Problem with SPI...

Posted: Sat Feb 24, 2018 8:59 pm

Hi, I'm trying to use MFCRC522 whith this code: https://github.com/blmhemu/ESP32-MFRC522.
It doesn't work, but after a lot of tests without satisfaction, I've tried to analyze the signal with the osccilloscope.
The result is that the signals are flat in all SPI configured pins.
So, I've wired the MFRC522 to Arduino and I've tested it with another library definitely working.
On arduino, the oscilloscope shows me all signals working (square wave).
I don't understand why.
Looking another software writed for esp-idf that use SPI, all the APIs call seems correct.
Unfortunately, I haven't another SPI peripheral (not MFRC522) to make test.
There is any method to verify if SPI work fine?
Thanks a lot.

Best regards.

Stefano

Unfortunately because code exists on Github doesn't necessarily mean that it is currently working or fully tested. You might want to contact the author of that code and ask for clarification of its state.

Yes, I know, but I asked it because if on Arduino I execute only

Code: Select all

	SPI.begin();			// Init SPI bus
	mfrc522.PCD_Init();		// Init MFRC522
I already see the signal in MISO pin.

On ESP32 the signal is always flat and then I tought that can be a wrong initialization of SPI bus and not a problem into the code.

After 3 days of tests, I haven't solved.
The latest test that I made is to write a little sketch for arduino reduced to minimum as possible and when I've seen that it work on arduino, I'had translate it for esp-idf.

The sketch uploaded to arduino returns version 0x12 and the esp-idf sketch return always 0x0.
Maybe I did something wrong in the esp-idf version?

What do you think?

Thanks.

It's pretty hard to diagnose this problem with only 'it doesn't receive the right number' as the symptom... have you tried connecting a logic analyzer or 'scope to the wires and seeing if you can diagnose the problem from there? If so, it may be helpful to post your findings with that as well.

Hi, I tried to connect an Arduino configured to slave and data sent from esp is received.
