
Pinmux: 100

Is it the test you wanted me to do ???

Hi Jacques,

You almost have it, my code sample was written without checking any datasheets so I didn't realise that each pin has a 32bit Pin Control Register (PCR).

What you actually need to print out is the PCR for each pin involved in the SPI instance. For example

#include "mbed.h"
#include "spi.h"
#define PinMux "Insert PinMux Register Location Here"
int main() {
    SPI spi(PTD6,PTD7,PTD5);
    DigitalOut cs(PTD4);

    printf("Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR5: 0x%8x   MUX Bits: 0x%1x\r\n", PORTD_PCR5, ((PORTD_PCR5>>8)&0x07));
    printf("Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR6: 0x%8x   MUX Bits: 0x%1x\r\n", PORTD_PCR6, ((PORTD_PCR6>>8)&0x07));
    printf("Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR7: 0x%8x   MUX Bits: 0x%1x\r\n", PORTD_PCR7, ((PORTD_PCR7>>8)&0x07));
}

David,

Thanks for your help, Here are the results :

AK8963Whoami= 72
ASAX=177
ASAY=176
ASAZ=166
CNTL1= 18
Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR4: 0x     100   MUX Bits: 0x1
Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR5: 0x     700   MUX Bits: 0x7
Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR6: 0x     700   MUX Bits: 0x7
Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR7: 0x     700   MUX Bits: 0x7


AK8963Whoami=  0
ASAX=  0
ASAY=  0
ASAZ=  0
CNTL1=  0
Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR4: 0x     100   MUX Bits: 0x1
Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR5: 0x     700   MUX Bits: 0x7
Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR6: 0x     700   MUX Bits: 0x7
Pin Control Register PORTD_PCR7: 0x     700   MUX Bits: 0x7

I am afraid it won't help ...

Hmm, I am not going to be of much more help here as I don't have one of those devices so I can't actually test any code. Martin, do you have any thoughts or the time to try and debug this?.
