19.4.3.1 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).
19.4.3.2 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.
19.4.3.3 Data Sampling
The receiver samples the RxD pin at the RT clock rate. The RT clock is an internal
signal with a frequency 16 times the baud rate. To adjust for baud rate mismatch,
the RT clock is resynchronized at these times (see Figure 19-6):
• After every start bit
• After the receiver detects a data bit change from logic 1 to logic 0 (after the
majority of data bit samples at RT8, RT9, and RT10 returns a valid logic 1
and the majority of the next RT8, RT9, and RT10 samples returns a valid
logic 0)
To locate the start bit, data recovery logic does an asynchronous search for a
logic 0 preceded by three logic 1s. When the falling edge of a possible start bit
occurs, the RT clock begins to count to 16.
