SCK0	Input/	Input	Serial Clock—Provides the serial bit rate clock for the ESSI.
	Output		The SCK0 is a clock input or output, used by both the
			transmitter and receiver in synchronous modes or by the
			transmitter in asynchronous modes.
			Although an external serial clock can be independent of and
			asynchronous to the DSP system clock, it must exceed the
			minimum clock cycle time of 6T (that is, the system clock
			frequency must be at least three times the external ESSI
			clock frequency). The ESSI needs at least three DSP phases
			inside each half of the serial clock.
			Port C 3—The default configuration following reset is GPIO
PC3	Input or Output		input PC3. When configured as PC3, signal direction is
			controlled through PRR0. The signal can be configured as an
			ESSI signal SCK0 through PCR0.
			This signal has a weak keeper to maintain the last state even
			if all drivers are tri-stated.

SRD0	Input/	Input	Serial Receive Data—Receives serial data and transfers the
	Output		data to the ESSI receive shift register. SRD0 is an input when
			data is being received.
			Port C 4—The default configuration following reset is GPIO
PC4	Input or Output		input PC4. When configured as PC4, signal direction is
			controlled through PRR0. The signal can be configured as an
			ESSI signal SRD0 through PCR0.
			This signal has a weak keeper to maintain the last state even
			if all drivers are tri-stated.

STD0	Input/	Input	Serial Transmit Data—Transmits data from the serial
	Output		transmit shift register. STD0 is an output when data is
			transmitted.
			Port C 5—The default configuration following reset is GPIO
PC5	Input or Output		input PC5. When configured as PC5, signal direction is
			controlled through PRR0. The signal can be configured as an
			ESSI signal STD0 through PCR0.
			This signal has a weak keeper to maintain the last state even
			if all drivers are tri-stated.
