propeller c3 spi problem

ggg558877

Hi everyone
I have some problem about c3 spi
now i want to use c3 spi A/D to get the data and write into SD card
if I separately use them it ok
but when i use together the A/D value always 0
how can i use A/D and SD card together?
thanks

The SD driver takes exclusive ownership of the SPI select h/w. Once it has control no other driver is able to reset the CS counter. IOW you'd need a more friendly SD driver.

so i can't get the A/D value then write into SD card?

Not with the drivers you're using right now. The way SPI selection is implemented means that all involved drivers have to share in some way.

I have try to use fsrwFemto and sdspiFemto but it dosen't work
I don't know how to solve my problem
are there someone had used propeller c3 both A/D and SD card?

If the driver is completely stopped and started again; So the code would collect data for some time and then
from time to time the SD-Card-driver is started to write the data and then stopped again? Would that work?
Surely the C3 has everything "on board" but how about connecting an external SD-Card-socket to some pins to keep the SD-card
away from the SPI-bus?

Hi StefanL38
I try to completely stopped and started the driver but in the sd card only show one value
because if i re-start the SD-Card-driver the value before will clear

The SD card and ADC drivers need to be rewritten or modified significantly to allow them to share the SPI selection circuitry. The closest I've seen to a pair of drivers that work properly is in the C3 version of Sphinx and the version of FemtoBasic that uses those drivers. Even then, there were some problems and I didn't have time to completely solve them. In modifying the drivers, I was trying to make it possible to use all of the SPI devices, at least from the same cog. If you had to use more than one cog, you had to add your own lock / semaphore around calls to the drivers.

Make sure you close the file before stopping the SD card driver.
