SAI Transmit Section Overview
The transmit section contains three transmitters and consists of a 16-bit 
control/status register, three 24-bit shift registers, and three 24-bit data registers. 
These three transmitters are controlled by the same control mechanism, therefore, the 
bit clock, word select line, and all control signals generated in the transmit section 
equally affect all three transmitters. The transmit section can be configured as a 
master driving its bit clock and word select lines from the internal baud-rate 
generator, or as a slave receiving these signals from an external source. Each of the 
three transmitters can be enabled separately. When a transmitter is disabled, its 
associated Serial Data Out (SDO) pin goes to high level. When all transmitters are 
disabled, the transmit controller becomes idle, the status bits TRDE and TLDE are 
cleared, and the transmit section external pins, Word Select Transmit (WST) and 
Serial Clock Transmit (SCKT), are tri-stated. The transmitter section is illustrated in 
Figure 6-3
