Custom SPI Device¶
Warning
Custom components are deprecated, not recommended for new configurations and will be removed from ESPHome in a future release. Please look at creating a real ESPHome component and “importing” it into your configuration with External Components.
You can find some basic documentation on creating your own components at Contributing to ESPHome.
Lots of devices communicate using the SPI protocol. If you want to integrate
a device into ESPHome that uses this protocol you can pretty much use almost
all Arduino-based code because the SPI library is also available in ESPHome.
See the other custom component guides for how to register components and make them publish values.
Please refer to the SPI library docs for more information.

void setup() override {
SPI.pins(SCK_PIN, MISO_PIN, MOSI_PIN, CS_PIN);
SPI.begin();
}
void loop() override {
SPI.beginTransaction(...)
SPI.write(0x42);
}
