SPI Slave mode

[eblot]

Hi,

From the doc, it seems that only SPI Master is supported with µPython, while the some HAL drivers, such as STM and the WiPy/CC3200 driver seem to support SPI slave mode, at least up to some point.

Is there any (current) plan to add support SPI slave mode, or is there anybody already working on this topic?

Thanks.

Hi,

Yes, there are plans, we have had some ideas on how the slave API should look like (and how it should work), but not ETA yet.

Cheers,
Daniel

Ok, thanks.

I'd be very interested in such a feature on the WiPy.

There was a productive discussion about a proposed API for I2C and SPI slave modes starting here: https://github.com/micropython/micropyt ... -151321274
It would probably be good to open a new issue specifically for that so the details don't get lost at the bottom of a _very_ long thread on the MicroPython API.
I could write it up, but probably not today.

Thanks for the pointer. What a long thread
