i = 0 or 1
NOTES:
1. The bits used for transmit/receive data are as follows: Bits 0 to 6 when transfer data is 7-bit long; bits
0 to 7 when transfer data is 8-bit long; bits 0 to 8 when transfer data is 9-bit long.
2. The following bits are undefined: Bits 7 and 8 when transfer data is 7 bits long; bit 8 when transfer
data is 8 bits long.
3. External clock can be selected in UART0 only.
Table 15.6 lists the I/O Pin Functions in UART Mode. After the UARTi (i = 0 or 1) operating mode is selected, the
TXDi pin outputs “H” level (if the NCH bit is set to 1 (N-channel open-drain outputs), this pin is in a high-
impedance state) until transfer starts.
Table 15.5 Registers Used and Settings for UART Mode
Register Bit Function

Table 15.6 I/O Pin Functions in UART Mode
Pin name Function Selection Method
TXD0(P1_4) Output serial data (Cannot be used as a port when performing receive only)
RXD0(P1_5) Input serial data The PD1_5 bit in the PD1 register = 0
(P1_5 can be used as an input port when performing transmit only)
CLK0(P1_6) Programmable I/O port The CKDIR bit in the U0MR register = 0
Input transfer clock The CKDIR bit in the U0MR register = 1
The PD1_6 bit in the PD1 register = 0
TXD1(P6_6) Output serial data U1PINSEL bit in PMR register = 1
(Cannot be used as a port when performing receive only)
RXD1(P6_7) Input serial data U1PINSEL bit in PMR register = 1
The PD6_7bit in the PD6 register = 0
(P6_7 can be used as an input port when performing transmit
only)
