The Universal Synchronous and Asynchronous serial Receiver and Transmitter (USART) can be
set to a master SPI compliant mode of operation. Setting both UMSELn1:0 bits to one enables
the USART in Master SPI Mode (MSPIM) logic. In this mode of operation the SPI master control
logic takes direct control over the USART resources. These resources include the transmitter
and receiver shift register and buffers, and the baud rate generator. The parity generator and
checker, the data and clock recovery logic, and the RX and TX control logic is disabled. The
USART RX and TX control logic is replaced by a common SPI transfer control logic. However,
the pin control logic and interrupt generation logic is identical in both modes of operation.
The I/O register locations are the same in both modes. However, some of the functionality of the
control registers changes when using MSPIM.
The Clock Generation logic generates the base clock for the Transmitter and Receiver. For
USART MSPIM mode of operation only internal clock generation (i.e. master operation) is sup-
ported. The Data Direction Register for the XCKn pin (DDR_XCKn) must therefore be set to one
(i.e. as output) for the USART in MSPIM to operate correctly. Preferably the DDR_XCKn should
be set up before the USART in MSPIM is enabled (i.e. TXENn and RXENn bit set to one).
The internal clock generation used in MSPIM mode is identical to the USART synchronous mas-
ter mode. The baud rate or UBRRn setting can therefore be calculated using the same
equations, see
Table 19-1.
