KL17 Bit SPMF in the SPIx_S field

[fireman]

On behalf of my customer:

At the SPI in the KL17 my customer has found a discrepancy, versus the KL25. I is the Bit SPMF in the SPIx_S field.

- KL17P64M48SF2RM manual page 502

- KL25P80M48SF0RM manual page 666

In both reference manuals is the statement: "To clear the flag, read SPMF when it is set and then write a 1 to it."

In the file MKL17Z4.h is "S" only defined for reading:

/** SPI - Register Layout Typedef */

typedef struct {

__I uint8_t S; /**< SPI Status Register, offset: 0x0 */

At the KL25 file for read and write:

/** SPI - Register Layout Typedef */

typedef struct {

__IO uint8_t C1; /**< SPI control register 1, offset: 0x0 */

__IO uint8_t C2; /**< SPI control register 2, offset: 0x1 */

__IO uint8_t BR; /**< SPI baud rate register, offset: 0x2 */

__IO uint8_t S; /**< SPI status register, offset: 0x3 */

If one does a correction in the KL17 file to__IO, then compiling works, but the file isn't original any longer... :smileysad:

If one keeps the S-Register as only read, one gets during the compilation an error: "assignment of read-only member 'S' SPI0->S |= 0x40;"

My customer thinks the .h-File is wrong and the reference manual is correct.

In both reference manuals is written under SPI status register (SPIx_S): "This register contains read-only status bits. Writes have no meaning or effect."

But in the flowcharts is the statement: READ SPMF WHILE SET TO CLEAR FLAG, THEN WRITE A 1 TO IT

Hi

As the reference manual shows to clear SPMF bit in SPI0_S register need read SPMF when it is set and then write a 1 to it.

Please refer below SPI interrupt code for KL25 product SPI module validation:

if ((SPI0_S & SPI0_S_SPMF_MASK)&&(SPI0_C2 & SPI0_C2_SPMIE_MASK))     //SPI match interrupt

    {

	SPI0_S |= SPI0_S_SPMF_MASK;
	printf("SPI0 match interrupt\n");

}

Wish it helps.

Have a great day,
Ma Hui

Hello Hui Ma,

thanks for your answer! My customer programmed the SPI's similar to your solution.

But that isn't the main point. The manuals and the provided MKL17Z4.h - files do not match!

Where can this documentation and SW discrepancy be addressed to avoid the same pitfalls at other customers?

Best regards,

Marno

Hi

I checked the updated KSDK V2.0 MKL17Z4.h with below SPI register type definition:

/** SPI - Register Layout Typedef */

typedef struct {

  __IO uint8_t S;                                  /**< SPI Status Register, offset: 0x0 */

  __IO uint8_t BR;                                /**< SPI Baud Rate Register, offset: 0x1 */

The updated <MKL17Z4.h> file has fixed the issue.

Please check attached file for the detailed info.

Wish it helps.

Have a great day,
Ma Hui
