1 | SPI Chip Select behavior: |
2 | ||
3 | With the Blackfin on-chip SPI peripheral, there is some logic tied to the CPHA | |
4 | bit whether the Slave Select Line is controlled by hardware (CPHA=0) or | |
5 | controlled by software (CPHA=1). However, the Linux SPI bus driver assumes that | |
6 | the Slave Select is always under software control and being asserted during | |
7 | the entire SPI transfer. - And not just bits_per_word duration. | |
8 | ||
9 | In most cases you can utilize SPI MODE_3 instead of MODE_0 to work-around this | |
10 | behavior. If your SPI slave device in question requires SPI MODE_0 or MODE_2 | |
11 | timing, you can utilize the GPIO controlled SPI Slave Select option instead. | |
12 | ||
13 | You can even use the same pin whose peripheral role is a SSEL, | |
14 | but use it as a GPIO instead. |
