I have two controller in my design.
i plan to use SPI interface between the controllers

is there any other method to make the programmer life easy ?

Hello!

If the design is not finalized, then the best method to make the programmer life easy
is to replace both microcontrollers with a bigger one.

Hi,
Your possibilities include UART, SPI, I2C(TWI), One-Wire Interface, etc. Since there are only 2 controllers, I think UART would be easiest. There are UART modules in many controllers (you haven't told us which you are using), so programming it isn't too difficult, and it only requires 1 wire for unidirectional communication (master to slave) or 2 wires for bidirectional communication.

Hope this helps.
Tahmid.
