Section 14 Serial Communication Interface (SCI)
• Receive error detection: Parity, overrun, and framing errors
• Break detection: Break can be detected by reading the RxD pin level directly in the case of a
framing error
Clocked Synchronous mode
• Data length: 8 bits
• Receive error detection: Overrun errors detected
Smart Card Interface
• Automatic transmission of error signal (parity error) in receive mode
• Error signal detection and automatic data retransmission in transmit mode
• Direct convention and inverse convention both supported
