• Bit 2:1 – UCSZ1:0: Character Size
The UCSZ1:0 bits combined with the UCSZ2 bit in UCSRB sets the number of data bits (Char-
acter Size) in a frame the Receiver and Transmitter use.
• Bit 0 – UCPOL: Clock Polarity
This bit is used for Synchronous mode only. Write this bit to zero when Asynchronous mode is
used. The UCPOL bit sets the relationship between data output change and data input sample,
and the synchronous clock (XCK).
USART Baud Rate
Registers – UBRRL
and UBRRH
The UBRRH Register shares the same I/O location as the UCSRC Register. See the “Accessing
UBRRH/ UCSRC Registers” on page 162 section which describes how to access this register.
• Bit 15 – URSEL: Register Select
This bit selects between accessing the UBRRH or the UCSRC Register. It is read as zero when
reading UBRRH. The URSEL must be zero when writing the UBRRH.
• Bit 14:12 – Reserved Bits
These bits are reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, these bit must be
written to zero when UBRRH is written.
