PRODUCTION DATA
The transmit FIFO is a 16-bit-wide, 8-location-deep, first-in, first-out memory buffer. The CPU writes data to the FIFO through the SSI Data (SSIDR) register, and data is stored in the FIFO until the data is read out by the transmission logic. When configured as a master or a slave, parallel data is written into the transmit FIFO before serial conversion and transmission to the attached slave or master, respectively, through the SSITx pin.
In slave mode, the SSI transmits data each time the master initiates a transaction. If the transmit FIFO is empty and the master initiates a transaction, the slave transmits the 8th most recent value in the transmit FIFO. If less than eight values have been written to the transmit FIFO since the SSI module clock was enabled using the SSI bit in the RGCG1 register, then "0" is transmitted. Care should be taken to ensure that valid data is in the FIFO as needed. The SSI can be configured to generate an interrupt or an µDMA request when the FIFO is empty.
