5.4.4 SPI Read Data
The SPI Master may read data when available by sending the Read Data command.
Read Data Command
Table 16. SPI Read Data Command
Response
Length (2 Octets) – This tells the Master the number of octets that are waiting to be transmitted
to the Master.
Data (N Octets, N being the Length) – The data will be sent to the Master immediately after the
Length is sent.
Figure 14. Read Data Timing Diagram
Note:
• Data is transferred as long as /SS is asserted. Flow control for
transmissions from the Slave to the Master may be implemented by
having the Master assert and de-assert the /SS line. If /SS is de-
asserted, the transmission from the Slave will be halted, and the next
RDATA command will cause the Slave to continue transmitting data
starting at the byte after the byte on which the previous transmission
was halted
Command Length Value (0x00)
RDATA 1 Octet Bit 7 = 0
Bit 6 = 0
Bits 5:0 = 0 (reserved, must set to 0)
