1.7 SPI Driver Synchronous - Multi Client

This example writes and reads data to and from two separate EEPROMs connected over the same SPI bus by using the multi client feature of a synchronous SPI driver. The example also demonstrates how to setup two different client transfers at two different baud rates.

The example has three RTOS threads for the purpose:

• APP_EEPROM1_Tasks: This thread performs write-read operation on the first EEPROM
• APP_EEPROM2_Tasks: This thread performs write-read operation on the second EEPROM
• APP_MONITOR_Tasks: This thread checks the status of the EEPROM transfers and turns on the LED if the transfers are successful

To build the application, refer to the following table and open the project using its IDE.

To load the application binary onto the target device, we need to use at91bootstrap loader. Refer to the at91bootstrap loader documentation for details on how to configure, build and run bootstrap loader project and use it to bootstrap the application binaries.

The following table shows the target hardware for the application projects.

1. Build the application using its IDE.
2. The LED turns ON when the data read from the EEPROMs matches with the data written to the EEPROMs.
