SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A SERIAL PERIPHERAL INTERFACE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18201214 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A SERIAL PERIPHERAL INTERFACE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system and method for allowing two devices connected to a SPI bus to function as master devices without conflicts or race conditions in controlling the bus.

  • Enables two devices on a SPI bus to operate as master devices without collisions or race conditions.
  • Solves the problem of conflicting control over the SPI bus between the two devices.
  • Prevents race conditions where both devices try to gain control of the SPI bus simultaneously.
  • Provides a mechanism for coordinating and managing the control of the SPI bus between the two devices.
  • Ensures efficient and reliable communication between the devices on the SPI bus.


Original Abstract Submitted

A system and method are provided to enable first and second devices coupled to a SPI bus to operate as master devices on the SPI bus without collisions between the two devices or race conditions with respect to obtaining control over the SPI bus.
