1-bit interval elapsed?
Set CKE1 and CKE0 bits in SCR
(TE, RE bits 0)
[1]
[1] Set the clock selection in SCR. Be sure
to clear bits RIE, TIE, TEIE, and MPIE,
TE and RE, to 0.
[2] Set the data transfer format in SMR and
SCMR.
[3] Write a value corresponding to the bit
rate to BRR. Not necessary if an
external clock is used.
[4] Wait at least one bit interval, then set
the TE bit or RE bit in SCR to 1.
Also set the RIE, TIE TEIE, and MPIE
bits.
Setting the TE and RE bits enables the
TxD and RxD pins to be used.
Note: In simultaneous transmit and receive operations, the TE and RE bits should both be cleared
to 0 or set to 1 simultaneously.

15.6.3 Serial Data Transmission (Clocked Synchronous Mode)
Figure 15.19 shows an example of SCI operation for transmission in clocked synchronous mode.
In serial transmission, the SCI operates as described below.
1. The SCI monitors the TDRE flag in SSR, and if the flag is 0, the SCI recognizes that data has
been written to TDR, and transfers the data from TDR to TSR.
2. After transferring data from TDR to TSR, the SCI sets the TDRE flag to 1 and starts
transmission. If the TIE bit in SCR is set to 1 at this time, a transmit data empty interrupt
(TXI) is generated. Continuous transmission is possible because the TXI interrupt routine
writes the next transmit data to TDR before transmission of the current transmit data has been
completed.
