1. Set the clock selection in SCSCR1.
Initialization
Be sure to clear bits RIE, TIE, TEIE,
and MPIE, and bits TE and RE, to 0.
Clear TE and RE bits
in SCSCR1 to 0
When clock output is selected in
asynchronous mode, it is output
immediately after SCSCR1 settings
are made.
Set CKE1 and CKE0 bits
in SCSCR1 (leaving TE and
RE bits cleared to 0)
2. Set the transmit/receive format in
SCSMR1.
3. Write a value corresponding to the
bit rate into SCBRR1. (Not
necessary if an external clock is
used.)
Set transmit/receive format
in SCSMR1
4. Wait at least one bit interval, then set
the TE bit or RE bit in SCSCR1 to 1.
Also set the RIE, TIE, TEIE, and
MPIE bits.
Set value in SCBRR1
Wait
No
Setting the TE and RE bits enables
the TxD and RxD pins to be used.
When transmitting, the SCI will go to
the mark state; when receiving, it will
go to the idle state, waiting for a start
bit.
1-bit interval elapsed?
Yes
Set TE and RE bits in SCSCR1
to 1, and set RIE, TIE, TEIE,
and MPIE bits

Serial Data Transmission (Asynchronous Mode): Figure 15.8 shows a sample flowchart for
serial transmission.
Use the following procedure for serial data transmission after enabling the SCI for transmission.
