nrf5340 spi

[saeed mahvis]

Hello Sirs

I want to use the SPI hardware of nrf5340 in my custom board. I want to communicate with ADXL362 which is a very low power movement

sensor. Is there any similar application to guide me through? I have designed the device tree proper for my application by editing overlay

file. Where can I find the useful commands of reading and writing to SPI peripheral and setting its clock frequency. Thank you in advance for

your support.

Best regards

Hi,

This sample here have support for ADXL362

https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/v3.2.99-ncs1/samples/sensor/accel_polling/src/main.c

Just make sure you have an alias for it in the devicetree.

        aliases {
                accel0 = &adxl362;
	};

Hi Sigurd

There is no accel0 = &adxl362 in my devicetree. How can I add this to the devicetree file.

Either add it to your board dts file, or use an .overlay file.

As a reference, it's added in the board files for the Thingy:53 here: https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/main/boards/arm/thingy53_nrf5340/thingy53_nrf5340_common.dts#L119

Hi

There is a sample program in ncs/v1.8.0/zephyr/samples/sensor/adx362. I am using this sample

program by adding accl0=&adxl362 in its devicetree file. But while compiling this error is issued:

'DT_N_INST_0_adi_adxl362_P_label' undeclared (first use in this function) .

How can I solve this problem.

Could be that you have not added the adxl dts node to a SPI node. You can see how it's done here:

https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/main/boards/arm/thingy53_nrf5340/thingy53_nrf5340_common.dts#L192

Here is the version of the file used in NCS 1.8.0:

https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/v2.7.0-ncs1/boards/arm/thingy53_nrf5340/thingy53_nrf5340_common.dts#L157

Hi

Thank you very much. It did work. But please do not close this ticket until I can get sensor data

by NRF completely.
