The NOSLVSEL bit only takeseffect in Slave mode. Only three pins, SPIn_CLK, SPIn_MISO0, and SPIn_MOSI0, are requiredto communicate with a SPI master. The SPIn_SS pin can be configured as a GPIO. When theNOSLVSEL bit is set to 1, the SPI slave will be ready to transmit/receive data after the GO_BUSYbit is set to 1. As the number of received bits meets the requirement which defined inTX_BIT_LEN (SPI_CNTRL[7:3]), the unit-transfer interrupt flag, IF (SPI_CNTRL[16]), will be set to1.Note: In Slave 3-wire mode, the SS_LTRIG (SPI_SSR[4]) should be set as 1.6.15.5.7 Dual I/O ModeThe SPI controller also supports Dual I/O transfer when setting the DUAL_IO_EN(SPI_CNTRL2[13]) to 1. Many general SPI flashes support Dual I/O transfer. The DUAL_IO_DIR(SPI_CNTRL2[12]) is used to define the direction of the transfer data. When the DUAL_IO_DIRbit is set to 1, the controller will send the data to external device. When the DUAL_IO_DIR bit isset to 0, the controller will read the data from the external device. This function supports 8, 16, 24,and 32-bit data transfer.The Dual I/O mode is not supported when the Slave 3-wire mode or the Byte Reorder function isenabled.If both the DUAL_IO_EN and DUAL_IO_DIR bits are set as 1, the SPIn_MOSI0 is the even bitdata output and the SPIn_MISO0 will be set as the odd bit data output. If the DUAL_IO_EN is setas 1 and DUAL_IO_DIR is set as 0, both the SPIn_MISO0 and SPIn_MOSI0 will be set as datainput ports.
