Overview

The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) is a high-speed, full duplex, synchronous data transfer interface using three or four

pins. It allows fast communication between an AVR XMEGA device and peripheral devices or between several

microcontrollers.

A device connected to the bus must act as a master or slave. The master initiates and controls all data transactions. The

interconnection between master and slave devices with SPI is shown in Figure 23-1. The system consists of two shift

registers and a clock generator. The SPI master initiates the communication by pulling the slave select (SS) signal low

for the desired slave. Master and slave prepare the data to be sent in their respective shift registers, and the master

generates the required clock pulses on the SCK line to interchange data. Data are always shifted from master to slave on

the master output, slave input (MOSI) line, and from slave to master on the master input, slave output (MISO) line. After

each data packet, the master can synchronize the slave by pulling the SS line high.

By default, the SPI module is single buffered and transmit direction and double buffered in the receive direction. A byte

written to the transmit data register will be copied to the shift register when a full character has been received. When

receiving data, a received character must be read from the transmit data register before the third character has been

completely shifted in to avoid losing data. Optionally, buffer modes can be enabled. When used, one buffer is available

for transmitter and a double buffer for reception.

PORTC has one SPI. Notation of this is SPIC
