				| [SOLVED] Trouble getting SPI to work on PIC16F1509 |

				| Hello, 
 I'm looking at the pins with a scope and I can't seem to get anything going for SPI.   Been working on in all day and I figure I must be doing something incredibly stupid.   I simplified as much as possible here and still nothing:
 
 DETAILS:
 
 PCM Compiler V4.140
 PIC161509
 Target Voltage is 5V
 Osc Speed 16MHz internal
 
  	  | Code: |  	  | 
 #include <16f1509.h>
 #fuses HS, NOWDT, NOLVP, PROTECT
 #device ADC=10
 #use delay(clock=16000000, int)
 #use spi(MASTER, IDLE=1, SAMPLE_RISE, SPI1, FORCE_HW, ENABLE=PIN_C6, STREAM=STREAM1)
 
 
 
 
 void main ()
 {
 
 while(1)
 {
 
 spi_xfer(STREAM1,80,16);
 delay_ms(1000);
 
 }
 }

				| Without even looking at your program too closely, I can say the loop delay is way too long.   See this thread:
 http://www.ccsinfo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=56768
 He shortened his loop delay and then he could see the SPI pulses.

				| Also, 'be aware', that SPI, if specified without a baud rate, will run as fast as possible, so without reading the data sheet and checking, I'd guess yours will be running at 4MHz. A fast clock to see especially with just 16 pulses sent once per second (a lot less if you are looking at the data line).... |  |
