Arduino - Second SPI port for ESP32 S3

Postby StuartsProjects » Sat Oct 22, 2022 2:42 pm

I have an ESP32 S3 Wroom 1 Dev Module and the 2.0.5 core whuch has support for the S3.

I can run a SPI device on the standard, default SPI port which you use with SPI.begin()

However, I am trying to get the second SPI port running (pins GPIO35, GPIO36, GPIO37) which the code for the example 'SPI_Multiple_Buses.ino' implies with these lines that it supports the S3;

Code: Select all

#if CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ESP32S2 || CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ESP32S3
#define VSPI FSPI
#endif  
But this produces a repeating error;

E (2115) gpio: gpio_set_level(226): GPIO output gpio_num error

The standard SPI port is working, SCK is active etc, but the second is not.

What is the correct naming or code for the second SPI avaialble SPI port on the S3.

Here is the 'SPI_Multiple_Buses.ino' code;

Code: Select all

/* The ESP32 has four SPi buses, however as of right now only two of
 * them are available to use, HSPI and VSPI. Simply using the SPI API 
 * as illustrated in Arduino examples will use VSPI, leaving HSPI unused.
 * 
 * However if we simply intialise two instance of the SPI class for both
 * of these buses both can be used. However when just using these the Arduino
 * way only will actually be outputting at a time.
 * 
 * Logic analyser capture is in the same folder as this example as
 * "multiple_bus_output.png"
