Using The MCP3550/1/3 with

Microcontroller (MCU) SPI Ports

It is required that the microcontroller SPI port be config-

ured to clock out data on the falling edge of clock and

latch data in on the rising edge. Figure 5-6 depicts the

operation shown in SPI mode 1,1, which requires that

the SCK from the MCU idles in the High state, while

Figure 5-7 shows the similar case of SPI Mode 0,0,

where the clock idles in the Low state. The waveforms

in the figures are examples of an MCU operating the

SPI port in 8-bit mode, and the MCP3550/1/3 devices

do not require data in 8-bit groups.

In SPI mode 1,1, data is read using only 24 clocks or

three byte transfers. The data ready bit must be read

by testing the SDO/RDY line prior to a falling edge of

the clock.

In SPI mode 0,0, data is read using 25 clocks or four

byte transfers. Please note that the data ready bit is

included in the transfer as the first bit in this mode.
