Supports SPI
RAK833 refer Semtech's reference design of SX1301, communicates with host through SPI transfer interface.
An SPI interface is provided on the PCIe_SCK, PCIe_MISO, PCIe_MOSI, PCIe_CSN, PCIe_RST (Reset) pins of the system connector.
The SPI interface gives access to the configuration register of SX1301 via a synchronous full-duplex protocol. Only the slave side is implemented.
