3.7. Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
The PICO-IMX6UL-EMMC features an Enhanced Configurable Serial Peripheral Interface (ECSPI)
full-duplex, synchronous, four-wire serial communication block.
The following main features are supported:
Full-duplex synchronous serial interface
Master/Slave configurable
Four Chip Select (SS) signals to support multiple peripherals
Transfer continuation function allows unlimited length data transfers
32-bit wide by 64-entry FIFO for both transmit and receive data
Polarity and phase of the Chip Select (SS) and SPI Clock (SCLK) are configurable
Direct Memory Access (DMA) support
Max operation frequency up to the reference clock frequency.
For additional details, please refer to the “Enhanced Configurable SPI (ECSPI)” chapter of the
“i.MX6Ultralite Application Processor Reference Manual”.
