Data Transfer Operations:
• SCI initialization (clocked synchronous mode)
Before transmitting and receiving data, you should first clear the TE and RE bits in SCR to 0, then initialize the SCI as
described below.
When the operating mode, transfer format, etc., is changed, the TE and RE bits must be cleared to 0 before making the
change using the following procedure. When the TE bit is cleared to 0, the TDRE flag is set to 1 and TSR is initialized.
Note that clearing the RE bit to 0 does not change the contents of the RDRF, PER, FER, and ORER flags, or the
contents of RDR.
Figure 14-15 shows a sample SCI initialization flowchart.

[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.
