  • Hello Guys,

    I am new to omega ..i have omega development kit with omega 2s+ i have compiled spidev test utility for testing spi . and when i run the test by calling (./spidev -v) it reads garbage value.
    as a given below

    [[[[ [spi mode: 0x0
    bits per word: 8
    max speed: 500000 Hz (500 KHz)

    @rahul2413 looks like you're trying to do a full-duplex SPI transaction. The Omega2 family does not support full-duplex on the hardware SPI bus.

    Half-duplex transactions will work fine. More details in this FAQ post.

    If you absolutely need full-duplex, you can try using a software-based SPI bus.
