SPI bus interface

The LSM6DSO SPI is a bus slave. The SPI allows writing and reading the registers of the device.

The serial interface communicates to the application using 4 wires: CS, SPC, SDI and SDO.

CS is the serial port enable and it is controlled by the SPI master. It goes low at the start of the transmission and

goes back high at the end. SPC is the serial port clock and it is controlled by the SPI master. It is stopped high

when CS is high (no transmission). SDI and SDO are, respectively, the serial port data input and output. Those

lines are driven at the falling edge of SPC and should be captured at the rising edge of SPC.

Both the read register and write register commands are completed in 16 clock pulses or in multiples of 8 in case

of multiple read/write bytes. Bit duration is the time between two falling edges of SPC. The first bit (bit 0) starts at

the first falling edge of SPC after the falling edge of CS while the last bit (bit 15, bit 23, ...) starts at the last falling

edge of SPC just before the rising edge of CS.

bit 0: RW bit. When 0, the data DI(7:0) is written into the device. When 1, the data DO(7:0) from the device is

read. In latter case, the chip will drive SDO at the start of bit 8.

bit 1-7: address AD(6:0). This is the address field of the indexed register.

bit 8-15: data DI(7:0) (write mode). This is the data that is written into the device (MSb first).

bit 8-15: data DO(7:0) (read mode). This is the data that is read from the device (MSb first).

In multiple read/write commands further blocks of 8 clock periods will be added. When the CTRL3_C (12h)

(IF_INC) bit is ‘0’, the address used to read/write data remains the same for every block. When the CTRL3_C

(12h) (IF_INC) bit is ‘1’, the address used to read/write data is increased at every block.

The function and the behavior of SDI and SDO remain unchanged.

The SPI Read command is performed with 16 clock pulses. A multiple byte read command is performed by

adding blocks of 8 clock pulses to the previous one.

bit 0: READ bit. The value is 1.

bit 1-7: address AD(6:0). This is the address field of the indexed register.

bit 8-15: data DO(7:0) (read mode). This is the data that will be read from the device (MSb first).

bit 16-...: data DO(...-8). Further data in multiple byte reads.
