&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;TWI is legacy TWI Master peripheral without support for EasyDMA. When using this, the CPU needs to update the data pointer for each byte being transmitted/received.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;TWIM is the more modern TWI Master peripheral with EasyDMA support, allowing you to transfer larger blocks of data directly from/to RAM, without any CPU intervention.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;TWIS is TWI slave peripheral, used when you have an external master that should be able to read/write data from/to the nRF. This also supports EasyDMA.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For our use-case, I would recommend using the TWIM API.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;Jørgen&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
