5.12Serial Port Interface (SPI)

The contains 3 separate SPI modules. These modules provide a programmable length shift register which allows serial communication with other SPI devices through a 3 or 4 wire interface (Clock, Data In, Data Out, and Enable). The SPI supports the following features:

Master mode operation

2 chip selects for interfacing to multiple slave SPI devices.

3 or 4 wire interface (Clock, Data In, Data Out, and Enable)

Unique interrupt for each SPI port

Separate DMA events for SPI Receive and Transmit

16-bit shift register

Receive buffer register

Programmable character length (2 to 16 bits)

Programmable SPI clock frequency range

8-bit clock prescaler

Programmable clock phase (delay or no delay)

Programmable clock polarity

The SPI modules do not support the following features:

Slave mode. Only Master mode is supported in DM355 (Master mode means that DM355 provides the serial clock).

GPIO mode. GPIO functionality is supported by the GIO modules for those SPI pins that are multiplexed with GPIO signals.
