appreciated, dale. something that, in my... eenteresting history of interactions in the software libre world of the past 18 years i'm a leetle paranoid about. > I say this as someone in early stages of an aerospace > product development. intriguing. as there's some interest i'm happier to be able to carry on a bit more: investigations of SD/MMC which is coincidentally multiplexed onto the EOMA68-A20 CPU Card [not as a bit-banged interface, jerry - one of the many assumptions i left it with you to ask as questions not as judgements] show that SD/MMC has an SPI mode [not as a big-banged interface, jerry - another of the assumptions that you made as judgements]. and, although it's sketchy, there appears to be evidence in the form of a broadcom wifi driver of active support for SPI in the allwinner SD/MMC/SDIO hardware: https://github.com/allwinner-ics/lichee_linux-3.0/blob/master/drivers/staging/brcm80211/include/sdio.h so it looks at first glance like it's possible. really i should get some sort of random bit of SPI-based hardware and try it out. l. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
