SPI open drain config on STM32U5G9J-DK2

[math_rock]

Greetings to the community,

After digging around the relevant documentations and the reference manual for the chip family (STM32U5xxx), I couldn't find any relevant info on configuring SPI protocol to be in open drain config. The idea is to power the SPI protocol with 5V using the open drain configuration.

In addition, while storming through the config part of the IDE - only pull up/down alt. configs are available. Since there is one slight mention on the following page of the reference manual (2894/3637, right under figure 838), I wanted to ask if there is a bug in the IDE, or the open drain config could be manually done (eg. within the GPIO init) or for this concrete MCU this config is unavailable on SPI1?

 

Thank you all in advance!

Hello @math_rock ,

Thank you for rising this up. 

You are right ! SPI config should have as GPIO mode values: "Alternate Function Push Pull" and "Alternate Function Open Drain".

This was the subject of the internal ticket ID 148543: [CubeMX-SPI] Alternate function open drain not available for SPI.

Our team is very aware of this issue and working to resolve this.

Hi @Imen.D ,

Thank you for the reply! I understand now, good to know. But now I have a alternative question for a potential workaround. Will it be ok to manually override GPIO configs after code generation to open drain alternative function? Will this cause any potential damage to the board?

Thanks in advance :)
