18.0 SERIAL PERIPHERAL
INTERFACE (SPI)
Note 1: This data sheet summarizes the features
of the dsPIC33FJ32MC302/304,
dsPIC33FJ64MCX02/X04
and
dsPIC33FJ128MCX02/X04 family of
devices. It is not intended to be a
comprehensive reference source. To
complement the information in this data
sheet, refer to “Section 18. Serial
Peripheral Interface (SPI)” (DS70206)
of the “dsPIC33F/PIC24H Family
Reference Manual”, which is available
from the Microchip web site
(www.microchip.com).
2: Some registers and associated bits
described in this section may not be
available on all devices. Refer to
Section 4.0 “Memory Organization” in
this data sheet for device-specific register
and bit information.
The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) module is a
synchronous serial interface useful for communicating
with other peripheral or microcontroller devices. These
peripheral devices can be serial EEPROMs, shift regis-
ters, display drivers, analog-to-digital converters, etc.
The SPI module is compatible with Motorola^® SPI and
SIOP.
Each SPI module consists of a 16-bit shift register,
SPIxSR (where x = 1 or 2), used for shifting data in and
out, and a buffer register, SPIxBUF. A control register,
SPIxCON, configures the module. Additionally, a status
register, SPIxSTAT, indicates status conditions.
The serial interface consists of 4 pins:
• SDIx (serial data input)
• SDOx (serial data output)
• SCKx (shift clock input or output)
• SSx (active-low slave select)
In Master mode operation, SCK is a clock output. In
Slave mode, it is a clock input.
