SCI Interrupt Sources

The SCI has four interrupt sources in each channel: transmit-end (TEI), receive-error (ERI),

receive-data-full (RXI), and transmit-data-empty (TXI). Table 13.13 lists the interrupt sources and

indicates their priority. These interrupts can be enabled and disabled by the TIE, RIE, and TEIE

bits in the serial control register (SCSCR). Each interrupt request is sent separately to the interrupt

controller.

TXI is requested when the TDRE bit in SCSSR is set to 1. TDRE is automatically cleared to 0

when data is written in the transmit data register (SCTDR).

RXI is requested when the RDRF bit in SCSSR is set to 1. RDRF is automatically cleared to 0

when the receive data register (SCRDR) is read.

ERI is requested when the ORER, PER, or FER bit in SCSSR is set to 1.

TEI is requested when the TEND bit in SCSSR is set to 1. Where the TXI interrupt indicates that

transmit data writing is enabled, the TEI interrupt indicates that the transmit operation is complete.

Usage Notes

Note the following points when using the SCI.

SCTDR Write and TDRE Flags: The TDRE bit in the serial status register (SCSSR) is a status

flag indicating loading of transmit data from SCTDR into SCTSR. The SCI sets TDRE to 1 when

it transfers data from SCTDR to SCTSR. Data can be written to SCTDR regardless of the TDRE

bit status. If new data is written in SCTDR when TDRE is 0, however, the old data stored in

SCTDR will be lost because the data has not yet been transferred to SCTSR. Before writing

transmit data to SCTDR, be sure to check that TDRE is set to 1.
