USCI Registers: UART Mode
15.4.1 UCAxCTL0, USCI_Ax Control Register 0
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
UCPEN UCPAR UCMSB UC7BIT UCSPB UCMODEx UCSYNC
rw-0 rw-0 rw-0 rw-0 rw-0 rw-0 rw-0 rw-0
UCPEN Bit 7 Parity enable
0 Parity disabled.
1 Parity enabled. Parity bit is generated (UCAxTXD) and expected (UCAxRXD). In address-bit
multiprocessor mode, the address bit is included in the parity calculation.
UCPAR Bit 6 Parity select. UCPAR is not used when parity is disabled.
0 Odd parity
1 Even parity
UCMSB Bit 5 MSB first select. Controls the direction of the receive and transmit shift register.
0 LSB first
1 MSB first
UC7BIT Bit 4 Character length. Selects 7-bit or 8-bit character length.
0 8-bit data
1 7-bit data
UCSPB Bit 3 Stop bit select. Number of stop bits.
0 One stop bit
1 Two stop bits
UCMODEx Bits 2-1 USCI mode. The UCMODEx bits select the asynchronous mode when UCSYNC = 0.
00 UART mode
01 Idle-line multiprocessor mode
10 Address-bit multiprocessor mode
11 UART mode with automatic baud rate detection
UCSYNC Bit 0 Synchronous mode enable
0 Asynchronous mode
1 Synchronous mode
