slower. When the SPI is configured as a slave, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) for full-duplex
operation is 1/10 the system clock frequency, provided that the master issues SCK, NSS (in 4-wire slave
mode), and the serial input data synchronously with the slave’s system clock. If the master issues SCK,
NSS, and the serial input data asynchronously, the maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) must be less
than 1/10 the system clock frequency. In the special case where the master only wants to transmit data to
the slave and does not need to receive data from the slave (i.e. half-duplex operation), the SPI slave can
receive data at a maximum data transfer rate (bits/sec) of 1/4 the system clock frequency. This is provided
that the master issues SCK, NSS, and the serial input data synchronously with the slave’s system clock.
