| Anyone used the SPI DMA with 18F26J11 (or similar)? |

I recently started using the PIC18F26J11 parts in many of my small projects. It is a great chip and is very flexible.
I noticed it has a DMA associated with the SPI port. This sounds like it would be useful in getting data blocks into and out of an SD card attached as an SPI peripheral.
Has anyone used this feature with this (or similar) chips? If so, would you mind sharing code for setting it up?
It doesn't appear the V4.114 PCWHD compiler has any functions for setting this feature up.
Thanks. |

I've used the 26/46j11 in a few things -- it's a nice chip.
On SPI DMA, I have not. I was just looking at it again last night.
Considering that 1024bytes is all it will xfer at a time and that's 2 SD sectors... that could be handy... Yes it could....

I use the SPI DMA on the 18F46J50 for reading and writing to SD card. It works very well. Below are my DMA routines but you will have to modify them to suit your application.
Not many comments I am afraid

enable_interrupts(INT_SSP2);
DMAEN = true; // Start DMA transfer
}

before calling these routines I get the SD card ready for transfer by sending the relevant command. These routines will then set the DMA to read/write 512 bytes and then interrupt to signal that it has finished.
Hopw it helps. |
