Note: During discontinuous communications, there is a 2 APB clock period delay between the
write operation to the SPI_DR register and BSY bit setting. As a consequence it is
mandatory to wait first until TXE is set and then until BSY is cleared after writing the last
data.
The correct disable procedure for certain receive-only modes is:
1. Interrupt the receive flow by disabling SPI (SPE=0) in the specific time window while
the last data frame is ongoing.
2. Wait until BSY=0 (the last data frame is processed).
3. Read received data.
Note: To stop a continuous receive sequence, a specific time window must be respected during
the reception of the last data frame. It starts when the first bit is sampled and ends before
the last bit transfer starts.
25.3.11 Communication using DMA (direct memory addressing)
To operate at its maximum speed and to facilitate the data register read/write process
required to avoid overrun, the SPI features a DMA capability, which implements a simple
request/acknowledge protocol.
A DMA access is requested when the TXE or RXNE enable bit in the SPIx_CR2 register is
set. Separate requests must be issued to the Tx and Rx buffers.
• In transmission, a DMA request is issued each time TXE is set to 1. The DMA then
writes to the SPIx_DR register.
• In reception, a DMA request is issued each time RXNE is set to 1. The DMA then reads
the SPIx_DR register.
Refer to Figure 249 and Figure 250 for a description of the DMA transmission and reception
waveforms.
When the SPI is used only to transmit data, it is possible to enable only the SPI Tx DMA
channel. In this case, the OVR flag is set because the data received is not read. When the
SPI is used only to receive data, it is possible to enable only the SPI Rx DMA channel.
In transmission mode, when the DMA has written all the data to be transmitted (the TCIF
flag is set in the DMA_ISR register), the BSY flag can be monitored to ensure that the SPI
communication is complete. This is required to avoid corrupting the last transmission before
disabling the SPI or entering the Stop mode. The software must first wait until TXE = 1 and
then until BSY = 0.
When starting communication using DMA, to prevent DMA channel management raising
error events, these steps must be followed in order:
1. Enable DMA Rx buffer in the RXDMAEN bit in the SPI_CR2 register, if DMA Rx is
used.
2. Enable DMA streams for Tx and Rx in DMA registers, if the streams are used.
3. Enable DMA Tx buffer in the TXDMAEN bit in the SPI_CR2 register, if DMA Tx is used.
4. Enable the SPI by setting the SPE bit.
