SPI Register Read

Read data from SPI slave device register

• Library:

• Simulink Support Package for Raspberry Pi Hardware / Communication

• 

Description

The SPI Register Read block initiates an SPI read operation from an SPI slave register. You can specify the data type and data length to get data from the slave registers. To open the pin map of the Raspberry Pi board, click the View pin map button.

Ports

Output

Port_1 — Output port to read data

[Nx1] array

This port is the output port to read data from an SPI slave register.

Data Types: single | double | int8 | int16 | int32 | uint8 | uint16 | uint32

Parameters

Board — Specific board used for SPI communication

Pi 2 Model B (default) | Model B Rev1 | Model B Rev2 | Model B+ | Pi 3 Model B

Select the specific board that you are using. Changing the board updates the pin choices that you get.

Slave select pin — Pin connected to the SPI slave device

SPI0_CE0 (default) | SPI0_CE1

Select the pin number on the Raspberry Pi board to which the SPI slave device is connected.

Mode (Clock polarity and phase) — Mode of SPI communication

0 (default) | 1 | 2 | 3

Select the mode of SPI communication.

Register address — Register address to read the data

0 (default) | uint8 array

Enter the SPI slave register address to read the data.

Output data type — Data type for output

int8 (default) | uint8 | int16 | uint16 | int32 | uint32 | single | double

Select the data type for SPI communication.

Output data length — Data length for SPI communication

1 (default) | scalar

Enter the output data length of the selected data type to read from the SPI slave register.

Sample time — Interval at which block reads data from SPI slave device

0.1 (default) | -1 | any nonnegative value

Specify how often this block reads the data from the SPI slave device, in seconds. When you set this parameter to -1, Simulink^® determines the best sample time for the block based on the block context within the model.
