On-chip baud rate generator allows selection of the desired bit rate
Choice of LSB-first or MSB-first transfer
Noise cancellation (only available in asynchronous mode)
I2C bus interface
(RIIC)
1 channel

I2C bus format/SMBus format
Master/slave selectable
CAN module
(CAN)
(as an optional
function)

Communications
Serial peripheral
interface (RSPI)
1 unit
RSPI transfer facility
Using the MOSI (master out, slave in), MISO (master in, slave out),
SSL (slave select), and RSPI clock (RSPCK) signals enables serial
transfer through SPI operation (four lines) or clock-synchronous
operation (three lines)
Capable of handling serial transfer as a master or slave
Data formats
Switching between MSB first and LSB first
The number of bits in each transfer can be changed to any number of
bits from 8 to 16, or to 20, 24, or 32 bits.
128-bit buffers for transmission and reception
Up to four frames can be transmitted or received in a single transfer
operation (with each frame having up to 32 bits)
Buffered structure
Double buffers for both transmission and reception
LIN module (LIN)
1 channel (LIN master)
Supports revisions 1.3, 2.0, and 2.1 of the LIN protocol
