14.4.2.1 Character Length
The transmitter can accommodate either 8-bit or 9-bit data. The state of the M bit in ESCI control
register 1 (SCC1) determines character length. When transmitting 9-bit data, bit T8 in ESCI control
register 3 (SCC3) is the ninth bit (bit 8).
14.4.2.2 Character Transmission
During an ESCI transmission, the transmit shift register shifts a character out to the TxD pin. The ESCI
data register (SCDR) is the write-only buffer between the internal data bus and the transmit shift register.
