UART clock select. This allows for data rates to 460.8 Kbps and different data rates on

each port. These settings are per-port:

Transmit ‘ON’

Full – RS422 Mode

ECHOEN 1:0 Echo enable/disable. When set low, this enables the hardware to echo the transmitted data to the
receiver. When set high, this disables the ‘Receiver Enable’ control signal on the RS485 transceiver while data is
being transmitted. Therefore, the transmitted data are not echoed to the receiver.
For TXSEL0:1 = ‘11’, ECHOEN has no function since this is full duplex mode and the transmitter and receiver are
always ‘ON’.
