Tinkering TI MSP430F5529

USCI – SPI – I2C Example 3

Two examples SPI-I2C would have been enough but went for this final third one because sometimes it is difficult for grasping I2C/SPI operations with driverlib alone. This is especially the case when people are migrating from low-end or mid-range MSP430s that have no driverlib support and this is what happened with me at the beginning. It was then I decided what if I can use the good old I2C and SPI libraries that TI supplied for their low and mid-range devices. This example demonstrates exactly that. Here both the SPI and I2C hardware of MSP430F5529 were tested against the older libraries. These libraries do not apply the use of driverlib APIs except for pin declarations. I would also like readers to check my past SPI and I2C tutorials on MSP430G2xxx series for better reference and understanding. Here’s the link: http://embedded-lab.com/blog/more-on-ti-msp430s for those tutorials.

Note that unlike MSP430G2xxx devices, MSP430F5529 doesn’t have any USI hardware and instead of it we will have to stick to USCI modules – USCI_B modules for I2C and USCI_A or USCI_B modules for SPI communications.

If still things are still messy with USCI, we can use software-based I2C/SPI libraries but those won’t perform like the hardware-based USCI ones. In terms of communication speed, software-based I2C/SPI are slow and in terms of coding, software-based solutions are resource-consuming. Thus, it is best to learn and use USCI modules. 

Here in this demo, an I2C-based BH1750 light sensor is read and its readings are displayed on a SPI-based Nokia GLCD (PCD8544).

Hardware Setup

Explanation

The USCI libraries for SPI and I2C here are mostly coded at raw level and without much driverlib help. These are based on my past tutorials. I actually copied from those tutorial examples and made some minor changes. These libraries are already proven and so there is nothing new here. Basically, this USCI example is mere a proof-of-concept of the fact that we can use USCI without driverlib.

We start by declaring I/O pins as per device’s pin mapping. Let’s see the I2C library first.

#include<msp430.h>  #include "driverlib.h" #define USCI_B0_I2C_port                                  GPIO_PORT_P3 #define USCI_B0_I2C_SDA_pin                               GPIO_PIN0 #define USCI_B0_I2C_SCL_pin                               GPIO_PIN1 #define USCI_B1_I2C_port                                  GPIO_PORT_P4 #define USCI_B1_I2C_SDA_pin                               GPIO_PIN1 #define USCI_B1_I2C_SCL_pin                               GPIO_PIN2

GPIOs to be used need to set for alternative roles.

GPIO_setAsPeripheralModuleFunctionOutputPin(USCI_B0_I2C_port, 
                                            (USCI_B0_I2C_SDA_pin 
                                            | USCI_B0_I2C_SCL_pin));

The rest of the code is same as like the ones in the HW_I2C files of my past tutorial.

The demo here uses USCI B0 I2C module to operate a BH1750 light sensor as shown below:

void BH1750_write(unsigned char cmd)
{  
    I2C_USCI_B0_write_byte(BH1750_addr, cmd);
}

unsigned int BH1750_read_word(void)
{                      
  unsigned long value = 0x0000;
  unsigned char bytes[2] = {0x00, 0x00};

  I2C_USCI_B0_read_word(0x11, bytes, 2);

  value = ((bytes[1] << 8) | bytes[0]);  

  return value;
} 

The same goes for the USCI SPI library.

#include<msp430.h>  #include "driverlib.h" #define USCI_A0_MOSI_port                   GPIO_PORT_P3 #define USCI_A0_MISO_port                   GPIO_PORT_P3 #define USCI_A0_CLK_port                    GPIO_PORT_P2 #define USCI_A0_MOSI_pin                    GPIO_PIN3 #define USCI_A0_MISO_pin                    GPIO_PIN4 #define USCI_A0_CLK_pin                     GPIO_PIN7 #define USCI_A1_MOSI_port                   GPIO_PORT_P4 #define USCI_A1_MISO_port                   GPIO_PORT_P4 #define USCI_A1_CLK_port                    GPIO_PORT_P4 #define USCI_A1_MOSI_pin                    GPIO_PIN4 #define USCI_A1_MISO_pin                    GPIO_PIN5 #define USCI_A1_CLK_pin                     GPIO_PIN0 #define USCI_B0_MOSI_port                   GPIO_PORT_P3 #define USCI_B0_MISO_port                   GPIO_PORT_P3 #define USCI_B0_CLK_port                    GPIO_PORT_P3 #define USCI_B0_MOSI_pin                    GPIO_PIN0 #define USCI_B0_MISO_pin                    GPIO_PIN1 #define USCI_B0_CLK_pin                     GPIO_PIN2 #define USCI_B1_MOSI_port                   GPIO_PORT_P4 #define USCI_B1_MISO_port                   GPIO_PORT_P4 #define USCI_B1_CLK_port                    GPIO_PORT_P4 #define USCI_B1_MOSI_pin                    GPIO_PIN1 #define USCI_B1_MISO_pin                    GPIO_PIN2 #define USCI_B1_CLK_pin                     GPIO_PIN3

SPI has separate input and output pins and so their declaration need care.

GPIO_setAsPeripheralModuleFunctionInputPin(USCI_A0_MISO_port, USCI_A0_MISO_pin);

GPIO_setAsPeripheralModuleFunctionOutputPin(USCI_A0_MOSI_port, USCI_A0_MOSI_pin);

GPIO_setAsPeripheralModuleFunctionOutputPin(USCI_A0_CLK_port, USCI_A0_CLK_pin);

Many SPI devices need additional control pins and those can be declared as ordinary GPIOs. These pins can be any pins of our choice. In this case, our Nokia GLCD has a reset, chip select and data-command pin apart from SPI communication pins.

#define RST_port                   GPIO_PORT_P6
#define CS_port                    GPIO_PORT_P6
#define DC_port                    GPIO_PORT_P6

#define RST_pin                    GPIO_PIN0
#define CS_pin                     GPIO_PIN1
#define DC_pin                     GPIO_PIN2

#define RST_pin_high()             GPIO_setOutputHighOnPin(RST_port, RST_pin)
#define RST_pin_low()              GPIO_setOutputLowOnPin(RST_port, RST_pin)

#define CS_pin_high()              GPIO_setOutputHighOnPin(CS_port, CS_pin)
#define CS_pin_low()               GPIO_setOutputLowOnPin(CS_port, CS_pin)

#define DC_pin_high()              GPIO_setOutputHighOnPin(DC_port, DC_pin)
#define DC_pin_low()               GPIO_setOutputLowOnPin(DC_port, DC_pin)

....

GPIO_setAsOutputPin(RST_port, RST_pin);
GPIO_setDriveStrength(RST_port, RST_pin, GPIO_FULL_OUTPUT_DRIVE_STRENGTH);

GPIO_setAsOutputPin(CS_port, CS_pin);    
GPIO_setDriveStrength(CS_port, CS_pin, GPIO_FULL_OUTPUT_DRIVE_STRENGTH);

GPIO_setAsOutputPin(DC_port, DC_pin);
GPIO_setDriveStrength(DC_port, DC_pin, GPIO_FULL_OUTPUT_DRIVE_STRENGTH);

The code below shows how we used the USCI_A0 in SPI mode to operate the Nokia GLCD.

void PCD8544_write(unsigned char type, unsigned char value)
{
    switch(type)
    {
        case 1:
        {
            DC_pin_high();
            break;
        }

        default:
        {
            DC_pin_low();
            break;
        }
    }

    CS_pin_low();
    SPI_USCI_A0_write(value);
    CS_pin_high();
}

Writing the display is same as the TFT write example. There is no read back from the GLCD.
