Pin Name Conventions
14.3 Pin Name Conventions
The generic names of the SCI I/O pins are:
• RxD (receive data)
• TxD (transmit data)
SCI I/O (input/output) lines are implemented by sharing parallel I/O port pins. The full name of an SCI
input or output reflects the name of the shared port pin. Table 14-1 shows the full names and the generic
names of the SCI I/O pins.
The generic pin names appear in the text of this section.

14.4 Functional Description
Figure 14-3 shows the structure of the SCI module. The SCI allows full-duplex, asynchronous, NRZ serial
communication among the MCU and remote devices, including other MCUs. The transmitter and receiver
of the SCI operate independently, although they use the same baud rate generator. During normal
operation, the CPU monitors the status of the SCI, writes the data to be transmitted, and processes
received data.
The baud rate clock source for the SCI can be selected via the configuration bit, SCIBDSRC, of the MOR2
register ($001E). Source selection values are shown in Figure 14-3.
14.4.1 Data Format
The SCI uses the standard non-return-to-zero mark/space data format illustrated in Figure 14-2.
