2.2.2 SPI Applications

SPI is one of the most common interfaces due to its simple protocol, relatively high speeds, and full duplex communication. One common application of SPI in the automotive sector is within the automotive head unit. It enables communication between the applications processor and external media. It also allows the applications processor to communicate with other peripherals such as atmospheric sensors within the car.
