Figure 11-9. SCI Control Register 1 (SCC1)
LOOPS — Loop Mode Select Bit
This read/write bit enables loop mode operation. In loop mode the RxD pin is disconnected from the
SCI, and the transmitter output goes into the receiver input. Both the transmitter and the receiver must
be enabled to use loop mode. Reset clears the LOOPS bit.
1 = Loop mode enabled
0 = Normal operation enabled
ENSCI — Enable SCI Bit
This read/write bit enables the SCI and the SCI baud rate generator. Clearing ENSCI sets the SCTE
and TC bits in SCI status register 1 and disables transmitter interrupts. Reset clears the ENSCI bit.
1 = SCI enabled
0 = SCI disabled
TXINV — Transmit Inversion Bit
This read/write bit reverses the polarity of transmitted data. Reset clears the TXINV bit.
1 = Transmitter output inverted
0 = Transmitter output not inverted
NOTE
Setting the TXINV bit inverts all transmitted values, including idle, break,
start, and stop bits.
M — Mode (Character Length) Bit
This read/write bit determines whether SCI characters are eight or nine bits long. (See Table 11-5.)
The ninth bit can serve as an extra stop bit, as a receiver wakeup signal, or as a parity bit. Reset clears
the M bit.
1 = 9-bit SCI characters
0 = 8-bit SCI characters
