devices. SCLK, which is generated by the microcon-
troller, is active only during address and data transfer
to any device on the SPI bus. The inactive clock polari-
ty is usually programmable on the microcontroller side
of the SPI interface. In the devices, input data is
latched on the positive edge, and output data is shift-
ed out on the negative edge. There is one clock cycle
for each bit transferred. Address and data bits are
transferred in groups of eight.
The SPI protocol allows for one of four combinations of
serial clock phase and polarity from the microcontroller,
through a 2-bit selection in its SPI Control register. The
clock polarity is specified by the CPOL Control bit,
which selects active-high or active-low clock, and has
no significant effect on the transfer format. The clock
phase control bit, CPHA, selects one of two different
transfer formats. The clock phase and polarity must be
identical for the master and the slave. For the devices,
set the control bits to CPHA = 1 and CPOL = 1. This

configures the system for data out to be launched on
the negative edge of SCLK and data in to be sampled
on the positive edge. With CPHA equal to 1, CS can
remain low between successive data byte transfers,
allowing burst-mode data transfers to occur.
Address and data bytes are shifted MSB first into DIN
of the devices, and out of DOUT. Data is shifted out at
the negative edge of SCLK, and shifted in or sampled
at the positive edge of SCLK. Any transfer requires an
address/command byte followed by one or more
bytes of data. Data is transferred out of DOUT for a
read operation, and into DIN for a write operation.
DOUT transmits data only after an address/command
byte specifies a read operation; otherwise, it is high
impedance.
Data transfer write timing is shown in Figure 1. Data
transfer read timing is shown in Figure 2. Detailed read
and write timing is shown in Figure 3.
