#158812 - issues
Responding to: ???'s previous message
but Amor is transfixed on using 2051's (perhaps stubborn) and I have tried to advise how much effort and complexity is needed for a SPI slave, without peripheral hardware support on board the micro.
We keep telling him that this is one of the most difficult things to do and he invariably reply "I am a fresh beginner, how do I do this?". For a raw beginner to insist on doing one of the most difficult tasks does seem to indicate that your paranthetic comment is correct.

On a side note... Have you ever used mode 0 successfully between two micro's?
nope, but the UART in all kinds of modes other than 0 between multiple processors (you need no transciever when the chips are on the same board).

This leads to a possible solution for the OP: does it have to be SPI, can't you just use the UARTS (in mode 1,2 or 3) which will be quite simple
