Is it really true?
Does the SSP interface has no interrupt for the transmit fifo empty event or for transfer empty? The SPI interface has, but I cannot use the SPI interface because the pins a used from SPIFI.

So in my distress I have to start a timer to get an interrupt at transfer end.
Or as somebody a better idea?
Please don't ask me why I use a transfer end interrupt. This is because a scan several SPI slave and I have to change the select signal by gpio.

Hi Dave,

I solved this problem by using one of the sgpio timers. Because I do not use the sgpio feature. The Timer gives me the interrupt for the end of transfer. The advantage of using the sgpio timer is that you have a prescaler and a timer for every bit. So it is very easy to set the timer for different bit rates.

Regards
Josef

The BUSY bit should be useful to determine whether the SSP is done transmitting. An interrupt can be generated when the FIFO is half empty or by a timer, then the BUSY bit can be checked to see if the SPI is done transmitting.
