Serial Peripheral Interface 1 and 2

The MC68VZ328 contains two serial peripheral interface (SPI) modules, SPI 1 and SPI 2. This chapter
describes the operation and programming of both SPI modules.
While SPI 2 operates as a master-mode-only SPI module, SPI 1 represents an enhanced version of the
SPI 2 design. Equipped with a data FIFO, SPI 1 may operate as a master- or slave-configurable SPI
interface module, allowing the MC68VZ328 to interface with either an external SPI master or an SPI slave
device.
