13.2 Introduction
This section describes the infrared serial communications interface 
(IRSCI) module which allows high-speed asynchronous 
communications with peripheral devices and other MCUs. This IRSCI 
consists of an SCI module for conventional SCI functions and a software 
programmable infrared encoder/decoder sub-module for 
encoding/decoding the serial data for connection to infrared LEDs in 
remote control applications.
NOTE: References to DMA (direct-memory access) and associated functions 
are only valid if the MCU has a DMA module. This MCU does not have 
the DMA function. Any DMA-related register bits should be left in their 
reset state for normal MCU operation.
