FIFO management
to an interrupt, and thus might lead to difficulties for interfacing with some serial peripherals
requiring the chip select line to remain active during a full set of transfers.
To facilitate interfacing with such devices, the CSRn registers can be configured with the Chip
Select Active After Transfer bit written to one (CSRn.CSAAT) . This allows the chip select lines
to remain in their current state (low = active) until transfer to another peripheral is required.
When the CSRn.CSAAT bit is written to qero, the NPCS does not rise in all cases between two
transfers on the same peripheral. During a transfer on a Chip Select, the SR.TDRE bit rises as
soon as the content of the TDR is transferred into the internal shifter. When this bit is detected
the TDR can be reloaded. If this reload occurs before the end of the current transfer and if the
next transfer is performed on the same chip select as the current transfer, the Chip Select is not
de-asserted between the two transfers. This might lead to difficulties for interfacing with some
serial peripherals requiring the chip select to be de-asserted after each transfer. To facilitate
interfacing with such devices, the CSRn registers can be configured with the Chip Select Not
Active After Transfer bit (CSRn.CSNAAT) written to one. This allows to de-assert systematically
the chip select lines during a time DLYBCS. (The value of the CSRn.CSNAAT bit is taken into
account only if the CSRn.CSAAT bit is written to zero for the same Chip Select).

A FIFO has been implemented in Reception FIFO (both in master and in slave mode), in order to
be able to store up to 4 characters without causing an overrun error. If an attempt is made to
store a fifth character, an overrun error rises. If such an event occurs, the FIFO must be flushed.
There are two ways to Flush the FIFO:
After that, the SPI is able to receive new data.
• By performing four read accesses of the RDR (the data read must be ignored)
• By writing a one to the Flush Fifo Command bit in the CR register (CR.FLUSHFIFO).
