RFM22B Problems

Hello,

I am working with a RFM22B on a Breakout board hooked to a Duemilanove board, using the libraries from http://www.open.com.au/mikem/arduino/RF22/

When loading the example (RF22_snoop.pde), I get a “RF22 Init Failure”, more specifically when the init code reads the 0x00 register it has a null/empty value. I have verified that the pins are connected correctly, and there is 3.3 volts being delivered to the board. This setup worked 12 hours ago, and now fails the init. I would appreciate any steps that would help me troubleshoot this issue, which my guess is in the SPI communications.

D2 → IRQ

D10 → CSN

D11 → SDI

D12 → SDO

D13 → SCK

Thanks,

Jay

After turning it off for a couple hours and going to lunch it worked. Maybe the board was just hungry.
