6.13.4 Serial Communications Interface (SCI)

The SCI is a 2-wire asynchronous serial port, commonly known as a UART. The SCI module supports digital communications between the CPU and other asynchronous peripherals that use the standard non-return-to-zero (NRZ) format

The SCI receiver and transmitter each have a 16-level-deep FIFO for reducing servicing overhead, and each has its own separate enable and interrupt bits. Both can be operated independently for half-duplex communication, or simultaneously for full-duplex communication. To specify data integrity, the SCI checks received data for break detection, parity, overrun, and framing errors. The bit rate is programmable to different speeds through a 16-bit baud-select register.

Features of the SCI module include:

  • Two external pins:
    • SCITXD: SCI transmit-output pin
    • SCIRXD: SCI receive-input pin
    • Baud rate programmable to 64K different rates
  • Data-word format
    • 1 start bit
    • Data-word length programmable from 1 to 8 bits
    • Optional even/odd/no parity bit
    • 1 or 2 stop bits
  • Four error-detection flags: parity, overrun, framing, and break detection
  • Two wake-up multiprocessor modes: idle-line and address bit
  • Half-duplex or full-duplex operation
  • Double-buffered receive and transmit functions
  • Transmitter and receiver operations can be accomplished through interrupt-driven or polled algorithms with status flags.
    • Transmitter: TXRDY flag (transmitter-buffer register is ready to receive another character) and TX EMPTY flag (transmitter-shift register is empty)
    • Receiver: RXRDY flag (receiver-buffer register is ready to receive another character), BRKDT flag (break condition occurred), and RX ERROR flag (monitoring four interrupt conditions)
  • Separate enable bits for transmitter and receiver interrupts (except BRKDT)
  • NRZ format
  • Auto baud-detect hardware logic
  • 16-level transmit and receive FIFO

Figure 6-67 shows the SCI block diagram.
