TXINV — Transmit Inversion Bit
This read/write bit reverses the polarity of transmitted data. Reset clears the
TXINV bit.
1 = Transmitter output inverted
0 = Transmitter output not inverted
NOTE:
Setting the TXINV bit inverts all transmitted values, including idle, break, start, and
stop bits.
M — Mode (Character Length) Bit
This read/write bit determines whether SCI characters are eight or nine bits
long. See
Table 13-5
.
The ninth bit can serve as an extra stop bit, as a receiver
wakeup signal, or as a parity bit. Reset clears the M bit.
1 = 9-bit SCI characters
0 = 8-bit SCI characters
WAKE — Wakeup Condition Bit
This read/write bit determines which condition wakes up the SCI: a logic 1
(address mark) in the most significant bit position of a received character or an
idle condition on the PTE1/RxD pin. Reset clears the WAKE bit.
1 = Address mark wakeup
0 = Idle line wakeup
ILTY — Idle Line Type Bit
This read/write bit determines when the SCI starts counting logic 1s as idle
character bits. The counting begins either after the start bit or after the stop bit.
If the count begins after the start bit, then a string of logic 1s preceding the stop
bit may cause false recognition of an idle character. Beginning the count after
the stop bit avoids false idle character recognition, but requires properly
synchronized transmissions. Reset clears the ILTY bit.
1 = Idle character bit count begins after stop bit
0 = Idle character bit count begins after start bit
PEN — Parity Enable Bit
This read/write bit enables the SCI parity function. See
Table 13-5
.
When
enabled, the parity function inserts a parity bit in the most significant bit position.
See
Figure 13-2
. Reset clears the PEN bit.
1 = Parity function enabled
0 = Parity function disabled
PTY — Parity Bit
This read/write bit determines whether the SCI generates and checks for odd
parity or even parity. See
Table 13-5
.
Reset clears the PTY bit.
1 = Odd parity
0 = Even parity
NOTE:
Changing the PTY bit in the middle of a transmission or reception can generate a
parity error.
