Product Specification

Transmitting Data Using the Polled Method

Follow the steps below to transmit data using the polled method of operation:

1. Write to the baud rate generator constant (BCNST) register, address ðÚì¸, to set the

appropriate baud rate.

2. Write a 0 to bit 6 of the P01M register.

3. Write to the UART control register (UCTL) to:

a. Set the transmit enable bit, UCTL[7], to enable the UART for data transmission.

b. If parity is appropriate, set the parity enable bit, UCTL[4] to 1 and select either

Even or Odd parity (UCTL[3]).

4. Check the Transmit Status register bit, UST[2], to determine if the Transmit Data reg-

ister is empty (indicated by a 1). If empty, continue to Step 6. If the Transmit Data reg-

ister is full (indicated by a 0), continue to monitor the UST[2] bit until the Transmit

Data register becomes available to receive new data.

5. Write the data byte to the UART Transmit Data register, ðÚï¸. The transmitter auto-

matically transfers the data to the internal transmit shift register and transmits the data.

6. To transmit additional bytes, return to Step 4.
