Note: 32-bit data equates to a buffer depth of X/4 = 1.
Note: All devices in the dsPIC33AK256MPS306 family include three SPI modules. On 64-pin devices, the SPI instance SPI2 can operate at maximum speed when dedicated pins are selected. The selection is done using the SPI2PIN bit (FDEVOPT[13]). If the bit for SPI2PIN is ‘1’, the PPS pin will be used. When SPI2PIN is ‘0’, the SPI signals are routed to dedicated pins.
