Start transmission
Read TDRE flag in SSR[1]
Write transmit data to TDR
No

No
Yes
Read TEND flag in SSR
[2]
Clear TE bit in SCR3 to 0
TDRE = 1
All data transmitted?
TEND = 1
[1]  Read SSR and check that the TDRE flag is 
set to 1, then write transmit data to TDR. 
When data is written to TDR, the TDRE flag 
is automatically cleared to 0 and clocks are 
output to start the data transmission.
[2]  To continue serial transmission, be sure to 
read 1 from the TDRE flag to confirm that 
writing is possible, then write data to TDR.
  When data is written to TDR, the TDRE flag 
is automatically cleared to 0.
