Hello, I am trying to communicate with DAC8004 using SPI and thonny micropython.
from the manufacturer manual the periphery is pins 12-15.

However when i try to run the following code of the manual, I get an error shown below that says thatI have a problem in the SPI command.
Where did i go wrong implementing this command?
Thanks.

import machine
from machine import SPI, Pin
from machine import Pin
from time import sleep

cs=machine.Pin(15,machine.Pin.OUT)
spi=machine.SPI(0,baudrate=1000000,polarity=0,phase=0,bits=8,firstbit=machine.SPI.MSB,
                sck=machine.Pin(14),
                mosi=machine.Pin(13),
                miso=machine.Pin(12))

ERROR:
Traceback (most recent call last):

You need to post more code

 

This is my code so far .
It doesn’t allow me to create SPI object.
I am stuck at this step .

 

Spi don't setup like that

import machine
from machine import Pin, SPI
from time import sleep

hspi = SPI(1)  # sck=14 (scl), mosi=13 (sda), miso=12 (unused)
dc = Pin(4)    # data/command
rst = Pin(5)   # reset
cs = Pin(15)   # chip select, some modules do not have a pin for this

 

Hello, I need to send the following command for my DAC8004.
0000 0011 0000 1111 1111 1111 1111 0000
Its 32bit command.So i need to lower CS send 4 times 8 bits and raise CS.
from the manual below I see a sample of command spi.write(b"12345678").
The problem with this command is that its not binary.

In C i have written the following variables.
uint8_t B7_B0=0b11110000; //first 4 are dont care,first 4 bits data
uint8_t B15_B8=0b11111111;//data bits
uint8_t B23_B16=0b00000000;//channel A DATA total 0000 1111 1111 1111
uint8_t B31_B24=0b00000011;//write to buffer and update DAC ,Write /rest dont care
How do i send these variables in micropython?
Thanks.

UPDATE:


Hello , I have built the following code and defined hspi.
I defined buf2[0] but as you can see below i cant send it.
Where di i go wrong sending this variable?


*************************************
import machine
from machine import Pin, SPI

hspi = SPI(1, baudrate=1000000, polarity=0, phase=0)

dc = Pin(4) # data/command
rst = Pin(5) # reset
cs = Pin(15) # chip select, some modules do not have a pin for this
cs.value(0)

cs.value(1)

UPDATE:


Hello,my command is, SPI is defined as MSB first. did i send the data properly?
0000 0011 0000 1111 1111 1111 1111 0000
MSB *********************************** LSB
