NRF24L01P and SPI communication not working correctly
Hey,
I'm using an nrf24l01p on NCS36510 baseboard from onsemiconductor with iot idk. ( baseboard rev 3.0 )
I'm using this mbed library : https://os.mbed.com/cookbook/nRF24L01-wireless-transceiver with the following code :
Main
/* ============================================================================ Name : main.cpp Author : Alexandre BLOT Version : Copyright : Blot Copyright Description : Exe source file Required: Connect Power through USB/External supply 12v ___________ | IDK | |___________| ============================================================================ */ #include "mbed.h" #include "nRF24L01P.h" #define _NRF24L01P_REG_STATUS 0x07 Serial pc(USBTX, USBRX); // tx, rx nRF24L01P my_nrf24l01p(D4, D3, D2, D10, D14, D15); // mosi, miso, sck, csn, ce, irq int main() { // The nRF24L01+ supports transfers from 1 to 32 bytes, but Sparkfun's // "Nordic Serial Interface Board" (http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9019) // only handles 4 byte transfers in the ATMega code. #define TRANSFER_SIZE 8 char txData[TRANSFER_SIZE], rxData[TRANSFER_SIZE]; int txDataCnt = 0; int rxDataCnt = 0; my_nrf24l01p.powerUp(); my_nrf24l01p.setTxAddress(); // Display the (default) setup of the nRF24L01+ chip pc.printf( "nRF24L01+ Frequency : %d MHz\r\n", my_nrf24l01p.getRfFrequency() ); pc.printf( "nRF24L01+ Output power : %d dBm\r\n", my_nrf24l01p.getRfOutputPower() ); pc.printf( "nRF24L01+ Data Rate : %d kbps\r\n", my_nrf24l01p.getAirDataRate() ); pc.printf( "nRF24L01+ TX Address : 0x%010llX\r\n", my_nrf24l01p.getTxAddress() ); pc.printf( "nRF24L01+ RX Address : 0x%010llX\r\n", my_nrf24l01p.getRxAddress() ); pc.printf( "Type keys to test transfers:\r\n (transfers are grouped into %d characters)\r\n", TRANSFER_SIZE ); my_nrf24l01p.setTransferSize( TRANSFER_SIZE ); my_nrf24l01p.setReceiveMode(); my_nrf24l01p.enable(); while (1) { // If we've received anything over the host serial link... if ( pc.readable() ) { // ...add it to the transmit buffer txData[txDataCnt++] = pc.getc(); // If the transmit buffer is full if ( txDataCnt >= sizeof( txData ) ) { // Send the transmitbuffer via the nRF24L01+ my_nrf24l01p.write( NRF24L01P_PIPE_P0, txData, txDataCnt ); txDataCnt = 0; } // Toggle LED1 (to help debug Host -> nRF24L01+ communication) pc.printf("Transmitted\n"); } // If we've received anything in the nRF24L01+... if ( my_nrf24l01p.readable() ) { // ...read the data into the receive buffer rxDataCnt = my_nrf24l01p.read( NRF24L01P_PIPE_P0, rxData, sizeof( rxData ) ); // Display the receive buffer contents via the host serial link for ( int i = 0; rxDataCnt > 0; rxDataCnt--, i++ ) { pc.putc( rxData[i] ); } // Toggle LED2 (to help debug nRF24L01+ -> Host communication) pc.printf("Received"); } } }
On the console i should be getting this : nRF24L01+ Frequency : 2402 MHz nRF24L01+ Output Power: 0 dBm nRF24L01+ Data Rate: 1000 kbps nRF24L01+ TX Address: 0xE7E7E7E7E7 nRF24L01+ RX Address: 0xE7E7E7E7E7
but instead i'm getting this :
nRF24L01+ Frequency : 2415 MHz nRF24L01+ Output power : 0 dBm nRF24L01+ Data Rate : 2000 kbps nRF24L01+ TX Address : 0x000000000lX nRF24L01+ RX Address : 0x000000000lX
I tried different pins and at this point i'm quite stuck, i also tried to debug it with a scope and put some pull up resistors
Here are the schematics of my board

I don't know if someone experienced the same problem or can help me but it would be very kind
If you need it i can show you how i connected my wires from the board to the module
