SPDR not receiving data

Aki Virtanen

Hi,

IÂ'm trying to use SPI in AT89S8252. Problem is that I canÂ't write to SPDR. SPDR doesnÂ't receive data but still software sets SPIF flag. Also I can write the 00h value of the SPDR to ie. R2.

code:

MOSI    EQU             P1.5
MISO    EQU             P1.6
SCK     EQU             P1.7
SS      EQU             P1.4

MOV P1,#0

MOV 0D5h,#00111000b  /* Sets DORD, MSTR, CPOL bits */
MOV 0D5h,#01111000b  /* Sets SPE bit */

MOV R1,#255

MOV 086h,R1       /* send an example data to SPDR*/

        NOP
        NOP             /*SPIF bit sets*/
        NOP
        NOP
        NOP
        NOP
        NOP

Is this a software bug or me, as a beginner, being incompetent!?

Please help me out!

Regards
Aki

    In software I canÂ't write anything to SPDR. IÂ've initialized SPI registers as said in manual. With and without slave select. I DonÂ't know what is happening because I canÂ't write SPDR(according to peripherals ->SPI-window) but software sets SPIF after MOV SPDR,#255 order. I can read the dafault value(00h) from SPDR.IÂ'm assuming software is flawless so I havenÂ't seen any sense loading my code to 8252 and testing actual device in practice.

    You are running in the simulator? If you run in the simulator, then you need to write a simulation script that handles the SPI interface and picks up the transmitted byte and sends back another byte.

    Without a simulation script, Keil can not simulate any SPI.

    I don't know how it is with the SPI simulation, but for UART simulation, Keil normally has a flag if the simulation should run in simulated time - delay based on baudrate - or performing instant transfers. Maybe Keil performs instant transfers for the SPI interface.
