SPI
begin()
Initializes the SPI bus by setting SCK, MOSI, and a user-specified slave-select pin to outputs, MISO to input. SCK is pulled either high or low depending on the configured SPI data mode (default high for SPI_MODE3
). Slave-select is pulled high.
Note: The SPI firmware ONLY initializes the user-specified slave-select pin as an OUTPUT
. The user's code must control the slave-select pin with digitalWrite()
before and after each SPI transfer for the desired SPI slave device. Calling SPI.end()
does NOT reset the pin mode of the SPI pins.
// SYNTAX
SPI.begin(ss);
SPI1.begin(ss);
// Example with no SS pin configured:
SPI.begin(PIN_INVALID);
Where, the parameter ss
is the SPI
device slave-select pin to initialize. The default SS pin varies by port and device, see above.
// Example using SPI1, with D5 as the SS pin:
SPI1.begin();
// or
SPI1.begin(D5);
