24.5.2. SPSR – SPI Status Register
When using the I/O specific commands IN and OUT, the I/O addresses 0x00 - 0x3F must be used. When
addressing I/O Registers as data space using LD and ST instructions, 0x20 must be added to these offset
addresses. The device is a complex microcontroller with more peripheral units than can be supported
within the 64 location reserved in Opcode for the IN and OUT instructions. For the Extended I/O space
from 0x60 in SRAM, only the ST/STS/STD and LD/LDS/LDD instructions can be used.

Bit 7 – SPIF: SPI Interrupt Flag
When a serial transfer is complete, the SPIF Flag is set. An interrupt is generated if SPIE in SPCR is set
and global interrupts are enabled. If SS is an input and is driven low when the SPI is in Master mode, this
will also set the SPIF Flag. SPIF is cleared by hardware when executing the corresponding interrupt
handling vector. Alternatively, the SPIF bit is cleared by first reading the SPI Status Register with SPIF
set, then accessing the SPI Data Register (SPDR).
Bit 6 – WCOL: Write Collision Flag
The WCOL bit is set if the SPI Data Register (SPDR) is written during a data transfer. The WCOL bit (and
the SPIF bit) are cleared by first reading the SPI Status Register with WCOL set, and then accessing the
SPI Data Register.
Bit 0 – SPI2X: Double SPI Speed Bit
When this bit is written logic one the SPI speed (SCK Frequency) will be doubled when the SPI is in
Master mode (refer to Table 24-5 Relationship between SCK and Oscillator Frequency on page 242).
This means that the minimum SCK period will be two CPU clock periods. When the SPI is configured as
Slave, the SPI is only guaranteed to work at f
osc
/4 or lower.
The SPI interface on the ATmega64A is also used for program memory and EEPROM downloading or
uploading. Refer to section Serial Downloading in Memory Programming for serial programming and
verification.
