Hello all, I'm need access the ADS1256 spi analog/digital converter ( http://focus.ti.com/docs/prod/folders/print/ads1256.html ) from a Linux 2.6.32-2 kernel running on a micro2440 friendlyARM board. I'm using the spidev module to do the access in user space. I'm using the SPI1 processor SPI channel because the SPI0 processor pinout was not delivered from core board, but I believe this is not a problem, the system configuration is the same from SPI0 ? When I try to read anything from A/D I can only read random data, for example if I do a command to read the 11 registers values I have only random data, some values on A/D answer it seems with the correct values but in the wrong registers position. The procedure is write() in user space with the command and after read() the A/D response. Searching the web I noticed that several people has the same problem and it is related with the rigid timing between the last bit from MOSI (the command from CPU) and the first bit from MISO (answer from A/D), this time is always 50*clock_period (8us when using 6MHz clock), and I believe that has some problem with the S3C2440 spi driver because when occurs the spi interrupt the irq handler cannot read the correct value from spi controller (I don't know why), maybe this is because this interrupt handler was called too late, if this is the problem there any way to speed up this irq handler ? Someone can identify from datasheet information the SPI mode that this ads1255/56 works ? Someone experienced some similar problem and there's some way to read data correctly for this chip ? Use spidev is the best choose to do access to this chip ? Thanks in advance Flavio Alberto Lopes Soares
