TXD1
The SCI transmit and receive functions are enabled by TE and RE
respectively, in SCCR2.
The SCI features enabled on this MCU include: 13-bit modulus
prescaler; idle line detect; receiver-active flag; transmitter and receiver
hardware parity. A block diagram of the enhanced baud rate generator
is shown in Figure 5-1. See Table 5-1 for example baud rate control
values.

5.3 Data format
The serial data format requires the following conditions:
• An idle-line condition before transmission or reception of a
message.
• A start bit, logic zero, transmitted or received, that indicates the
start of each character.
• Data that is transmitted and received least significant bit (LSB)
first.
