Spi Interface In An Fpga In Vhdl And Verilog

Become an expert at SPI communication, get working code with this course!

What you'll learn

Basics of Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)

VHDL and Verilog FPGA working code of SPI interface

Testbench (code simulations)

Ambient Light Sensor application of SPI using an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC)

Requirements

Basic familiarity with FPGAs

Experience with EITHER Verilog or VHDL, I do both!

Description

This course will take you through the basics of SPI communication.  I will explain how the interface works, what each signal does, and talk about how master to slave communication is possible.  I then go through both the VHDL and Verilog code for an SPI Master controller and show how to communicate with a peripheral device.
