K65 DSPI_EDMA driver

[ETCTim]

Hello,

I am attempting to use the DMA SPI driver on a K65 with SDK 2.0.

I want to send 40K of data out the SPI to update a LCD screen.

I have successfully done this on a K70 with PE, and also a KL28 with SDK 2.0.

The fsl_dspi_edma driver seems to have an upper limit of 512 bytes per transfer as seen here...

/* this limits the amount of data we can transfer due to the linked channel.
* The max bytes is 511 if 8-bit/frame or 1022 if 16-bit/frame
*/
if (handle->bitsPerFrame > 8)
{
if (transfer->dataSize > 1022)
{
return kStatus_DSPI_OutOfRange;
}
}
else
{
if (transfer->dataSize > 511)
{
return kStatus_DSPI_OutOfRange;
}
}

It is unclear to me why there is a limit. How can I work around this?

Thanks.

Tim

Hi, 

any news about this? I stumbled upon the same lines of code working with the freedom k22 evalboard. Commenting the lines and sending bigger chunks will not work here.

Hi,

As you know that the K66 has the same eDMA as K70, I do not know the background of the bytes limit, I think you can comment the code for byte count limit checking.

Hope it can help you.
