12.5.4 – SPI Slave Register Descriptions

SPI Slave Module has four SFR registers. These are SPICN_S, SPICF_S, SPICK_S, and SPIB_S. The SPI control
register SPICN_S and SPI configuration register SPICF_S controls and configures the Serial Peripheral Interface
respectively. The SPI Clock Register SPICK_S is not used in SPI Slave mode as SPI clock is driven by SPI Master.
The SPI Buffer SPIB_S is used in SPI data transfer. SPI Slave SFRs are located in Module 1.

DESCRIPTION

7

STBY

Write Transfer Busy Flag. This bit indicates the current status of the SPI module.
STBY is set to ‘1’ when SPI transfer cycle is started and is cleared to ‘0’ when the
transfer cycle is completed. This bit is controlled by hardware and is read only for user
software.

6

SPIC

SPI Transfer Complete Flag. This bit indicates the completion of a transfer cycle
when set to ‘1’. This bit must be cleared to ‘0’ by software once set. Setting this bit to
logic ‘1’ by software will cause an interrupt if enabled.

5

ROVR

Receive Overrun Flag. This bit indicates a receive overrun when set to ‘1’. This is
caused if two or more characters are received since the last read by the processor. The
newer data is lost. This bit must be cleared to ‘0’ by software once set. Setting this bit
to logic ‘1’ by software will cause an interrupt if enabled.

4

WCOL

Write Collision Flag. This bit indicates a write collision when set to ‘1’. This is caused
by attempting to write to the SPIB while a transfer cycle is in progress. . This bit must
be cleared to ‘0’ by software once set. Setting this bit to logic ‘1’ by software will cause
an interrupt if enabled.

3

MODF

Mode Fault.
This flag has no meaning in slave mode.

2

MODFE

Mode Fault Enable
This flag has no meaning in slave mode. In slave mode, the SSPICS pin always
functions as a slave select input signal to the SPI module, independent of the MODFE
bit.

1

MSTM

Master Mode Enable. When set to ‘1’, SPI module will operate as Master mode when
SPI module is enabled (SPIEN = 1). When set to ‘0’, SPI module will operate as Slave
mode when SPI module enabled (SPIEN = 1).

0

SPIEN

SPI Enable. Setting this bit to ‘1’, enables SPI Module. Setting this bit to ‘0’, disables
the SPI module.
