SPI Commands

The SPI communication protocol is supported on the standard SPI pin set specified for your MCU.

NOTE: Examples for SPI read and write may be found here:

For telemetrix: spi_mpu9250.py

For telemetrix-aio: spi_mpu9250.py

Read Commands

spi_read_blocking

def spi_read_blocking(self, register_selection, number_of_bytes_to_read,
                      call_back=None):
    """
    Read the specified number of bytes from the specified SPI port and
    call the callback function with the reported data.

    :param register_selection: Register to be selected for read.

    :param number_of_bytes_to_read: Number of bytes to read

    :param call_back: Required callback function to report spi data as a
               result of read command


    callback returns a data list:
    [SPI_READ_REPORT, count of data bytes read, data bytes, time-stamp]

    SPI_READ_REPORT = 13

    """

Write Commands

spi_write_blocking

def spi_write_blocking(self, bytes_to_write):
    """
    Write a list of bytes to the SPI device.

    :param bytes_to_write: A list of bytes to write. This must
                            be in the form of a list.

    """

Control And Operational Commands

spi_cs_control

def spi_cs_control(self, chip_select_pin, select):
    """
    Control an SPI chip select line
    :param chip_select_pin: pin connected to CS

    :param select: 0=select, 1=deselect
    """

spi_set_format

def spi_set_format(self, clock_divisor, bit_order, data_mode):
    """
    Configure how the SPI serializes and de-serializes data on the wire.

    See Arduino SPI reference materials for details.

    :param clock_divisor:

                        LSBFIRST = 0

                        MSBFIRST = 1 (default)

    :param data_mode:
