Data Modes

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 Figure 43 and Figure 44.

SPI Control Register - SPCR

Bit 7 - SPIE: SPI Interrupt Enable

This bit causes the SPI interrupt to be executed if SPIF bit in the SPSR register is set and the if the global interrupt enable
bit in SREG is set.

Bit 6 - SPE: SPI Enable

When the SPE bit is set (one), the SPI is enabled. This bit must be set to enable any SPI operations.

Bit 5 - DORD: Data Order

When the DORD bit is set (one), the LSB of the data word is transmitted first.

When the DORD bit is cleared (zero), the MSB of the data word is transmitted first.

Bit 4 - MSTR: Master/Slave Select

This bit selects Master SPI mode when set (one), and Slave SPI mode when cleared (zero). If SS is configured as an input
and is driven low while MSTR is set, MSTR will be cleared, and SPIF in SPSR will become set. The user will then have to
set MSTR to re-enable SPI master mode.

Bit 3 - CPOL: Clock Polarity

When this bit is set (one), SCK is high when idle. When CPOL is cleared (zero), SCK is low when idle. Refer to Figure 43
and Figure 44 for additional information.
