sCharacter length selection bit (bit 0)
This bit selects data bit length of the UART transfer data format.
In the “0” state, the data bit length is 8 bits. In the “1” state, the data bit length is 7 bits.
sParity enable bit (bit 1)
This bit is set to “1” to make a parity check and to “0” to make no parity check.
In the “1” state, the parity error flag becomes valid.
sParity selection bit (bit 2)
This bit selects a parity type of the UART transfer data format.
In the “0” state, the parity type is an even parity. In the “1” state, it is an odd parity.
sStop bit length selection bit (bit 3)
This bit selects a stop bit length of the UART transfer data format.
In the “0” state, the stop bit length is 1 stop bit.
In the “1” state, the stop bit length is 2 stop bits.
sP45/TxD P-channel output disable bit (bit 4)
This bit controls the output type of the P45/TxD pin.
In the “0” state, the output type is CMOS output in the output mode. In the “1” state, the output type
is N-channel open-drain output in the output mode.
The 5 low-order bits of the UART control register can be read and written. The 3 high-order bits are
unused and read-only bits. At reading, all the bits are set to “1.”
