clock output in the master mode but is the clock input in the
slave mode. Writing to the SPI data register of the master
CPU starts the SPI clock generator, and the data written
shifts out of the MOSI pin and into the MOSI pin of the
slave CPU. After shifting one byte, the SPI clock generator
stops, setting the end of transmission flag (SPIF). If both
the SPI interrupt enable bit (SPIE) and the serial port inter-
rupt enable bit (ES) are set, an interrupt is requested.
the SPI port is deactivated and the MOSI/P1.5 pin can be
used as an input.
There are four combinations of SCK phase and polarity
with respect to serial data, which are determined by control
bits CPHA and CPOL. The SPI data transfer formats are
shown in Figures 8 and 9.
The Slave Select input, SS/P1.4, is set low to select an
individual SPI device as a slave. When SS/P1.4 is set high,
