Serial interface transfer clock can be created by using the timer output signal.
„ Serial InterfaceTransfer Clock Operation by 8-bit Timer (Timers 4 and 5)
Timer 4 output can be used as a transfer clock source for serial interface 1. Timer 5 output can be used as
a transfer clock source for serial interface 0.

The timer output is synchronized to the serial transfer clock by the timer count clock, and its fre-
quency is 1/2 of the set frequency by the compare register.
Other count timings are same to the timing of timer operation. For the baud rate calculation and the
serial interface setup, refer to chapter 11. Serial Interface 0 and 1.
