spi master slave bb
Figure 1. Wiring Diagram for SPI Master and Slave.

At least one of the boards should be powered, and will share power to the other.

If the master is not connected properly to a slave, the master will report reading all zeroes.

If the slave is not connected properly to a master, it will initialize but never transmit nor receive, because it’s waiting for clock signal from the master.

Outputs

Both master and slave boards will give output to stdio.

With master and slave properly connected, the master should output something like this:

SPI master example
SPI master says: The following buffer will be written to MOSI endlessly:

The slave should output something like this:
