14 SPIMSS (SPI1/I
2
S)
14.1 Overview
The SPIMSS peripheral provides either an SPI interface or an I
2
S interface. When set to SPI mode, the peripheral supports
SPI with a four-wire full-duplex serial bus operating as either a master or slave. When set to I
2
S mode, the peripheral
support full-duplex bi-directional I/O, a signal for Left/Right clock and a bit rate clock signal for master or slave
communications.
The SPIMSS (SPI1/I
2
S) peripheral supports Inter-IC Sound (I
2
S) protocol for 16-bit mono or stereo audio transfer to or from
an external I
2
S audio codec.

Figure 14-1 shows a high-level block diagram of the SPIMSS peripheral including the external interface signals, control unit,
receive and transmit FIFOs, and single shift register common to the transmit and receive data path for SPI or I
2
S operation.
The SPIMSS peripheral is configurable to operate as a SPI port or an I
2
S port. The same physical pins are used for SPI or I
2
S
operation. The reset default sets the SPIMSS to SPI operation. Enabling I
2
S, setting SPIMSS_I2S_CTRL . i2s_en to 1, results in
hardware using the pins as defined for I

S.
