Functional Description
If the TE bit is cleared during a transmission, the TxD pin becomes idle after completion of the
transmission in progress. Clearing and then setting the TE bit during a transmission queues an idle
character to be sent after the character currently being transmitted.
NOTE
When queueing an idle character, return the TE bit to 1 before the stop bit
of the current character shifts out to the TxD pin. Setting TE after the stop
bit appears on TxD causes data previously written to the SCDR to be lost.
A good time to toggle the TE bit for a queued idle character is when the
SCTE bit becomes set and just before writing the next byte to the SCDR.
14.4.2.5 Inversion of Transmitted Output
The transmit inversion bit (TXINV) in ESCI control register 1 (SCC1) reverses the polarity of transmitted
data. All transmitted values including idle, break, start, and stop bits, are inverted when TXINV is at 1. See
14.8.1 ESCI Control Register 1.
14.4.2.6 Transmitter Interrupts
These conditions can generate CPU interrupt requests from the ESCI transmitter:
• ESCI transmitter empty (SCTE) — The SCTE bit in SCS1 indicates that the SCDR has transferred
a character to the transmit shift register. SCTE can generate a transmitter CPU interrupt request.
Setting the ESCI transmit interrupt enable bit, SCTIE, in SCC2 enables the SCTE bit to generate
transmitter CPU interrupt requests.
• Transmission complete (TC) — The TC bit in SCS1 indicates that the transmit shift register and the
SCDR are empty and that no break or idle character has been generated. The transmission
complete interrupt enable bit, TCIE, in SCC2 enables the TC bit to generate transmitter CPU
interrupt requests.
14.4.3 Receiver
Figure 14-6 shows the structure of the ESCI receiver. The receiver I/O registers are summarized in
Figure 14-4.
14.4.3.1 Character Length
The receiver 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 receiving 9-bit data, bit R8 in ESCI control register 3 (SCC3)
is the ninth bit (bit 8). When receiving 8-bit data, bit R8 is a copy of the eighth bit (bit 7).
14.4.3.2 Character Reception
During an ESCI reception, the receive shift register shifts characters in from the RxD pin. The ESCI data
register (SCDR) is the read-only buffer between the internal data bus and the receive shift register.
After a complete character shifts into the receive shift register, the data portion of the character transfers
to the SCDR. The ESCI receiver full bit, SCRF, in ESCI status register 1 (SCS1) becomes set, indicating
that the received byte can be read. If the ESCI receive interrupt enable bit, SCRIE, in SCC2 is also set,
the SCRF bit generates a receiver CPU interrupt request.
