• Bits 5:4 – UPMn1:0: Parity Mode
These bits enable and set type of parity generation and check. If enabled, the Transmitter will automatically
generate and send the parity of the transmitted data bits within each frame. The Receiver will generate a parity
value for the incoming data and compare it to the UPMn setting. If a mismatch is detected, the UPEn Flag in
UCSRnA will be set.
• Bit 3 – USBSn: Stop Bit Select
This bit selects the number of stop bits to be inserted by the Transmitter. The Receiver ignores this setting.
• Bit 2:1 – UCSZn1:0: Character Size
The UCSZn1:0 bits combined with the UCSZn2 bit in UCSRnB sets the number of data bits (Character SiZe) in
a frame the Receiver and Transmitter use.
• Bit 0 – UCPOLn: Clock Polarity
This bit is used for synchronous mode only. Write this bit to zero when asynchronous mode is used. The
UCPOLn bit sets the relationship between data output change and data input sample, and the synchronous
clock (XCKn).
