13.3.2.2 Use Model 2: Interfacing Any SPI Slave Device Using MSS SPI Routing Through Fabric

The external SPI slave devices such as serial display device can be interfaced using SmartFusion 2 MSS SPI routing through fabric ports. The fabric ports can be brought out to the GPIO header to interface the SPI slave device with SmartFusion 2 device. Follow the instructions provided in the 13.3.1 Design Flow to configure SPI_0 with connection type fabric in the application. Double click IO- Constraints under Edit Constraints in the Libero SoC design flow window to configure the appropriate GPIO header pin numbers for MSS SPI_0 fabric ports to brought out the SPI signals to interface the SPI slave device with SmartFusion 2 Device.
