spi flowkit

Hi

I am using my flow kit 2 to analyse some SPI signals using megga 2560

I have set the slowest clock speed i can currently select on the megga 2560 ie /64

But currently do miss a few clock pulses even if i set the clock speed to the FOSC /64 on the megga

Is there any way i can reduce the SPI clock speed still further initially for my tests to allow me to continue utilise the flow kit 2

Note i can monitor the actual clock pulses and they are fine using an external logic analyser ie non missed

Best Regards
David

Hi David,

Options might be to move to a software SPI channel or to change the crystal on the arduino.

I personally use something like this and for the price it does very well.

Hi Ben

Don’t want to change crystal as potential problems likely with booth loader and other things

May try an 8 meg 3.3v arduino

But really wanted a small mod to the software SPI clock freq


Already use the analyser you mention and that’s fine for just monitoring the lines
