SPI Engine
SPI Engine is a highly flexible and powerful SPI controller framework. It consist out of multiple sub-modules which communicate over well defined interfaces. This allows a high degree of flexibility and re-usability while at the same time staying highly customizable and easily extensible.
The core component of the SPI Engine framework is a lean but powerful fully programmable execution module, which implements the SPI bus control logic. The SPI Engine execution module is controlled by a command stream which is generated by a separate module. Different command stream master modules are available and can be used depending on the system requirements. For example a software controlled memory mapped command stream offers high flexibility, while a offload core which executes a pre-programmed command stream when triggered by an external event allows for very low latency response times. By using a SPI Engine interconnect it is possible to connect multiple command stream master modules to a SPI Engine execution module.
Sub-modules
- Execution Module: Main module which processes a SPI engine command stream and implements the SPI bus interface logic
- AXI Interface Module: Memory mapped software accessible interface to a SPI Engine command stream and/or offload cores
- Offload Module: Stores a SPI Engine command stream, execution is triggered by an external event
- Interconnect Module: Connects multiple SPI Engine command streams to a SPI Engine execution module
Interfaces
- SPI Engine Control Interface: SPI Engine command stream
- SPI Engine Offload Control Interface: Program the command stream stored in a offload module
- SPI Bus Interface: Low-level SPI bus interface
Software
- Linux Driver: Linux driver for the SPI Engine framework
- SPI Engine Instruction Format: Overview of the SPI Engine Instruction format
