Jan 12, 2016 at 19:49 comment added TheFullMonteCarlo Thanks, Nick. Yes, I understand that SPI is just sort of do what works given your situation sort of standard. For my question, I don't think the fact that it is SPI is even relevant really. It could just be a generic open drain output through an isolator to a uC. Either way the Slave part is the Linear Tech LTC6804-2 and here is an SiLabs document relating to I2C discussing using a schottky to turn its push-pulls to open drains. silabs.com/Support%20Documents/TechnicalDocs/an352.pdf
Jan 12, 2016 at 19:41 comment added Nick Alexeev Could you post a link to the page that describes the Schottky diode approach? Could you post the part number of your slave device? Useful that it is, the SPI is more like a tradition than a standard: there is no single specification (unlike, say, I2C). For example, open drain MISO is not a part of the "core" SPI tradition. As a result, compatibility of each component on the SPI bus has to be examined. Which is what you're doing.
