32-bit Arm Cortex-M0+ microcontroller
12.7 SPI interfaces
The actual SPI bit rate depends on the delays introduced by the external trace, the
external device, system clock (CCLK), and capacitive loading. Excluding delays
introduced by external device and PCB, the maximum supported bit rate for SPI master
mode is 30 Mbit/s, and the maximum supported bit rate for SPI slave mode is 1/(2 x 26 ns)
= 19 Mbit/s at 3.0v VDD 3.6v and 1/(2 x 42 ns) = 12 Mbit/s at 1.8v VDD < 3.0v.
Remark: SPI functions can be assigned to all digital pins. The characteristics are valid for
all digital pins except the open-drain pins PIO0_10 and PIO0_11.
