14.0 SSP MODULE OVERVIEW

The Synchronous Serial Port (SSP) module is a serial

interface used to communicate with other peripheral or

microcontroller devices. These peripheral devices

may be serial EEPROMs, shift registers, display

drivers, A/D converters, etc. The SSP module can

operate in one of two modes:

• Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)

• Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C

™)

Refer to Application Note AN578, “Use of the SSP

Module in the Multi-Master Environment” (DS00578).

14.1

SPI Mode

This section contains register definitions and operational

characteristics of the SPI module.

The SPI mode allows 8 bits of data to be synchronously

transmitted and received simultaneously. To accomplish

communication, typically three pins are used:

• Serial Data Out (SDO)

• Serial Data In (SDI)

• Serial Clock (SCK)

Additionally, a fourth pin may be used when in a Slave

mode of operation:

• Slave Select (SS)

(SPI MODE)

Note 1: When the SPI is in Slave mode with SS

pin control enabled (SSPM<3:0> bits of

the SSPCON register = 0100), the SPI

module will reset if the SS pin is set to

VDD.

2: If the SPI is used in Slave mode with

CKE = 1, then the SS pin control must be

enabled.

3: When the SPI is in Slave mode with SS

pin control enabled (SSPM<3:0> bits of

the SSPCON register = 0100), the state

of the SS pin can affect the state read

back from the TRISC<4> bit. The

peripheral OE signal from the SSP

module into PORTC controls the state

that is read back from the TRISC<4> bit

(see Section 19.0 “Electrical

Specifications” for information on

PORTC). If read-write-modify

instructions, such as BSF, are performed

on the TRISC register while the SS pin is

high, this will cause the TRISC<4> bit to

be set, thus disabling the SDO output.
