Figure 4 shows the structure of the SCI transmitter.
Character Length
The transmitter can accommodate either 8-bit or 9-bit data. The state of
the M bit in SCI control register 1 (SCC1) determines character length.
When transmitting 9-bit data, bit T8 in SCI control register 3 (SCC3) is
the ninth bit (bit 8).

Transmission

During an SCI transmission, the transmit shift register shifts a character
out to the TxD pin. The SCI data register (SCDR) is the write-only buffer
between the internal data bus and the transmit shift register. To initiate
an SCI transmission:
1. Enable the SCI by writing a logic 1 to the enable SCI bit (ENSCI)
in SCI control register 1 (SCC1).
2. Enable the transmitter by writing a logic 1 to the transmitter enable
bit (TE) in SCI control register 2 (SCC2).
3. Clear the SCI transmitter empty bit by first reading SCI status
register 1 (SCS1) and then writing to the SCDR. In a DMA transfer,
the DMA automatically clears the SCTE bit by writing to the
SCDR.
4. Repeat step 3 for each subsequent transmission.
At the start of a transmission, transmitter control logic automatically
loads the transmit shift register with a preamble of logic 1s. After the
preamble shifts out, control logic transfers the SCDR data into the
Serial Communications Interface Module (SCI)
