Figure 20-10. Clearing SPRF When OVRF Interrupt Is Not Enabled
20.7.2 Mode Fault Error
Setting the SPMSTR bit selects master mode and configures the SPSCK and MOSI pins as outputs and
the MISO pin as an input. Clearing SPMSTR selects slave mode and configures the SPSCK and MOSI
pins as inputs and the MISO pin as an output. The mode fault bit, MODF, becomes set any time the state
of the slave select pin, SS, is inconsistent with the mode selected by SPMSTR.
To prevent SPI pin contention and damage to the MCU, a mode fault error occurs if:
The SS pin of a slave SPI goes high during a transmission
The SS pin of a master SPI goes low at any time
For the MODF flag to be set, the mode fault error enable bit (MODFEN) must be set. Clearing the
MODFEN bit does not clear the MODF flag but does prevent MODF from being set again after MODF is
cleared.
MODF generates a receiver/error CPU interrupt request if the error interrupt enable bit (ERRIE) is also
set. The SPRF, MODF, and OVRF interrupts share the same CPU interrupt vector.
(See Figure 20-11.)It is not possible to enable MODF or OVRF individually to generate a receiver/error CPU interrupt request.
However, leaving MODFEN low prevents MODF from being set.
In a master SPI with the mode fault enable bit (MODFEN) set, the mode fault flag (MODF) is set if SS
goes to logic 0. A mode fault in a master SPI causes the following events to occur:
If ERRIE = 1, the SPI generates an SPI receiver/error CPU interrupt request.
The SPE bit is cleared.
The SPTE bit is set.
The SPI state counter is cleared.
The data direction register of the shared I/O port regains control of port drivers.
