PIC18F47J53 FAMILY
20.0 MASTER SYNCHRONOUS
SERIAL PORT (MSSP)
MODULE
The Master Synchronous Serial Port (MSSP) module is
a serial interface, useful for communicating with other
peripheral or microcontroller devices. These peripheral
devices include serial EEPROMs, shift registers,
display drivers and A/D Converters.
20.1 Master SSP (MSSP) Module
Overview
The MSSP module can operate in one of two modes:
• Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
• Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C™)
- Full Master mode
- Slave mode (with general address call)
The I2C interface supports the following modes in
hardware:
• Master mode
• Multi-Master mode
• Slave mode with 5-bit and 7-bit address masking
(with address masking for both 10-bit and 7-bit
addressing)
All members of the PIC18F47J53 family have two
MSSP modules, designated as MSSP1 and MSSP2.
The modules operate independently:
• PIC18F4XJ53 devices – Both modules can be
configured for either I2C or SPI communication
• PIC18F2XJ53 devices:
- MSSP1 can be used for either I2C or SPI
communication
- MSSP2 can be used only for SPI
communication
All of the MSSP1 module related SPI and I2C I/O
functions are hard-mapped to specific I/O pins.
For MSSP2 functions:
• SPI I/O functions (SDO2, SDI2, SCK2 and SS2)
are all routed through the Peripheral Pin Select
(PPS) module.
These functions may be configured to use any of
the RPn remappable pins, as described in
Section 10.7 “Peripheral Pin Select (PPS)”.
• I2C functions (SCL2 and SDA2) have fixed pin
locations.
On all PIC18F47J53 family devices, the SPI DMA
capability can only be used in conjunction with MSSP2.
The SPI DMA feature is described in Section 20.4
“SPI DMA Module”.
Note:
Throughout this section, generic
references to an MSSP module in any of its
operating modes may be interpreted as
being equally applicable to MSSP1 or
MSSP2. Register names and module I/O
signals use the generic designator ‘x’ to
indicate the use of a numeral to distinguish
a particular module when required. Control
bit names are not individuated.
