STM32CubeMX setting for STM32F7 SPI

Hi,

I used to work on STM32F4 and now are evaluating STM32F7. When I tried to create a project with STM32F769NI with SPI. I found that I can't set the Prescaler to 2 (APB2 = 108Mhz) which will result the SPI6 to 54Mhz.The error message is ''With this Prescaler value and APB2 Clock Frequency (108.0 MHz), Baud Rate is more than : 50.0 MBit/s. But the datasheet clear said it can go up to 54MHz. So..The program is wrong, datasheet is wrong or I am wrong? (SPI 6, master mode with full duplex). I also set the voltage to 3.3. Regards,TYY #stm32f7-spi

Hi,

Could you precise which version of CubeMx are you using ?Regards

Hi TONYY,

Could you please precise which CubeMX version are you using?If you are using an old version, I recommend you to use the latest: 4.16.1-Syrine-

I believe I am at 4.1, I updated it a few days ago.

Hi TONYY,

Thank you for your feedback. The issue has been reported internally.-Syrine-

Original issue has been fixed in 4.18 release: 'With SPI on STM32F769NI, set the Prescaler to 2 (APB2 = 108Mhz), set the voltage range to 3.3 V. With this Prescaler value and APB2 Clock Frequency (108.0 MHz), maximum Baud Rate is 50.0 MBit/s when we should be able to reach SPI6 at 54Mhz'.

Indeed:

 - The max value depends on voltage range. So 54MHz, should be proposed if application is running 3.3V typical. - At low voltage range, the delay on the pad is longer and limits the max frequency.
