SPI DMA is not workng at higher SPI baud rates

Hi,

My NUCLEO-H563ZI application uses SPI with DMA. The SPI transactions are not working at clock/2 clock/4 and clock/8 rates, clock being 250 Mhz. Is there any clock frequency restriction when SPI is used with DMA?

Give context! Explain your setup! What means "not working?  What is your setup?

This is my SPI Configuration.

Upto a clk freq of SPI_BAUDRATEPRESCALER_16 (250/16 = 15.625 Mhz), my SPI transactions work i.e the 10 bytes I send from Master are coming up on the MOSI line. And my slave also behaves correctly.

However, for frequencies above that (say SPI_BAUDRATEPRESCALER_8), the clock pin does not show any pulses!!

You do not show your GPIO Setup. Is GPIO set for appropriate speed? How is your wiring? On-Board, on Board with jumper wires or bord-tp board with some cable or jumper wires? Did you look at the signal with a fast scope? 30 Mhz signals need some thoughts and care!
