PIC18F97J60 FAMILY
21.0 ENHANCED UNIVERSAL
SYNCHRONOUS
ASYNCHRONOUS RECEIVER
TRANSMITTER (EUSART)
The Enhanced Universal Synchronous Asynchronous
Receiver Transmitter (EUSART) module is one of two
serial I/O modules. (Generically, the EUSART is also
known as a Serial Communications Interface or SCI.)
The EUSART can be configured as a full-duplex
asynchronous system that can communicate with
peripheral devices, such as CRT terminals and
personal computers. It can also be configured as a
half-duplex synchronous system that can communicate
with peripheral devices, such as A/D or D/A integrated
circuits, serial EEPROMs, etc.
The Enhanced USART module implements additional
features, including automatic baud rate detection and
calibration, automatic wake-up on Sync Break reception
and 12-bit Break character transmit. These features
make it ideally suited for use in Local Interconnect
Network bus (LIN/J2602 bus) systems.
The 64-pin devices of the PIC18F97J60 family are
equipped with one EUSART module, referred to as
EUSART1. The 80-pin and 100-pin devices each have
two independent EUSART modules, referred to as
EUSART1 and EUSART2. They can be configured in
the following modes:
• Asynchronous (full-duplex) with:
- Auto-Wake-up on Character Reception
- Auto-Baud Calibration
- 12-Bit Break Character Transmission
• Synchronous – Master (half-duplex) with
Selectable Clock Polarity
• Synchronous – Slave (half-duplex) with
Selectable Clock Polarity
The pins of EUSART1 and EUSART2 are multiplexed
with the functions of PORTC (RC6/TX1/CK1 and
RC7/RX1/DT1) and PORTG (RG1/TX2/CK2 and
RG2/RX2/DT2), respectively. In order to configure
these pins as an EUSART:
• For EUSART1:
- SPEN bit (RCSTA1<7>) must be set (= 1)
- TRISC<7> bit must be set (= 1)
- TRISC<6> bit must be cleared (= 0) for
Asynchronous and Synchronous Master
modes
- TRISC<6> bit must be set (= 1) for
Synchronous Slave mode
• For EUSART2:
- SPEN bit (RCSTA2<7>) must be set (= 1)
- TRISG<2> bit must be set (= 1)
- TRISG<1> bit must be cleared (= 0) for
Asynchronous and Synchronous Master
modes
- TRISG<1> bit must be set (= 1) for
Synchronous Slave mode
Note:
The EUSARTx control will automatically
reconfigure the pin from input to output as
needed.
The operation of each Enhanced USART module is
controlled through three registers:
• Transmit Status and Control (TXSTAx)
• Receive Status and Control (RCSTAx)
• Baud Rate Control (BAUDCONx)
These are detailed on the following pages in
Register 21-1, Register 21-2 and Register 21-3,
respectively.
Note:
Throughout this section, references to
register and bit names that may be asso-
ciated with a specific EUSART module are
referred to generically by the use of ‘x’ in
place of the specific module number.
Thus, “RCSTAx” might refer to the
Receive Status register for either
EUSART1 or EUSART2.
