The program gets stuck during I2C communication #1997

Closed Octopus1633 closed 1 month ago

Octopus1633 commented 1 month ago

Hello,

I encountered a strange problem. When using RP2350 with 2MB or 4MB FLASH, everything worked fine. When I changed to 8MB or 16MB, I needed to adjust PICO_FLASH_SPI_CLKDIV or PICO_XOSC_STARTUP_DELAY_MULTIPLIER. After adjustment, 8MB can run normally, but 16MB occasionally fails.

I debugged the program and found that when it failed to run, the program was stuck in a loop, which was called by the program in the i2c_write_blocking_internal function:

do {
    if (timeout_check) {
        timeout = timeout_check(ts, false);
        abort |= timeout;
    }
    tight_loop_contents();
} while (!timeout && !(i2c->hw->raw_intr_stat & I2C_IC_RAW_INTR_STAT_TX_EMPTY_BITS));

I tried to print out I2C_IC_RAW_INTR_STAT_TX_EMPTY_BITS and found that the bit was always 0 and did not change. What could be the reason for this?

Could you provide more details about which exact Flash chips you're using, and which RP2350 board you're using?

Also, if you're able to provide a more complete code-example, that might be useful.

Thanks for your reply, I have solved it. It seems that PICO_FLASH_SPI_CLKDIV and PICO_XOSC_STARTUP_DELAY_MULTIPLIER are set too large, which may cause I2C to fail to communicate after startup.
