Device tree configuration for SX1261 on a Insight 4520 SIP based on nRF52832

Hello,

I have a Insight ISP4520 SIp which include a nRF52832 chip and a SX1261 for Lora radio https://www.insightsip.com/products/combo-smart-modules/isp4520
The internal connection of the module are available in this pdf page 13 https://www.insightsip.com/fichiers_insightsip/pdf/ble/ISP4520/isp_lora_DS4520.pdf


I have sucessfully done the nordic academy beginner, BLE and intermediate courses (very interesting) on this chip.

Now I try to make the SX1261 working using this sample https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr/tree/main/samples/drivers/lora/send without success for the moment.

I got this log when running the sample :

Here is the device tree I tried to configure for the Lora0 device :

/ {
    aliases {
        lora0 = &lora0;
    };
};

&spi1 {
    compatible = "nordic,nrf-spi"; 
    status = "okay";
    pinctrl-0 = <&spi1_default>;
    pinctrl-1 = <&spi1_sleep>;
    pinctrl-names = "default", "sleep";
    cs-gpios = <&gpio0 24 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;

    lora0: sx1261@0 {
    	compatible = "semtech,sx1261";
    	reg = <0>;

        spi-max-frequency = <1000000>; 
        dio1-gpios = <&gpio0 11 (GPIO_PUSH_PULL | GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH)>;
        reset-gpios = <&gpio0 19 (GPIO_PUSH_PULL | GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW)>;
        busy-gpios = <&gpio0 27 (GPIO_PUSH_PULL | GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH)>;
        dio2-tx-enable;
        dio3-tcxo-voltage = <7>;
    };
};

And the pinctrl :

&pinctrl {
    spi1_default: spi1_default {
        group1 {
            psels = <NRF_PSEL(SPIM_SCK, 0, 23)>,					 
                    <NRF_PSEL(SPIM_MOSI, 0, 26)>,
                    <NRF_PSEL(SPIM_MISO, 0, 25)>;
        };
    };
    spi1_sleep: spi1_sleep {
        group1 {
            psels = <NRF_PSEL(SPIM_SCK, 0, 23)>,
                    <NRF_PSEL(SPIM_MOSI, 0, 26)>,
                    <NRF_PSEL(SPIM_MISO, 0, 25)>;
            low-power-enable;
        };
    };
};

What is wrong with my device tree configuration ? And why I can use the the SPI0 ?

Many thanks by adavance and feel free to ask more details if needed.

  • Sorry for forgtotting the NCS version : I'm using the latest v2.8.0

    Here is a screenshot of my VS code window where you can see it is v2.8.0 :

    The SIP manufacturer (Insight) has a Github repo with some samples but they use the previous NCS version (v1.x.x) without using devicetree. 
    Please have a look to their repo here : https://github.com/insightsip/ISP4520-examples

    I also asked the manufacturer (french company) if they have the devicetree configuration for their SIP because they are the most placed people to write it due to the fact they are the deisgners of the SIP.

    I'm gonna have a look to the overlay you mentionned in your post.

    Thanks for your help !
