Figure 13-8. SPRF/SPTE CPU Interrupt Timing
The transmit data buffer allows back-to-back transmissions without the slave precisely timing its writes
between transmissions as in a system with a single data buffer. Also, if no new data is written to the data
buffer, the last value contained in the shift register is the next data word to be transmitted.
For an idle master or idle slave that has no data loaded into its transmit buffer, the SPTE is set again no
more than two bus cycles after the transmit buffer empties into the shift register. This allows the user to
queue up a 16-bit value to send. For an already active slave, the load of the shift register cannot occur
until the transmission is completed. This implies that a back-to-back write to the transmit data register is
not possible. The SPTE indicates when the next write can occur.
13.7 Error Conditions
The following flags signal SPI error conditions:
•
Overflow (OVRF) — Failing to read the SPI data register before the next full byte enters the shift
register sets the OVRF bit. The new byte does not transfer to the receive data register, and the
unread byte still can be read. OVRF is in the SPI status and control register.
•
Mode fault error (MODF) — The MODF bit indicates that the voltage on the slave select pin (SS)
is inconsistent with the mode of the SPI. MODF is in the SPI status and control register.
