&lt;p&gt;The &lt;code&gt;nrf_drv_spi&lt;/code&gt; driver is the standard 4-Wire SPI driver and I recommend using this as this driver is better documented, see &lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.sdk51.v10.0.0/hardware_driver_spi_master.html?cp=4_0_1_2_7_1#spi_master_using"&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; page on our Infocenter.&lt;/p&gt;
