7.5.1.1 SPI Format

SPI Format - with Parity

The SDI input data word is 24 bits long and consists of the following format:

  • 1 read or write bit, W (bit B16)
  • 6 address bits, A (bits B22 through B17)
  • Parity bit, P (bit B23)
  • 15 data bits with 1 parity bit, D (bits B15 through B0)

The SDO output data word is 24 bits long. The most significant bits are status bits and the least significant 16 bits are the data content of the register being accessed.

The details of the bits used in SPI frame format are detailed below.

Read/Write Bit (R/W): R/W (W0) bit set to 0b indicates a SPI write transaction. For a SPI read operation, R/W bit needs to be set to 1b.

Address Bits (A): A SPI secondary device takes a 6-bit register address.

Parity Bit (P): Both header and data fields of a SPI input data frame include a parity bit for single bit error detection - in Table 7-7, B23 is parity bit for the header field, while B15 is the parity bit for the data field. The parity scheme used is even parity - the number of ones in a block of 16-bits (including the parity bit) is even. Data will be written to the internal registers only if the parity check is successful. Parity checks can be enabled or disabled by configuring the SPI_PEN bit of SYS_CTRL register. Parity checks are disabled by default.

Note: Though parity checks are disabled by default, TI recommends enabling parity checks to safeguard against single-bit errors.
