General Description
Master serial interface compatible with the popular SPI™ standard in both half-duplex and full-duplex modes. Features a simple command interface and permits multiple SPI slaves to be controlled directly from your FPGA, ASIC or SoC.
Key Design Features
– Fully SPI compliant
– Full-duplex or half-duplex operation
– Simple command interface
– Input and output FIFOs
– Supports up the 16 slave devices
– Configurable clock polarity (CPOL)
– Configurable clock phase (CPHA)
– Configurable clock frequency
– Typical FPGA comms up to 50 Mbits/s
Applications
– Inter-chip board-level communications
– Driving SPI slave devices from your FPGA, ASIC or SoC
– Serial comms at higher data rates than other protocols such as UART, I2C and USB1.x
