5.2 Introduction
The serial communications interface (SCI) is a universal asynchronous
receiver transmitter (UART). It has a non-return to zero (NRZ) format
(one start, eight or nine data, and one stop bit) that is compatible with
standard RS-232 systems.
The MC68HC11P2 contains three serial communications interfaces, all
having similar operation. For ease of reference, a full description of SCI1
(PD0/RXD1, PD1/TXD1) is given first, followed by summaries for SCI2
and SCI3, detailing their differences.
