Serial Perpheral Interface (SPI) Settings

SPI settings pertaining to the bus master device can be modified in the xPico Wi-Fi unit. SPI settings, like line settings, allow for the selection of a protocol to be used with SPI. Changes take effect immediately.

 

Table 5-2 SPI Configuration Settings

 

 

Line Settings

Description

Name

Enter a name or short description for the line, if desired. By default, there is

 

no name specified. This name is for display only.

 

 

State

Select to Enable or Disable the SPI.

 

 

Protocol

Select the operational protocol for connection to the SPI:

 

None: selects no application to connect to the SPI.

 

Monitor: selects Monitor application to connect to the SPI.

 

 

Target Speed

Set the target clock speed of the SPI in Hz (range is 234.375 KHz - 30 MHz).

 

The target speed may be lowered to the closest operating speed capability of

 

the device. If so, a warning will be noted. 0 or clearing the selection selects

 

the minimum speed.

 

 

Idle Clock Level

Select the level of the clock or clock polarity (CPOL) when the clock is idle:

 

Low: the idle clock is at a low level. This is equivalent to CPOL=0.

 

High: the idle clock is at a high level. This is equivalent to CPOL=1.

 

 

Clock Edge

Select the clock edge or clock phase (CPHA) for latching data:

 

First: each bit is latched on the first edge of the clock. This is equivalent to

 

CPHA=0.

 

Second: each bit is latched on the second edge of the clock. This is

 

equivalent to CPHA=1.

 

 

Bits Per Word

Select the number of bits per word to transfer. Choices in drop-down menu

 

are 8 or 16.

 

 

First Transfer

Select the first transfer bit of each word. Choicse in drop-down menu include:

 

Most Significant Bit

 

Least Signficant Bit
