Hello Everyone,

I have code for a MSP430FG4618 / RF2500 combo running SimpliciTI that is working very well and I would now like to add an SD card.

I am looking at the guide in SLAA281B (http://focus.ti.com/lit/an/slaa281b/slaa281b.pdf) and am using the associated example code.

I believe that USCI_B is used by the radio so I would like to communicate with the SD card using USCI_A. Apparently I am missing something as I have spent several a long time working on this without much success.

Here is where I am:
I have configured the hardware as follows:

1 (CS) ---------------> P7.0 (UCA0STE), H6.1
2 (DI) ----------------> P7.1 (UCA0SIMO), H6.2
3 (VSS) -------------> GND
4 (VCC) -------------> VCC
5 (SCK) -------------> P7.3 (UCA0CLK), H6.4
6 (CD) ---------------> P7.4, H6.5
7 (DO) ---------------> P7.2(UCA0SOMI), H6.3

And updated the software in hal_MMC_hardware_board.h to reflect those pin assignments and my MCU, the MSP430fg4618, as shown below.

Additionally, I modified SPI_SER_INTF as follows:

#define SPI_SER_INTF SER_INTF_USCIA0 // Interface to MMC

However, when debugging that I recieve many errors to the effect of :

Error[Pe020]: identifier "UTXIFG0" is undefined C:\\MCU\examples\sd_for_ti_SLAA281B\MMC_lib\hal_SPI.c 286

Etc. Looking in msp430xG46x.h I find that they are in fact not defined. As a test, I tried switching the definition above to SER_INTF_USCIB0 and it did compile in that case but of course it didn't actually work because my wiring does not reflect that change.

Again, I want to use USCI_A as I believe the radio is using USCI_B

What am I not seeing? I would really appreciate some help.

Oh, and if I configure:

It will not proceed past mmcReadCardSize();

Hi,

Have you checked that - in case it's bit banged like the code suggests -
the proper SPI mode is used ?
The card will init on its pulse train to switch to SPI, but with the
wrong CLK/DATA phase, it will stay mute and deaf.
Perhaps worth double check ?

Here, maybe this will help. Get the PDF, Application notes link after
'background'.


His code worked right out of the box with DMA. I wrote a much simpler
version for the 149, non DMA from that. As I didn't post it there, I'll
include it below. This is tested code, it worked at the time I was using
it :)

Best, Dan.

That Appnote was written with the MSP430F1xxx series in mind. Those didn't have the USCI modules that all MSPs have now, they had USART. Instead of having UCA0TXBUF, they had U0TXBUF.

I'd crack open the header file they used in that appnote, search through those files, and replace all the old USART commands with USCI commands.

Subject: [msp430] Having trouble with SPI for SD Card

Hello Everyone,

I have code for a MSP430FG4618 / RF2500 combo running SimpliciTI that is working very well and I would now like to add an SD card.

I am looking at the guide in SLAA281B (http://focus.ti.com/lit/an/slaa281b/slaa281b.pdf) and am using the associated example code.

I believe that USCI_B is used by the radio so I would like to communicate with the SD card using USCI_A. Apparently I am missing something as I have spent several a long time working on this without much success.

Here is where I am:
I have configured the hardware as follows:

1 (CS) ---------------> P7.0 (UCA0STE), H6.1
2 (DI) ----------------> P7.1 (UCA0SIMO), H6.2
3 (VSS) -------------> GND
4 (VCC) -------------> VCC
5 (SCK) -------------> P7.3 (UCA0CLK), H6.4
6 (CD) ---------------> P7.4, H6.5
7 (DO) ---------------> P7.2(UCA0SOMI), H6.3

And updated the software in hal_MMC_hardware_board.h to reflect those pin assignments and my MCU, the MSP430fg4618, as shown below.

Additionally, I modified SPI_SER_INTF as follows:

#define SPI_SER_INTF SER_INTF_USCIA0 // Interface to MMC

However, when debugging that I recieve many errors to the effect of :

Error[Pe020]: identifier "UTXIFG0" is undefined C:\\MCU\examples\sd_for_ti_SLAA281B\MMC_lib\hal_SPI.c 286

Etc. Looking in msp430xG46x.h I find that they are in fact not defined. As a test, I tried switching the definition above to SER_INTF_USCIB0 and it did compile in that case but of course it didn't actually work because my wiring does not reflect that change.

Again, I want to use USCI_A as I believe the radio is using USCI_B

What am I not seeing? I would really appreciate some help.

Thank you for the replies! I actually have the Foust note but forgot about the code on the bottom. I am going to look through both of them thoroughly.

One thing that is really bugging me, though, is why the msp430xG46x.h

Does not include definitions for things like U0RXBUF (mentioned in the foust paper). I can see it clear as day on 18-13 in the manual but yet it is not defined in the header file. I am trying to figure out why. Any ideas?

Start a New Thread

Ah okay, that makes sense. I was wondering about that but didn't have the history to know!

I have since made the change and it now compiles fine and runs. However, when running it gets to the initialization:
mmcInit()

Which calls:
CS_HIGH()

Which is:
#define CS_HIGH() while(!halSPITXDONE); MMC_CS_PxOUT |= MMC_CS

Which is:
#define halSPITXDONE (UCA0STAT&UCBUSY) /* Wait for TX to finish */
However, as I watch the registers in IAR in debug mode,
UCA0STAT___SPI = 0x00

Thus:
UCBUSY = 0

However, it will not proceed past CS_HIGH, it just continues to loop there.

At this point I feel like I have done so much searching and reading that I am spinning a little bit. This might be simple but I can't get the clarity I need to figure it out.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

And may I also say that the help here is just tremendous. I really appreciate it.

You're suffering from too many macros IMHO, and it hides the obvious problem.

You have CS_HIGH defined (effectively) as:
While (!(UCA0STAT&UCBUSY));

So you're looping while USCI A0 is not busy.

Steve,

I agree. The example is, in my opinion, WAY overly abstracted. I was planning to reduce it when I got something functional going but didn't want to before hand because it is a TI example and *should* work as written.

I see what you are saying but what I can't figure out is why it was written that way in the first place. That is why I feel like I might have read it somewhere in the past but am not able to think of it now, etc. Remember, this is working directly with a TI example so they wrote it to have that behavior. I am not saying that I am taking that for what it is and not trying to understand it - I am trying very hard to figure out why they did that - but I am having some trouble understanding the behavior that they expect to justify that and, thus, why my device is not behaving that way.

The original flag was U0TCTL & TXEPT.
Translated into English, it will return 0 if the TX buffer is NOT empty.

USCI changed that functionality to busy, so that the closest equivalent function returns 0 if the USCI IS empty.
