 The SPI pack&amp;#39;s maxsize is 255?

&lt;p&gt;Which device are you using? The maximum of 255 bytes is a HW limitation in the nRF52 SPIM peripheral, where the&amp;nbsp;RXD.MAXCNT,&amp;nbsp;RXD.AMOUNT, TXD.MAXCNT and TXD.AMOUNT all are 8 bit fields. There is no way to increase the transaction size in that case, but you can split up longer transactions if needed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(There is no such limitation in the SPI peripheral (no DMA), but the unified driver still uses uint8_t for length, so you cannot achieve longer transactions without modifying the driver.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
