I am new to mcuXpresso, and using an lpc55s69 demo board.  I am trying to configure the high speed spi and connect to some headers that are on the demo board.  I ran the config pins tool and updated the project.  It generates the following in BOARD_InitBootPins(void).  

/* clang-format off */

And as you can see it generates what I think are the correct instructions.  When I run the project and look at the SPI assigned pins on the board, they all appear to be high impedance inputs.  This was working at one point but now it isn't.  Seems like a simple problem to resolve but I have spent hours on this with no results.  Can someone tell me what is wrong??

Adding the function call BOARD_InitPins() is redundant because it is called from BOARD_InitBootPins().  I used the suggested example code as a model for the code I am using.  The API for writing to the spi is contained in another section of the project.  I have verified their are no signal outputs and the pins remain as default inputs.  One way to easily test this is to connect a scope to any of the SPI output pins and touch it with your finger.  If its still a default input pin it will oscillate slowly.  I have tried a second demo board with no improvement. I added a snippet of the SPI write API I am using at the bottom of the attached demo... .c file for easy verification.  Is the order of the initialization important??  I tried deleting all the other code in systemInit() leaving just the BOARD_InitBoot... files with no effect on my problem.

Turns out I had a connection issue on the board. Thanks for your help and suggestions.

Now I see that calling  BOARD_InitPins() from my application is redundant because it is called from  BOARD_InitBootPins which was already included in my application.  I initially had used your recommended example as a model for my code.   The API to transfer data is in another part of the code but  I have verified there are no outputs from the spi pins.  An easy way to confirm if the pin configuration is updated is to connect a scope to any of the spi outputs and touch it with your finger.  If the default configuration is still an input pin the scope waveform will oscillate because of the high impedance.  Also the SSEL pin (chip select) remains low and in a high impedance state. I added a snippet of the API to the attached .c file for testing.  Also note that I have tried a second demo board with no resolution of this problem.

Hi,

I have checked the LPC55S69_Project_LCD_Demo.c, but I do not see the code to initialize the high speed SPI pins configuration in the file.

Pls refer to the following code for the hs-spi pin configuration.

Hope it is helpful

Thanks for the quick response... If this is what you meant, I added a call to BOARD_InitPins(); (line 137 of attached revised code) and also attached a copy of my pin_mux.c which has similar code to yours but still no effect.

Hi,

I have checked your code LCD_Demo.c, but you do not call the api function to transfer any data, in detail, you do not write SPI->FIFOWR register, so it is impossible to see any waveform from SCK or MOSI in master mode.

Pls load the spi example and have a try. You can delete the DMA code and use only interrupt mode by changing the example

Hope it can help you
