5 PERIPHERAL CIRCUITS AND THEIR OPERATION (Serial Interface)
5.8 Serial Interface
5.8.1 Configuration of serial interface
The S1C88650 incorporates a full duplex serial
interface (when asynchronous system is selected)
that allows the user to select either clock synchro-
nous system or asynchronous system.
The data transfer method can be selected in soft-
ware.
When the clock synchronous system is selected, 8-
bit data transfer is possible.
When the asynchronous system is selected, either 7-
bit or 8-bit data transfer is possible, and a parity
check of received data and the addition of a parity
bit for transmitting data can automatically be done
by selecting in software.
Figure 5.8.1.1 shows the configuration of the serial
interface.

5.8.2 Switching of terminal functions
Serial interface input/output terminals, SIN, SOUT,

SCLK and SRDY are shared with I/O ports P10–
P13. In order to utilize these terminals for the serial
interface input/output terminals, "1" must be
written to the ESIF register.
At initial reset, these terminals are set as I/O port
terminals.
The direction of I/O port terminals set for serial
interface input/output terminals are determined by
the signal and transfer mode for each terminal.
Furthermore, the settings for the corresponding I/
O control registers for the I/O ports become
invalid.
