Questions about SPI interface.
Feb 01st, 2012, 1:56pm
 
I am going to design a project which uses SPI interface, which has 4 signals: SS* SCLK MISO MOSI. To my knowledge,
SS*, SCLK and MOSI are input singal and MISO is output signals. I have two questions:

1)
I am told the SPI is 25MHz. Is 25MHz too high for this SPI interface? What's the normal frequency range for SPI.

2)
In order to generate the digital output signal (MISO), I need clock signal. Is it possible to directly use SCLK to generate
this digital output signal (MISO)

Thank you!

You must have the spec. And the timing diagram is already defined in that spec. Then it is not difficult.

If your chips work fine with 25MHz SCLK, it is OK.

Sure MISO signal can be clocked out by SCLK.

You should use sclk as clock reference in transmition and reception.
