Data Modes

• Bit 7 – SPIF: SPI Interrupt Flag
When a serial transfer is complete, the SPIF Flag is set. An interrupt is generated if SPIE in
SPCR is set and global interrupts are enabled. If SS is an input and is driven low when the SPI is
in Master mode, this will also set the SPIF Flag. SPIF is cleared by hardware when executing the
corresponding interrupt Handling Vector. Alternatively, the SPIF bit is cleared by first reading the
SPI Status Register with SPIF set, then accessing the SPI Data Register (SPDR).
• Bit 6 – WCOL: Write COLlision Flag
The WCOL bit is set if the SPI Data Register (SPDR) is written during a data transfer. The
WCOL bit (and the SPIF bit) are cleared by first reading the SPI Status Register with WCOL set,
and then accessing the SPI Data Register.
• Bit 5..1 – Res: Reserved Bits
These bits are reserved bits in the ATmega8 and will always read as zero.
• Bit 0 – SPI2X: Double SPI Speed Bit
When this bit is written logic one the SPI speed (SCK Frequency) will be doubled when the SPI
is in Master mode (see
2 CPU clock periods. When the SPI is configured as Slave, the SPI is only guaranteed to work at

The SPI interface on the ATmega8 is also used for Program memory and EEPROM download-
ing or uploading. See
The SPI Data Register is a Read/Write Register used for data transfer between the Register File
and the SPI Shift Register. Writing to the register initiates data transmission. Reading the regis-
ter causes the Shift Register Receive buffer to be read.
There are four combinations of SCK phase and polarity with respect to serial data, which are
determined by control bits CPHA and CPOL. The SPI data transfer formats are shown in

edges of the SCK signal, ensuring sufficient time for data signals to stabilize. This is clearly seen
