SPI
Frequency
Software SPI algorithm:
•
SLOW SPI: 0 – 490.2 kHz (user selectable)
•
MEDIUM SPI: 0 – 490.2 kHz (user selectable)
( SPI speeds are estimations only due to uneven mark/space
ratio and non-continuous waveforms)
Hardware SPI algorithm (requires firmware 3.04 or
greater):
•
SLOW SPI: 115.2 kHz to 921.6 kHz (user selectable)
•
FAST SPI: 115.2 kHz to 921.6 kHz (user selectable)
18 Target UART Speed
This is the Communications Speed (BAUD rate) from the
programmer to the Target Device when communicating via a
Boot Loader. The BAUD rate is configurable from 1,200 to 115
kBaud. This settings is completely independent from the BAUD
rate settings for the PC communicating with the programmer.
