Freescale Semiconductor Serial Communications Interface Module (SCI)
263
M — Mode (Character Length) Bit
This read/write bit determines whether SCI characters are eight or
nine bits long. (See Table 15-5.) 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
WAKE — Wakeup Condition Bit
This read/write bit determines which condition wakes up the SCI: a
logic 1 (address mark) in the most significant bit position of a received
character or an idle condition on the PTE1/RxD pin. Reset clears the
WAKE bit.
1 = Address mark wakeup
0 = Idle line wakeup
ILTY — Idle Line Type Bit
This read/write bit determines when the SCI starts counting logic 1s
as idle character bits. The counting begins either after the start bit or
after the stop bit. If the count begins after the start bit, then a string of
logic 1s preceding the stop bit may cause false recognition of an idle
character. Beginning the count after the stop bit avoids false idle
character recognition, but requires properly synchronized
transmissions. Reset clears the ILTY bit.
1 = Idle character bit count begins after stop bit
0 = Idle character bit count begins after start bit
PEN — Parity Enable Bit
This read/write bit enables the SCI parity function. (See Table 15-5.)
When enabled, the parity function inserts a parity bit in the most
significant bit position. (See Figure 15-3.) Reset clears the PEN bit.
1 = Parity function enabled
0 = Parity function disabled
