SPI interface
It is a serial interface for peripheral devices. It is one of the most frequently used communication interfaces between microprocessor systems and peripherals such as: ADC/DAC converters,RTCchips,EEPROM,flash memory, etc.Communication through SPI is done via three lines. Additional CS line is used toactivate selected peripheral system.
Name | Description |

MISO | Data from the peripheral system |
MOSI | Data for the peripheral system |
SCLK | Clock signal |
CS | Signal informing the system about the start of transmission |
I2C interface
It's serial and bidirectionalThe busused to transmit data in electronic devices. It has a 4-pin input.
