Multibit ports

[AtomSoft]

Was using a Release with "-O2 -g"

I tried -O3

but no change

[AtomSoft]

I guess its a xTime Glitch.. i restarted the program and tried again and its at 6MHz :X crazy stuff.. but i guess 6MHz is better than 1 :)

Yeah, 6MHz is about 20 thread cycles per bit, which is
reasonable for this code. If you optimise it a bit more you
should be able to get it closer to 10.

If you use buffered ports you can go much faster still.

i guess ill play around with it and see what i can get done with it... can you , if possible link me to some good buffered port documentation. The XMOS docs are so huge and spread out.

I just skimmed this...

Is there a way to set the clock to a certain speed?
I just noticed you have to supply a clock :(

hmm... What if i use parallel stuff to toggle a pin at a certain rate (my speed) and then loop the outpin to my CLK pin...

Would that work ?

[segher]

You can use an internally generated clock, or get a clock
from a 1-bit port -- in the latter case, you can indeed
generate that clock yourself in software (and there is no
need to use a separate thread for that); but keep in mind
that this limits you to about 25MHz for SPI.

May I advise you to try simpler things first, get acquainted
with the architecture and tools and documentation and XC?

For inspiration you can look at the various modules on github.

Sure i finally found:

Programming XC on XMOS Devices

and i plan on reading more. Its just that im a hands on person (no sexual intent lol ) but yeah i like to see it working. I hate to just read, unless its a novel or something.
