COMMUNICATION

SCCs
UN—Underrun 
This bit indicates that a serial communication controller has encountered a transmitter 
underrun condition while transmitting the associated data buffer.
CT—CTS Lost 
This bit indicates the CTSx
 signal has been lost during frame transmission.
DATA LENGTH 
This field represents the number of bytes that the communication processor module must 
transmit from this buffer descriptor data buffer. It must be greater than zero, even or odd. 
This value is never modified by the communication processor module.
TX DATA BUFFER POINTER 
This field always points to the first byte of the associated data buffer. It can be even or odd, 
and can reside in internal or external memory.
16.9.21.11  SCCx TRANSPARENT EVENT REGISTER. When a serial communication 
controller is in transparent mode, the 16-bit, memory-mapped SCCx event register is 
referred to as the SCCx transparent event register (SCCE–Transparent). Since each 
protocol has specific requirements, the SCCE bits are different for each implementation. 
This register is used to report events recognized by the transparent channel and to generate 
interrupts. When an event is recognized, the SCCx Transparent controller sets the 
corresponding bit in this register. Interrupts generated by this register can be masked in the 
SCCM–Transparent register.
A bit is reset by writing a 1 (writing a zero has no effect) and more than one bit can be reset 
at a time. All unmasked bits must be reset before the communication processor module 
negates the internal interrupt request signal. This register is cleared at reset and can be read 
at any time.
Bits 0–2, 6–7, and 9–10—Reserved
These bits are reserved and must be set to 0.
GLR—Glitch on RX
If set, this bit indicates that a serial communication controller has found a glitch on the 
receive clock.
