Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
20.5.2 Slave Mode
Technical Data
302
The SPR1 and SPR0 bits control the baud rate generator and determine
the speed of the shift register. See
Through the SPSCK pin, the baud rate generator of the master also
controls the shift register of the slave peripheral.
As the byte shifts out on the MOSI pin of the master, another byte shifts
in from the slave on the master’s MISO pin. The transmission ends when
the receiver full bit, SPRF, becomes set. At the same time that SPRF
becomes set, the byte from the slave transfers to the receive data
register. In normal operation, SPRF signals the end of a transmission.
Software clears SPRF by reading the SPI status and control register with
SPRF set and then reading the SPI data register. Writing to the SPI data
register clears the SPTE bit.
The SPI operates in slave mode when the SPMSTR bit is clear. In slave
mode, the SPSCK pin is the input for the serial clock from the master
MCU. Before a data transmission occurs, the SS pin of the slave SPI
must be at logic 0. SS must remain low until the transmission is
complete. See
In a slave SPI module, data enters the shift register under the control of
the serial clock from the master SPI module. After a byte enters the shift
register of a slave SPI, it transfers to the receive data register, and the
SPRF bit is set. To prevent an overflow condition, slave software then
must read the receive data register before another full byte enters the
shift register.
The maximum frequency of the SPSCK for an SPI configured as a slave
is the bus clock speed (which is twice as fast as the fastest master
SPSCK clock that can be generated). The frequency of the SPSCK for
an SPI configured as a slave does not have to correspond to any SPI
baud rate. The baud rate only controls the speed of the SPSCK
generated by an SPI configured as a master. Therefore, the frequency
of the SPSCK for an SPI configured as a slave can be any frequency
less than or equal to the bus speed.
