24.2.2 Microwire* Interface
Microwire is another common serial interface that is widely used to interconnect with
serial devices. The following table shows how the SSP signals can be mapped when
operating in Microwire mode.
24.2.3 Board Design Tip
Implement standard board design rules for low speed signals. When designing a board,
specify board impedances to match anywhere between 45 to 65 ohm.
