Figure 13. Multi-word SPI packet example
shows a 2 word SPI transfer example, and how the READ/WRITE function is called twice to do
each individual word transfer. This is helpful for cutting down on the SPI overhead when transferring a
CAN message to or from the TCAN4550-Q1, and minimize the maximum SPI frequency required.
