Hi Tim,

The process to get AT25 SPI is similar, but for SPI you need to get
the CS pin configure besides the other four SPI pins.

Is this your first time using SPI on NuttX?

There are some tutorials at NuttX Channel explaining how to use SPI on
NuttX, like using SDCard over SPI. I suggest you to start with a board
that has everything in place already, like the STM32F4Discovery or
BluePill (stm32f103-minimum).

Also the guys from MicroROS wrote a more technical tutorial about how
SPI works on NuttX:

https://github.com/micro-ROS/NuttX/issues/29

There is not theoretical class of swimming, you need to enter in the
water, just start in the shallow place: stm32 + sdcard spi for
example.

BR,

Alan
