All this talk about SPI devices, has me thinking about an interesting problem I have, that perhaps someone can suggest an easy solution for. I am not too familiar with SPI, I am just learning about it, however, I am pretty familiar with I2C at this point. I have a circuit that has a PIC18F252 as an I2C master, and it talks to several I2C slave devices. I have recently been presented with an SPI device that I need to interface to the same I2C master PIC. The SSP hardware on the PIC is pretty much I2C or SPI, and not both. Short of switching everything to SPI, what are my options? Is there some kind of I2C to SPI converter out there? I have poked around, and there doesn't appear to be a PIC with more than one SSP on it...perhaps there is one I am missing?
