16.1 Functions of Serial Interface UART0
Serial interface UART0 has the following two modes.
(1) Operation stop mode
This mode is used when serial transfers are not performed to reduce power consumption.
For details, see 16.4.1 Operation stop mode.
(2) Asynchronous serial interface (UART) mode (fixed to LSB-first)
This mode enables full-duplex operation wherein one byte of data after the start bit is transmitted and received.
The on-chip baud rate generator dedicated to UART enables communications using a wide range of selectable
baud rates.
The UART baud rate generator can also be used to generate a MIDI-standard baud rate (31.25 kbps).
For details, see 16.4.2 Asynchronous serial interface (UART) mode.
Figure 16-1 shows a block diagram of serial interface UART0.
