SPI potentiometer don't work (CubeMX & Nucleo103)

Posted on March 06, 2018 at 00:35

Hi,

Maybe i have a stupid question or mistake but i am searching and i can't make it work, so if you can help please.

First i created a new project at CubeMX integrated in Atollic TrueStudio 8.0.

I enable the SPI2 as Full Duplex Master and the Hardware NSS disabled, and the PB1 as output for the Chip Select (CS).

I generated the code without change the configuration at SPI and i add the follow lines (my last of many tries) at the main.c

&sharpdefine CS GPIOB, GPIO_PIN_1

main(void){

       HAL_GPIO_WritePin(CS, GPIO_PIN_SET);

      while(1){

            

for(int i=0;i<128; i++){

HAL_GPIO_WritePin(CS, GPIO_PIN_RESET);

HAL_SPI_Transmit(&hspi2, 0x00, size, 0xFF);

HAL_SPI_Transmit(&hspi2, 0x4, size, 0xFF);

HAL_GPIO_WritePin(CS, GPIO_PIN_SET);

HAL_Delay(10);

}

for(int j=128;j>0; j++){

HAL_GPIO_WritePin(CS, GPIO_PIN_RESET);

HAL_SPI_Transmit(&hspi2, 0x00, size, 0xFF);

HAL_SPI_Transmit(&hspi2, 0x8, size, 0xFF);

HAL_GPIO_WritePin(CS, GPIO_PIN_SET);

HAL_Delay(10);

}

for(int o=0;o<128; o++){

HAL_GPIO_WritePin(CS, GPIO_PIN_RESET);

HAL_SPI_Transmit(&hspi2, 0x01, size, 0xFF);

HAL_SPI_Transmit(&hspi2, 0x20, size, 0xFF);

HAL_GPIO_WritePin(CS, GPIO_PIN_SET);

HAL_Delay(10);

}

for(int k=128;k>0; k++){

HAL_GPIO_WritePin(CS, GPIO_PIN_RESET);

HAL_SPI_Transmit(&hspi2, 0x01, size, 0xFF);

HAL_SPI_Transmit(&hspi2, 0x24, size, 0xFF);

HAL_GPIO_WritePin(CS, GPIO_PIN_SET);

HAL_Delay(10);

}

}

}

Of course, i write here only the code i add. The pre-generated code remains as is (

and more).

At the hardware part now, i used a common MCP4231 with the following connection:

1 -> PB1, 2 ->PB13, 3-> PB15, 4,5,10 -> GND,  6,9-> LED with series resistor 220 Ohm, 7,8,14 -> 5V

I left the MISO float, because there is nothing to receive.

I check the connections many times but nothing happens.

Maybe i missed information, but anything needed i can add after.

Any ideas how it works? Thank you very much!!!
