Hi,

I am seeing a problem with /CS activating and clock not rising fast enough for the desired SPI mode. External logic analyzer (Saleae) says this is not according to norm:
Clock should be high, when /CS is going "active".



I tried the settings for
BACON LPRE and LEAD but the only result is, that to clock starts cycling later:



I know the signals are looking bad, but that´s nothing i can change without any change in hardware. We already have the padmode on "maximum speed".

What i would need:
Is there any setting i may have missed, to set the clock to high before /CS is actived.

Set the corresponding pins to speed grade 1 via register Pxx.PDRy, then you get the strong edges. The default value for the pins is speed grade 4/weak edge.

As i said, we already set the pad speed to maximum speed.

It seems you expect that the idle level is high for SCLK. Set the CPOL bit in the used ECON register. As I known is the SPI normally edge driven (changing edge and sampling edge) and not level driven.
