Peripheral Interface
The AT8xC5132 implement a Synchronous Peripheral Interface with master and slave
modes capability.
Figure 93 shows an SPI bus configuration using the AT8xC5132 as master connected
to slave peripherals. Figure 94 shows an SPI bus configuration using the AT8xC5132 as
slave of an other master.
The bus is made of three wires connecting all the devices together:
•
Master Output Slave Input (MOSI): it is used to transfer data in series from the
master to a slave. It is driven by the master.
•
Master Input Slave Output (MISO): it is used to transfer data in series from a slave
to the master. It is driven by the selected slave.
•
Serial Clock (SCK): it is used to synchronize the data transmission both in and out
of the devices through their MOSI and MISO lines. It is driven by the master for eight
clock cycles which allows to exchange one byte on the serial lines.
Each slave peripheral is selected by one Slave Select pin (SS). If there is only one
slave, it may be continuously selected with SS tied to a low level. Otherwise, the
AT8xC5132 may select each device by software through port pins (Pn.x). Special care
should be taken not to select two slaves at the same time to avoid bus conflicts.
