I am using the Mcbsp as an SPI master in clock stop mode. I set up the peripheral as described by the Example_2833xMcBSP_SPI_DLB.c just not in loopback and 8 bit data. For some reason the code i inherited is set up to use the gpio as a chip select but it is only connected to a single device so I can set it active low the whole time.
The problem is that I see clock signals at the beginning and end of my sequence that are less than 8. I included scope plots for review. Thanks
