Control AMIS-30543 with STM32F030R8
I'm setting up a MCU to control a stepper motor. I'm aiming to control the stepper motor driver (AMIS-30543) over SPI. My current goal is to get the driver to respond to my SPI commands so I know it's correctly receiving my commands. The driver responds, but only ever with 0xFF. Once earlier today I got it to respond with 0x02 (the hexadecimal I should receive), but it hasn't repeated since then. So where I need help is figuring out why its behaving like this and how to get the driver to respond correctly.
I'm using Keil uVision 5. Writing in C as a beginner of beginners.
The pins are connected according to the following description.
STM AMIS
3.3v IOREF
GND GND
PB3 NXT
PB5 DIR
PA7 DO
PA6 DI
PA5 CLK
PA4 CS
AMIS 9v Battery
VMOT + terminal (also tried with STM 5V)
GND - terminal (also tried with STM GND)
AMIS 26M024B2B
MXP + coil 1
MXN - coil 1
MYP + coil 2
MYN - coil 2Relevant segments of my code is below.
