Serial Peripheral Interface (S12SPIV5)
15.1 Introduction
The SPI module allows a duplex, synchronous, serial communication between the MCU and peripheral
devices. Software can poll the SPI status flags or the SPI operation can be interrupt driven.
15.1.1 Glossary of Terms
15.1.2 Features
The SPI includes these distinctive features:
• Master mode and slave mode
• Selectable 8 or 16-bit transfer width
• Bidirectional mode
• Slave select output
• Mode fault error flag with CPU interrupt capability
• Double-buffered data register
• Serial clock with programmable polarity and phase
• Control of SPI operation during wait mode
15.1.3 Modes of Operation
The SPI functions in three modes: run, wait, and stop.
