11.5 Usage Notes
Note the following points when using the SCI.
Section 11 Serial Communication Interface
TDR Write and TDRE Flag
The TDRE flag in SSR is a status flag indicating the loading of transmit data from TDR into TSR.
The SCI sets the TDRE flag to 1 when it transfers data from TDR to TSR.
Data can be written into TDR regardless of the state of the TDRE flag. If new data is written in
TDR when the TDRE flag is 0, the old data stored in TDR will be lost because this data has not
yet been transferred to TSR. Before writing transmit data in TDR, be sure to check that the TDRE
flag is set to 1.
Simultaneous Multiple Receive Errors
Table 11.13 indicates the state of SSR status flags when multiple receive errors occur
simultaneously. When an overrun error occurs the RSR contents are not transferred to RDR, so
receive data is lost.
