Use SPI and SSP

Is it possible to use SPI and SSP at the same time?

Because, I get a signal from an ADC on the SPI interface and I have to store it on a SD-Card which, on the LPC2148 board, is connected to the SSP Controller. In my opinion these are 2 different things, so it should work.

If it works together, do I have to make the same settings, like clock, transfer bits etc.

Thanks

You can use them both at the same time and have totally different settings for each. Keep in mind that the SSP has a significantly higher bandwidth capacity than SPI0 (I think it was around 30 Mbps for SSP and 7.5 Mbps for SPI0…I did the calculation in a post on this forum somewhere).
