15.5.2.2 Wait Mode

SCI operation in wait mode depends on the state of the SCISWAI bit in the SCI control register 1
(SCICR1).
If SCISWAI is clear, the SCI operates normally when the CPU is in wait mode.
If SCISWAI is set, SCI clock generation ceases and the SCI module enters a power-conservation
state when the CPU is in wait mode. Setting SCISWAI does not affect the state of the receiver
enable bit, RE, or the transmitter enable bit, TE.
If SCISWAI is set, any transmission or reception in progress stops at wait mode entry. The
transmission or reception resumes when either an internal or external interrupt brings the CPU out
of wait mode. Exiting wait mode by reset aborts any transmission or reception in progress and
resets the SCI.

15.5.2.3 Stop Mode

The SCI is inactive during stop mode for reduced power consumption. The STOP instruction does not
affect the SCI register states, but the SCI bus clock will be disabled. The SCI operation resumes from
where it left off after an external interrupt brings the CPU out of stop mode. Exiting stop mode by reset
aborts any transmission or reception in progress and resets the SCI.
The receive input active edge detect circuit is still active in stop mode. An active edge on the receive input
can be used to bring the CPU out of stop mode.
15.5.3 Interrupt Operation
This section describes the interrupt originated by the SCI block.The MCU must service the interrupt
requests. Table 15-20 lists the eight interrupt sources of the SCI.
Table 15-20. SCI Interrupt Sources
Interrupt Source Local Enable Description
TDRE SCISR1[7] TIE Active high level. Indicates that a byte was transferred from SCIDRH/L to the
transmit shift register.
TC SCISR1[6] TCIE Active high level. Indicates that a transmit is complete.
RDRF SCISR1[5] RIE Active high level. The RDRF interrupt indicates that received data is available
in the SCI data register.
OR SCISR1[3] Active high level. This interrupt indicates that an overrun condition has occurred.
IDLE SCISR1[4] ILIE Active high level. Indicates that receiver input has become idle.
RXEDGIF SCIASR1[7] RXEDGIE Active high level. Indicates that an active edge (falling for RXPOL = 0, rising for
RXPOL = 1) was detected.
BERRIF SCIASR1[1] BERRIE Active high level. Indicates that a mismatch between transmitted and received data
in a single wire application has happened.
BKDIF SCIASR1[0] BRKDIE Active high level. Indicates that a break character has been received.
