AC CHARACTERISTICSStandard Operating Conditions: VDDIO = AVDD = VDD 1.62V to 3.63V (unless otherwise stated)

Operating Temperature:

-40°C ≤ TA ≤ +85°C for Industrial

Param. No.SymbolCharacteristics(1)Min.Typ.Max.UnitsConditions
MSP_1FSCKSCK Frequency8MHzTransmitter mode, CTRLB.RXEN = 0,

CLOAD = 30 pF(max).

1/(2*(TMIS+NOTE2_TV)(2)Full Duplex Transmit and Receive mode, CLOAD = 30 pF(max).

The max SPI speed of the MCU is partially dependent on the external SPI device performance characteristics.

Faster speeds than the loop- back mode above may therefore be possible using the formula.
