10 years ago --- Quote Start --- You can always export the Avalon interface and control the SPI core from your own RTL, thus avoiding any 'software intervention' --- Quote End --- Hm... Should I implement an Avalon interface in RTL, which "write" to SPI core in order to initialize the SPI transaction? Actually the SPI should be connected to an external device and should read a data from it every 10msec... So, my original purpose was to create some timer/counter, which gives a trigger to SPI every 10msec... Now I understand I need to create some RTL block, which not only gives such trigger, but also implement an Avalon interface and "write" to one of the SPI registers in order to start a transaction... Is that true?
