Section 20.2, “SCC Buffer Descriptors (BDs),” describes the data length and buffer pointer fields.

21.18 SCC UART Transmit Buffer Descriptor (TxBD)

The CPM uses BDs to confirm transmission and indicate error conditions so the core knows that buffers

have been serviced. Figure 21-9 shows the SCC UART TxBD.

Table 21-11 describes TxBD status and control fields.

—

Reserved, should be cleared.

Break received. Set when a break sequence is received as data is being received into this buffer.

Framing error. Set when a character with a framing error (a character without a stop bit) is received

and located in the last byte of this buffer. A new Rx buffer is used to receive subsequent data.

Parity error. Set when a character with a parity error is received and located in the last byte of this

buffer. A new Rx buffer is used to receive subsequent data.

—

Reserved, should be cleared.

Overrun. Set when a receiver overrun occurs during reception.

Carrier detect lost. Set when the carrier detect signal is negated during reception.

Description

Ready.

0 The buffer is not ready. This BD and buffer can be modified. The CPM automatically clears R after

the buffer is sent or an error occurs.

1 The user-prepared buffer is waiting to begin transmission or is being transmitted. Do not modify

the BD once R is set.

—

Reserved, should be cleared.

Wrap (last buffer descriptor in TxBD table).

0 Not the last BD in the table.

1 Last BD in the table. After this buffer is used, the CPM sends data using the BD pointed to by

TBASE. The number of TxBDs in this table is determined only by the W bit and space constraints

of the dual-port RAM.
