(c) Transmission
A transmit operation is started by writing transmit data to the transmit shift register (TXS). The start bit,
parity bit and stop bit(s) are added automatically.
When the transmit operation starts, the data in the transmit shift register (TXS) is shifted out, and when
the transmit shift register (TXS) is empty, a transmission completion interrupt request (INTST) is
generated.

Request Generation Timing
(a) Stop bit length: 1
(b) Stop bit length: 2
Caution Rewriting of the asynchronous serial interface mode register (ASIM) should not be
performed during a transmit operation. If rewriting of the ASIM register is performed
during transmission, subsequent transmit operations may not be possible (the normal
state is restored by RESET input).
It is possible to determine whether transmission is in progress by software by using a
transmission completion interrupt request (INTST) or the interrupt request flag (STIF)
set by the INTST.
