13.3 Pin Name Conventions
The generic names of the ESCI input/output (I/O) pins are:
RxD (receive data)
TxD (transmit data)
ESCI I/O lines are implemented by sharing parallel I/O port pins. The full name of an ESCI input or output
reflects the name of the shared port pin. Table 13-1 shows the full names and the generic names of the
ESCI I/O pins. The generic pin names appear in the text of this section.
13.4 Functional Description
Figure 13-3 shows the structure of the ESCI module. The ESCI allows full-duplex, asynchronous, NRZ
serial communication between the MCU and remote devices, including other MCUs. The transmitter and
receiver of the ESCI operate independently, although they use the same baud rate generator. During
normal operation, the CPU monitors the status of the ESCI, writes the data to be transmitted, and
processes received data.
The baud rate clock source for the ESCI can be selected via the configuration bit, SCIBDSRC, of the
CONFIG2 register ($001E)
For reference, a summary of the ESCI module input/output registers is provided in Figure 13-4.
13.4.1 Data Format
The SCI uses the standard non-return-to-zero mark/space data format illustrated in Figure 13-2.
