Can same pins of CSR1010 be connected to an I2C Slave and 3-pin SPI (CS#, SCL, SDIO) Slave at the same time?

Thanks!

Since I2C devices listen all the time to I2C SDA line , if you SPI will send data on this line , the I2C sensor may see its address and read the SPI data as a command. 

To close the I2C sensor power will impose a poll down the load on PIO and SPI lines may not work. 

My offer, use other PIO lines for SPI

You can  my Skype nissim.test if you like.

Thanks for the clarification Dr. Nissim. I was planning to use SPI as I had those ICs in stock. But now to keep things simple, I have decided to use the I2C version of the same IC categary instead of SPI.

Thanks!

CSR8670, When I saw the block diagram, I found i2c/SPI interface, not dedicated SPI debug pins. How can I set up PIO pins when I use SPI communication interface without dedicated SPI debug port? 

 

Please help me.
