CONFIG_SPI_NRFX_RAM_BUFFER_SIZE

Size of RAM buffers for SPIM peripherals

Type: int

Help

SPIM peripherals cannot transmit data directly from flash. Therefore,
a buffer in RAM needs to be provided for each instance of SPI driver
using SPIM peripheral, so that the driver can copy there a chunk of
data from flash and transmit it.
The size is specified in bytes. A size of 0 means that this feature
should be disabled, and the application must then take care of not
supplying buffers located in flash to the driver, otherwise such
transfers will fail.

Direct dependencies
