SYNOPSIS
spi-config options...
DESCRIPTION
Set or query the configuration of a SPI port.
- -d, --device=DEVICE
- use the given Linux spidev character device.
- -q, --query
- print the current configuration.
- -m, --mode=[0-3]
- set the spi mode (see SPI MODES below).
- -l, --lsb={0,1}
- set LSB first (1) or MSB first (0).
- -b, --bits=[7...]
- set the number of bits per word.
- -s, --speed=FREQUENCY
- set clock frequency (in Hz).
- -r, --spirdy={0,1}
- set the SPI READY mode flag.
- -s, --wait
- block, keeping the file descriptor open. See WAIT OPTION below.
- -h, --help
- display the help screen and exit.
- -v, --version
- display the version number and exit.
SPI MODES
WAIT OPTION
On some platforms, the speed is reset to a default value when the file descriptor is closed. To avoid this, one can use the -w option that keeps the file descriptor open. See also last example below.
EXAMPLES
- Get help:
- $ spi-config -h
- Query current configuration:
- $ spi-config --device=/dev/spidev0.0 -q
- Change clock frequency to 1 MHz:
- $ spi-config --device=/dev/spidev0.0 --speed=1000000
- Set a configuration and keep the device open:
- $ spi-config --wait --speed=1000000 & PID=$!
- Close device previously open:
- $ kill $PID
