Which SPI Host Adapters Work Best for Development and Verification?
Summary
Based on the article How Do I Set Up SDC or MMC Cards in SPI Mode to Verify Files were Successfully Programmed?, it looks like the Cheetah adapter would do a better job for me, at least for the verification part of the project. For example, you can write two 8-bit bytes, AB CD, in the transaction log of Control Center Serial Software, and submit send: "assert SS, send AB CD, deassert SS". There will be gaps in the middle, but it is still a single transaction with slave select (SS) asserted at the beginning and de-asserted at the end – as specified in your requirements. For more information, please refer to the Signaling Characteristics section in the Aardvark I2C/SPI Host Adapter User Manual.
