TWI hanlder is not called

[HTRRA]

I use Twi for reading data from the lsm sensors. I want to use a twi_handler in which I will set the xfer_done_flag on the true and go off into a sleep mode until the flag is set to a false so that the sensors can successfully read the data. But the problem is that the TWI handler is not called. The problem is exactly in the software, as the example twi_sensor from sdk works.

twi initialization:

void twi_init(void) {
  const nrf_drv_twi_config_t twi_lsm330dlc_config = {
      .scl = SCL_,
      .sda = SDA_,
      .frequency = NRF_TWI_FREQ_400K,
      .interrupt_priority = APP_IRQ_PRIORITY_LOWEST,
      .clear_bus_init = true};

  ret_code_t error = nrf_drv_twi_init(&m_twi, &twi_lsm330dlc_config, twi_handler, NULL);

  APP_ERROR_CHECK(error);

  nrf_drv_twi_enable(&m_twi);
}

TWI handler:

void twi_handler(nrf_drv_twi_evt_t const * p_event, void * p_context)
{
    switch (p_event->type)
    {
        case NRF_DRV_TWI_EVT_DONE:
            if (p_event->xfer_desc.type == NRF_DRV_TWI_XFER_RX)
            {
                data_handler(m_sample);
            }
            m_xfer_done = true;
            break;
        default:
            break;
    }
}

showing the code which makes the twi calls would be helpful. Also are you getting back any error for the call?

[HTRRA]

#define LSM330D_WHO_AM_I_G 0x0F

bool LSM330DLC_init(uint8_t address_g, uint8_t address_a) {
  //whoami_read_gyro
  uint8_t whoami = LSM330D_WHO_AM_I_G;
  uint8_t resultsWhoAmI;

  nrf_drv_twi_tx(&m_twi, address_g, &whoami, 1, true);
  nrf_drv_twi_rx(&m_twi, address_g, &resultsWhoAmI, 1);

  if (resultsWhoAmI != LSM330D_WHOAMI_G_VAL)
    return false;

  return true;
}

When reading from the LSM without using TWI_HANDLER, " NULL" in the nrf_drv_twi_init
function:

ret_code_t ret = nrf_drv_twi_init(&m_twi, &twi_lsm330dlc_config, NULL, NULL);
if(ret != NRF_SUCCESS) SEGGER_RTT_TerminalOut(0, "ERROR");

 no errors are returned. The function returns NRF_SUСCESS.

But when i use TWI_HANDLER, returns NRF_ERROR_BUSY, in second twi call

ret_code_t ret = nrf_drv_twi_init(&m_twi, &twi_lsm330dlc_config, twi_handler, NULL);
if(ret != NRF_SUCCESS) SEGGER_RTT_TerminalOut(0, "ERROR");

my scl and sda were connected to p09 and p010. i have changed them to p07 and p08, and everything is working fine. Do you have any idea why the p09 and p010 pins are caused this error?

[twihtronics]

Pin 9 and 10 are also NFC1 and NFC2. 

You have to disable the NFC functionality in order to use pins 9 & 10.

I have used the same pins in a similar project using the BT832F

It is a setting in UICR.

You can enable/disable with the CONFIG_NFCT_PINS_AS_GPIOS macro. If this is defined then pins 9 and 10 are used as GPIO.

[twihtronics]

same type of thing with all of the multi function pins like P21/Reset. You have to use a macro to allow GPIO usage.

Also please note since this is a UICR setting you will need to erase the entire chip first then program with your updated code in order for the setting to take place.

Thank you very much

one more comment I forgot to add; nfc pins have added capacitance so the frequency at which those pins can operate at will be much lower than normal gpio. depending on your slaves capability for frequency you may not be able to operate i2c over those pins.
