  • SPI Register Write block

Libraries:
NVIDIA Jetson and NVIDIA DRIVE / Communication

Description

Add-On Required: This feature requires the MATLAB Coder Support Package for NVIDIA Jetson and NVIDIA DRIVE Platforms add-on.

The SPI Register Write block writes data to a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) peripheral device connected to an NVIDIA® Jetson™ board.

Ports

Input

Data to write, specified as a scalar or vector.

Data Types: single | double | int8 | int16 | int32 | int64 | uint8 | uint16 | uint32 | uint64

Parameters

To edit block parameters interactively, use the Property Inspector. From the Simulink® Toolstrip, on the Simulation tab, in the Prepare gallery, select Property Inspector.

Hardware board to deploy the model to.

Programmatic Use

To set the block parameter value programmatically, use the set_param (Simulink) function.

To get the block parameter value programmatically, use the get_param (Simulink) function.

Parameter: Board
Values: "NVIDIA Jetson TX2 Developer Kit" | "NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier Developer Kit" | "NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin Developer Kit" | "NVIDIA Jetson Xavier NX Developer Kit" | "NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit" | "NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit"

Example: set_param(gcb,"Board","NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit")

Pin connected to the SPI peripheral device. For TX2 boards, the default value is SPI3_CS0. For other boards, the default value is SPI0_CS0.

Dependencies

The available options depend on the Board parameter. This table shows the available interfaces for each board.

Programmatic Use

To set the block parameter value programmatically, use the set_param (Simulink) function.

To get the block parameter value programmatically, use the get_param (Simulink) function.

Parameter: ClockMode
Values: "0" (default) | "1" | "2" | "3"

Example: set_param(gcb,"ClockMode","2")

SPI peripheral address to write to. Each value of the register address must be a nonnegative integer less than or equal to 255.

Programmatic Use

To set the block parameter value programmatically, use the set_param (Simulink) function.

To get the block parameter value programmatically, use the get_param (Simulink) function.

Parameter: RegisterAddress
Values: "0" (default) | integer between 0 and 255 in quotes

Example: set_param(gcb,"RegisterAddress","[1 2]")
