RE: Why does MOSI stay high afther sending last byte with a value higher than Decimal 127. Binear (0111 1111)

This may not work, but it is worth a quick try. When the buffer Tx stream is exhausted (after 5th byte in this case) the output switches to the Tx idle stream defined by ORC. If Tx length is the same or greater than Rx length then this idle byte never actually gets sent, but it may be preloaded and therefore influence the end state of MOSI..

Change this value from 0xFF to 0x7F or 0x00 to test.

// <o> NRFX_SPIS_DEFAULT_ORC - SPIS default ORC character  <0-255> 
#ifndef NRFX_SPIS_DEFAULT_ORC
#define NRFX_SPIS_DEFAULT_ORC 0 //255
#endif

Hi,

Not sure if there's a way to prevent this. Is this violating the SPI spec? As far as I can see MOSI should be ignored by the slave when CS is not asserted. Please correct me if you find any other info, and I will run this through the HW designers.
