18.1 USART Introduction: SPI Mode
In synchronous mode, the USART connects the MSP430 to an external
system via three or four pins: SIMO, SOMI, UCLK, and STE. SPI mode is
selected when the SYNC bit is set and the I2C bit is cleared.
SPI mode features include:
-
7- or 8-bit data length
-
3-pin and 4-pin SPI operation
-
Master or slave modes
-
Independent transmit and receive shift registers
-
Separate transmit and receive buffer registers
-
Selectable UCLK polarity and phase control
-
Programmable UCLK frequency in master mode
-
Independent interrupt capability for receive and transmit
Figure 18−1 shows the USART when configured for SPI mode.
