Function
Data may not be transmitted correctly from the eUSCI when operating in SPI 4-pin master
mode with UCSTEM = 0
Description
When the eUSCI is used in SPI 4-pin master mode with UCSTEM = 0 (STE pin used as
an input to prevent conflicts with other SPI masters), data that is moved into UCxTXBUF
while the UCxSTE input is in the inactive state may not be transmitted correctly. If the
eUSCI is used with UCSTEM = 1 (STE pin used to output an enable signal), data is
transmitted correctly.
Workaround
When using the STE pin in conflict prevention mode (UCSTEM = 0), only move data
into UCxTXBUF when UCxSTE is in the active state. If an active transfer is aborted
by UCxSTE transitioning to the master-inactive state, the data must be rewritten into
UCxTXBUF to be transferred when UCxSTE transitions back to the master-active state.
