Table 30-8 gives the maximum time-out period for some standard baud rates.
30.6.3.9 Framing Error
The receiver is capable of detecting framing errors. A framing error happens when the stop bit of a received character is
detected at level 0. This can occur if the receiver and the transmitter are fully desynchronized.
A framing error is reported on the FRAME bit of the Channel Status Register (US_CSR). The FRAME bit is asserted in
the middle of the stop bit as soon as the framing error is detected. It is cleared by writing the Control Register (US_CR)
with the RSTSTA bit at 1.

30.6.3.10 Transmit Break
The user can request the transmitter to generate a break condition on the TXD line. A break condition drives the TXD line
low during at least one complete character. It appears the same as a 0x00 character sent with the parity and the stop bits
at 0. However, the transmitter holds the TXD line at least during one character until the user requests the break condition
to be removed.
