The receive-data buffer is user accessible and contains the last received
character from the receive shift register. Reading UCAxRXBUF resets the
receive-error bits, the UCADDR or UCIDLE bit, and UCRXIFG. In 7-bit data
mode, UCAxRXBUF is LSB justified and the MSB is always reset.

The transmit data buffer is user accessible and holds the data waiting to be
moved into the transmit shift register and transmitted on UCAxTXD. Writing to
the transmit data buffer clears UCTXIFG. The MSB of UCAxTXBUF is not used
for 7-bit data and is reset.
