help
|
||||
The "Serial Peripheral Interface" is a low level synchronous
|
||||
protocol. Chips that support SPI can have data transfer rates
|
||||
up to several tens of Mbit/sec. Chips are addressed with a
|
||||
controller and a chipselect. Most SPI slaves don't support
|
||||
dynamic device discovery; some are even write-only or read-only.
|
||||
|
||||
SPI is widely used by microcontrollers to talk with sensors,
|
||||
eeprom and flash memory, codecs and various other controller
|
||||
chips, analog to digital (and d-to-a) converters, and more.
|
||||
MMC and SD cards can be accessed using SPI protocol; and for
|
||||
DataFlash cards used in MMC sockets, SPI must always be used.
|
||||
|
||||
SPI is one of a family of similar protocols using a four wire
|
||||
interface (select, clock, data in, data out) including Microwire
|
||||
(half duplex), SSP, SSI, and PSP. This driver framework should
|
||||
work with most such devices and controllers.
