Editing SPI

SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) is a serial communication link used in [[VSD-A]] and [[VSD-E and VSD-XE]] drives. SPI is used to set drive parameters and it also can be used for control with [[SimpleMotion]] library.

-==VSD SPI bus key features==
-Implementation of VSD SPI bus:
-*All commands are 32 bit packets:
-**8 bit command ID
-**16 bit command parameter
-**8 bit CRC error checking
-*By sending one command, drive responds simultaneously with 32 bit return data packet:
-**8 bit status bits (usually not needed by application)
-**16 bit return data
-**8 bit CRC error checking
-*Command rate up to 2500 commands/s (80 kbit/s)
-==Using VSD SPI==
-===With SimpleMotion library===
-[[SimpleMotion library]] communicates to [[VSD-E and VSD-XE]] drives via SPI bus. The phyiscal transfer link between PC and VSD drive is [http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documents/DataSheets/Cables/DS_TTL-232R_CABLES.pdf FTDI TTL232R USB serial adapter].
-===From low level hardware===
-SPI bus on VSD drives requires 3 data wires, ground and 3-5 VDC supply (5 wires total):
-* SCLK - clock signal
-* MISO - master in, slave out
-* MOSI - master out, slave in
-VSD drive is the slave device.
-SPI signals are relatively easy to generate with any programmable device with digital I/O's such as microcontrollers. [[SimpleMotion]] source code can be ported on many platforms including MCU's.
