Synchronous Serial Port (SSP)
27.1
Introduction
The SSP block is an IP provided by ARM (PL022 “PrimeCell® Synchronous Serial Port”).
Additional details about its functional blocks may be found in “ARM PrimeCell® Synchronous
Serial Port (PL022) Technical Reference Manual”.
27.2
Features
• The SSP is a master or slave interface that enables synchronous serial communication with
slave or master peripherals having one of the following:
A MOTOROLA SPI-compatible interface
A TEXAS INSTRUMENTS synchronous serial interface
A National Semiconductor MICROWIRE® interface.
• The SPI interface operates as a master or slave interface. It supports bit rates up to 2 MHz
and higher in both master and slave configurations. The SPI has the following features:
Parallel-to-serial conversion on data written to an internal 16-bit wide, 8-
location deep transmit FIFO
Serial-to-parallel conversion on received data, buffering it in a 16-bit wide, 8-
location deep receive FIFO
Programmable data frame size from 4 to 16 bits
Programmable clock bit rate and prescaler. The input clock may be divided by a
factor of 2 to 254 in steps of two to provide the serial output clock
Programmable clock phase and polarity.
