Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Module
17.1 Introduction
This section describes the serial peripheral interface (SPI) module, which allows full-duplex, synchronous,
serial communications with peripheral devices.
17.2 Features
Features of the SPI module include:
• Full-duplex operation
• Master and slave modes
• Double-buffered operation with separate transmit and receive registers
• Four master mode frequencies (maximum = bus frequency ÷ 2)
• Maximum slave mode frequency = bus frequency
• Serial clock with programmable polarity and phase
• Two separately enabled interrupts:
– SPRF (SPI receiver full)
– SPTE (SPI transmitter empty)
• Mode fault error flag with CPU interrupt capability
• Overflow error flag with CPU interrupt capability
• Programmable wired-OR mode
• I2C (inter-integrated circuit) compatibility
• I/O (input/output) port bit(s) software configurable with pullup device(s) if configured as input port
bit(s)
17.3 Pin Name Conventions
The text that follows describes the SPI. The SPI I/O pin names are SS (slave select), SPSCK (SPI serial
clock), CGND (clock ground), MOSI (master out slave in), and MISO (master in/slave out). The SPI
shares four I/O pins with four parallel I/O ports.
The full names of the SPI I/O pins are shown in Table 17-1. The generic pin names appear in the text that
follows.
