You can either use <a href="https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/1.7.1/zephyr/reference/peripherals/spi.html#c.spi_is_ready">Zephyrs interface</a> or the <a href="https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/nrfx/blob/v2.5.0/hal/nrf_spim.h">nrfx drivers</a> for that.</p> <p lang="en-GB">Regards,</p> <p lang="en-GB">Markus</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
