Chapter 12: SPI
The data and clock phase relationships are summarized in
. This table
summarizes the following for each setting of CPOL and CPHA.
•
When the first data bit is driven
•
When all other data bits are driven
•
When data is sampled
The definition of when an 8 bit transfer starts and stops is dependent on whether a device
is a master or a slave, and the setting of the CPHA variable.
When a device is a master, the start of a transfer is indicated by the master having a byte
of data that is ready to be transmitted. At this point, the master can activate the clock, and
begin the transfer. The transfer ends when the last clock cycle of the transfer is complete.
