I/O Registers
SCRF — SCI Receiver Full Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when the data in the receive shift register transfers to the SCI data
register. SCRF can generate an SCI receiver CPU interrupt request. When the SCRIE bit in SCC2 is
set the SCRF generates a CPU interrupt request. In normal operation, clear the SCRF bit by reading
SCS1 with SCRF set and then reading the SCDR. Reset clears SCRF.
1 = Received data available in SCDR
0 = Data not available in SCDR
IDLE — Receiver Idle Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when 10 or 11 consecutive 1s appear on the receiver input. IDLE
generates an SCI error CPU interrupt request if the ILIE bit in SCC2 is also set. Clear the IDLE bit by
reading SCS1 with IDLE set and then reading the SCDR. After the receiver is enabled, it must receive
a valid character that sets the SCRF bit before an idle condition can set the IDLE bit. Also, after the
IDLE bit has been cleared, a valid character must again set the SCRF bit before an idle condition can
set the IDLE bit. Reset clears the IDLE bit.
1 = Receiver input idle
0 = Receiver input active (or idle since the IDLE bit was cleared)
OR — Receiver Overrun Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when software fails to read the SCDR before the receive shift
register receives the next character. The OR bit generates an SCI error CPU interrupt request if the
ORIE bit in SCC3 is also set. The data in the shift register is lost, but the data already in the SCDR is
not affected. Clear the OR bit by reading SCS1 with OR set and then reading the SCDR. Reset clears
the OR bit.
1 = Receive shift register full and SCRF = 1
0 = No receiver overrun
Software latency may allow an overrun to occur between reads of SCS1 and SCDR in the flag-clearing
sequence. Figure 12-14 shows the normal flag-clearing sequence and an example of an overrun
caused by a delayed flag-clearing sequence. The delayed read of SCDR does not clear the OR bit
because OR was not set when SCS1 was read. Byte 2 caused the overrun and is lost. The next
flag-clearing sequence reads byte 3 in the SCDR instead of byte 2.
In applications that are subject to software latency or in which it is important to know which byte is lost
due to an overrun, the flag-clearing routine can check the OR bit in a second read of SCS1 after
reading the data register.
NF — Receiver Noise Flag Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when the SCI detects noise on the RxD pin. NF generates an NF
CPU interrupt request if the NEIE bit in SCC3 is also set. Clear the NF bit by reading SCS1 and then
reading the SCDR. Reset clears the NF bit.
1 = Noise detected
0 = No noise detected
FE — Receiver Framing Error Bit
This clearable, read-only bit is set when a 0 is accepted as the stop bit. FE generates an SCI error CPU
interrupt request if the FEIE bit in SCC3 also is set. Clear the FE bit by reading SCS1 with FE set and
then reading the SCDR. Reset clears the FE bit.
1 = Framing error detected
0 = No framing error detected
