Chapter 19: LPC24XX SPI
7. Register description

The SPI contains 5 registers as shown in Table19–461. All registers are byte, half word

and word accessible.

[1] Reset Value reflects the data stored in used bits only. It does not include reserved bits content.
7.1 SPI Control Register (S0SPCR - 0xE002 0000)

The S0SPCR register controls the operation of the SPI0 as per the configuration bits

setting.

S0SPCR SPI Control Register. This register controls the
operation of the SPI. R/W 0x00 0xE0020000
S0SPSR SPI Status Register. This register shows the
status of the SPI. RO 0x00 0xE002 0004
S0SPDR SPI Data Register. This bi-directional register
provides the transmit and receive data for the
SPI. Transmit data is provided to the SPI0 by
writing to this register. Data received by the SPI0
can be read from this register.
R/W 0x00 0xE0020008
S0SPCCR SPI Clock Counter Register. This register
controls the frequency of a master’s SCK0. R/W 0x00 0xE002000C
S0SPINT SPI Interrupt Flag. This register contains the
interrupt flag for the SPI interface. R/W 0x00 0xE002 001C

Bit Symbol Value Description Reset
Value
1:0 - Reserved, user software should not write ones to
reserved bits. The value read from a reserved bit is not
defined.
NA
2 BitEnab le 0 The SPI controller sends and receives 8 bits of data per
transfer. 0
1 The SPI controller sends and receives the number of bits
selected by bits 11:8.
3CPHA
0
Clock phase control determines the relationship between
the data and the clock on SPI transfers, and controls
when a slave transfer is defined as starting and ending.
Data is sampled on the first clock edge of SCK. A transfer
starts and ends with activation and deactivation of the
SSEL signal.
0
1 Data is sampled on the second clock edge of the SCK. A
transfer starts with the first clock edge, and ends with the
last sampling edge when the SSEL signal is active.
4CPOL
0
Clock polarity control.
SCK is active high.
0
1 SCK is active low.
