Transmit-only procedure (BIDIMODE=0 RXONLY=0)
In this mode, the procedure can be reduced as described below and the BSY bit can be
used to wait until the completion of the transmission (see
Figure 255 and Figure 256).
1. Enable the SPI by setting the SPE bit to 1.
2. Write the first data item to send into the SPI_DR register (this clears the TXE bit).
3. Wait until TXE=1 and write the next data item to be transmitted. Repeat this step for
each data item to be transmitted.
4. After writing the last data item into the SPI_DR register, wait until TXE=1, then wait until
BSY=0, this indicates that the transmission of the last data is complete.
This procedure can be also implemented using dedicated interrupt subroutines launched at
each rising edge of the TXE flag.
Note: During discontinuous communications, there is a 2 APB clock period delay between the
write operation to SPI_DR and the BSY bit setting. As a consequence, in transmit-only
mode, it is mandatory to wait first until TXE is set and then until BSY is cleared after writing
the last data.
After transmitting two data items in transmit-only mode, the OVR flag is set in the SPI_SR
register since the received data are never read.
