19.2.3

SPI Serial Clock (SCK)

This signal is used to synchronize the data movement both in and out the devices through their

MOSI and MISO lines. It is driven by the Master for eight clock cycles which allows to exchange

one byte on the serial lines.

19.2.4

Slave Select (SS)

Each Slave peripheral is selected by one Slave Select pin (SS). This signal must stay low for any

message for a Slave. It is obvious that only one Master (SS high level) can drive the network.

The Master may select each Slave device by software through port pins (Figure 19-1). To pre-

vent bus conflicts on the MISO line, only one slave should be selected at a time by the Master

for a transmission.

In a Master configuration, the SS line can be used in conjunction with the MODF flag in the SPI

Status register (SPSTA) to prevent multiple masters from driving MOSI and SCK (see

Section “Error Conditions”, page 98).

A high level on the SS pin puts the MISO line of a Slave SPI in a high-impedance state.

The SS pin could be used as a general-purpose if the following conditions are met:

• The device is configured as a Master and the SSDIS control bit in SPCON is set. This kind of

configuration can be found when only one Master is driving the network and there is no way

that the SS pin could be pulled low. Therefore, the MODF flag in the SPSTA will never be

set(1).

• The Device is configured as a Slave with CPHA and SSDIS control bits set(2) This kind of

configuration can happen when the system comprises one Master and one Slave only.

Therefore, the device should always be selected and there is no reason that the Master uses

the SS pin to select the communicating Slave device.

Notes:

1. Clearing SSDIS control bit does not clear MODF.

2. Special care should be taken not to set SSDIS control bit when CPHA =’0’ because in this

mode, the SS is used to start the transmission.

19.2.5

Baud Rate

In Master mode, the baud rate can be selected from a baud rate generator which is controlled by

three bits in the SPCON register: SPR2, SPR1 and SPR0. The Master clock is chosen from one

of seven clock rates resulting from the division of the internal clock by 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 or 128.

Table 19-1 gives the different clock rates selected by SPR2:SPR1:SPR0:
