There are two register interfaces: the old NDS/DSi one and an alternative faster interface introduced with the 3DS.

To toggle between those interfaces, use the CFG11_SPI_CNT register.

SPI_CNT[edit]

This is the old NDS/DSi SPI interface.

Bits Name
0-1 Baudrate (0=4MHz, 1=2MHz, 2=1MHz, 3=512KHz)
2-6 This was added with 3DS.
7 Busy Flag (0=Ready, 1=Busy) (presumably Read-only)
8-9 Device Select (0=Powerman., 1=Firmware, 2=Touchscreen)
10 Transfer Size (0=8bit/Normal, 1=16bit/Bugged)
11 Chipselect Hold (0=Deselect after transfer, 1=Keep selected)
12-13 Not used (Zero)
14 Interrupt Request (0=Disable, 1=Enable)
15 SPI Bus Enable (0=Disable, 1=Enable)

NSPI_CNT[edit]

This is an alternative faster interface introduced with the 3DS.

Bits Name
0-2 Clock
6-7 Device select
12 Bus mode (0 = 1 bit, 1 = 4 bit)
13 Transfer direction (0 = read, 1 = write)
15 1 = Busy/enable
Device id Bus Device select Clock
0 3 0 2
1, 2 3 1, 2 ?, ?
3 1 0 5
4, 5 1 1, 2 ?, ?
6 2 0 ?

NSPI_DONE[edit]

BIT DESCRIPTION
0 Chip select
1-31 Unused

Contains 1 when the SPI slave is selected. A 0 is written here on transfer end to deselect the slave.

NSPI_BLKLEN[edit]

BIT DESCRIPTION
0-20 Transfer size
21-31 Unused

The number of bytes to be sent/read is written to this register.

NSPI_FIFO[edit]

BIT DESCRIPTION
0-31 Data

32-bit FIFO for reading/writing the SPI payload. This FIFO is one way (half-duplex).

NSPI_STATUS[edit]

BIT DESCRIPTION
0 FIFO full (0 = not full, 1 = full)
1-31 Unused

At transfer start and every 32 bytes the FIFO becomes busy.

NSPI_AUTOPOLL[edit]

BIT DESCRIPTION
0-7 Command
16-19 Timeout (Tries = 31<<Clock (from NSPI_CNT) + Timeout)
24-26 Bit offset (0-7)
30 Poll for a set or unset bit
31 1 = Enable/Busy

This automatically sends a command to the device and compares the specified bit in the response with bit 30 until it matches or a timeout occurs.

NSPI_INT_MASK[edit]

BIT DESCRIPTION
0 Transfer finished (1 = disabled)
1 Autopoll success (1 = disabled)
2 Autopoll timeout (1 = disabled)

NSPI_INT_STAT[edit]

BIT DESCRIPTION
0 Transfer finished (also fires on each autopoll try?)
1 Autopoll success
2 Autopoll timeout

Interrupt ID 0x24, 0x56 or 0x57 (depending on the bus) is fired when any of the bits change to 1 except for interrupts masked in NSPI_INT_MASK. Writing 1 to a bit in this register aknowledges the interrupt.
