Hi Rick,

       Above is arduino code I'm using to print SPI data received twice. Attached is figure from DSO I observed that there is no signal on MISO pin even after trying for more than half and hour. I measured supply current to DRV8301 it takes about 50mA at 24V when only SPI is powered on. And DRV heats up to 130 C temperature in just 15 minutes. I have not connected any MOSFET circuitry to DRV but rest of the circuitry is same as shown in reference design and it still is heating up a lot.

In figure, topmost signal is clock, then second is MOSI(from microcontroller) then third is MISO and fourth is slaveSelect.

What am I missing?
