I want to use microcontrollers for communicating data by SPI. So, I have chosen firstly the Microchip USB Starter Kit III module which has a PIC32MX470F512L. I tried several ways to code its SPI, but only the clock signal SCK can be seen on an oscilloscope.
Then, i tried the same code (just adjusted a few code lines to the new PIC) with the Microchip Starter Kit I which has a PIC32MX360F512L. And all run perfectly. So, i don't understand why the USB Starter Kit III doesn't work for SPI communication?
I give you the code used to test the SPI SDO & /SS.
