Issues with SPI loop back test for STM32 Nucleo F401RE board

Hi,

I have an issue while running the peripheral_spi test example with the STM32F401 Nucelo board. I have made the hardware connections as per the peripheral configuration file and tried to run an SPI loopback test. However, I receive only 0x00 instead of any character that I transmit on the MOSI pin.

The connections that I have made are: MOSI pin (Port A_7) connected to the MISO pin (Port A_6)

Can someone help me out with this issue?

Thanks, Niharika.

Hi Niharika,

do you have an other stm32f4 board at hand (e.g. stm32f4discovery) to confirm it's the same issue there? A scope or logic analyzer would be useful to check if CLK and MOSI are running.

The general setups seems reasonable in general. In case the issue persists please add a note to this issue where we collect leftovers from recent SPI reworks in RIOT.
