OK, I have a few more hints, crc fails because it doesn't read quite the same data.

diff of OK vs. corrupted (crc failed) data transfered via SPI:

In both cases the first corrupted byte is copy from the last byte and the next one is what the previous should be. So the two bytes are delayed?

Any explanations why this could happen with DMA enabled on ADC?

Code that reads this is just a simple

Code:

<BR> for (i=0; i<len; i++) <BR> buf[i] = spi_txrx(0xff); <BR>

(Oh, but in this case code tag works? Interesting.)

Hello!

This problem is puzzling me, and I'm running out of ideas.

Setup:

1. Accelerometer on ADC1, channels 1, 2, 3, transferred with DMA, sampled at 800 Hz (TIM3 irq handler calls ADC_SoftwareStartConvCmd)

2. SD card with FAT (fatfs) on SPI2, no dma.

Alone either 1 or 2 alone works perfectly.

1 and 2 together produce invalid CRCs on data transferred from SD card.

1 and 2 together, but with ADC DMA disabled produce no such errors.

So it looks like DMA for transfers from ADC does something to interfere with SPI or its buffer? I can't see how can this happen.

Now, I could just not use DMA for ADC, and setup 3 single channel transfers, but:

a) that's a workaround;

b) I'm worried this ''problem'' might bite me later.

Any ideas are very much welcome.

@domen,

Thank you - reviewed the code and could not see the error. Posts such as yours are instructive. (even to ''market leaders'')

Heh, and SOLVED

Code:

u8 spi_txrx(u8 data)

{

SPI2->DR = data;

- while ((SPI2->SR & SPI_I2S_FLAG_TXE) == 0)

+ while ((SPI2->SR & SPI_I2S_FLAG_RXNE) == 0)

;

return SPI2->DR;

}

Silly bug.
