SPI mode
SDO (Serial data out) and SDI (serial data in) pins [8-bit serial data synchronously out and simultaneously synchronously in] Serial clock SCK pin synchronising clock output SCK is set as input in slave mode An optional 4th signal may be used as SS (Slave select, when 0 then functions SPI functions as slave)

Port C Pins RC3, 4, and 5

RC3 also as synchronous serial clock in or clock Out for SPI or I2C modes. Capture 2 input or Compare 2 output or PWM2 output RC4 also as synchronous serial for SPI data in or I2C data-in/data-out modes. RC5 also as synchronous serial for data out in SPI mode

Summary

We learnt
Master Synchronous Serial Port Two modes: SPI and I2C SPI mode uses SDI, SDO, SCLK pins and optional SS I2C mode uses SDA, SCL pins
