IWR1443: mmwave sdk 1.0: Test_spiSlaveWithPC in SPI test

Part Number: IWR1443


Hi,

My customer found Test_spiSlaveWithPC() in C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_01_00_00_05\packages\ti\drivers\spi\test\common\test_common.c. It seems that the test code is to commuicate with PC by SPI (through FTDI).

Is there any PC test code to work with this test mode?

What's the HW for this test? EVM+Devpack then connect the two USB cables to PC?

  • Hi Chris,

    >Is there any PC test code to work with this test mode?

    To my knowledge, there is no PC code provided in the mmWave SDK that performs SPI services and runs on a PC. I will send you the name of the SPI driver author by email.


    >What's the HW for this test? EVM+Devpack then connect the two USB cables to PC?

    Yes, the SPI pins connect to both the 60-pin header and to the 20-pin Launchpad connectors. I use the 20-pin Launchpad connector to use SPI with a mated MSP432. But the 60-pin header would connect to the Dev Pack, and from there, the USB to PC.
  • HI Chris,

    Anything else on this issue? If not, let's close it.

    thanks, dave
