SPI skeleton project for FDK

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320C5515, SPRC133

I want to interface FPC1011 sensor to FDK fingerprint development kit. So I need a skeleton (or template) project for SPI connection and UART commands. Can you help me?

  • Do you have problem to connect the sensor to FDK now?

    After the sensor connected to FDK and works, then on the FDK side is a completed example or template.

  • No I have no problem to connect the FDK. I will use FPC1011F instead of ATW310 sensor. They are pin compatible sensors. So I can connect FPC1011F directly to FDK. But there is no source code for ATW310 coming with FDK kit unfortunately. That's why I have to use FPC1011F (at least I know how to control this sensor using SPI). Bu I need a template project for FDK also I need source code example how to use SPI and UART modules of TMS320C5515. Thanks.

  • There are some very good examples in CSL(Chip Support Library) of C5000. In fact, we strong recommend using CSL for development. This is will save you a lot of time.

    First download and install CSL. you can download the CSL from this link:

    http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/sprc133.html

    For UART, take a look at the example-2 of UART. it will show you how to use UART of C55xx and how to use UART to communicate to PC

    For SPI, there is an example of SPI too. it will show you how to setup the SPI port.

  • Thanks, I am now testing with CSL. I really need luck. I worked with PIC18XX, Atmel AVR and NXP Arm7 microcontrollers. But DSP processors seem harder than those.

  • Hello Mehmet,

    I have just created a google group to discuss questions about this FDK, please join us.
