17.7.3 Asynchronous Operational Range
The operational range of the receiver is dependent on the mismatch between the received bit rate and the internally
generated baud rate. If the transmitter is sending frames at too fast or too slow bit rates, or the internally generated baud rate
of the receiver does not have a similar (see Table 17-2) base frequency, the Receiver will not be able to synchronize the
frames to the start bit.
The following equations can be used to calculate the ratio of the incoming data rate and internal receiver baud rate.
D Sum of character size and parity size (D = 5 to 10 bit)
S Samples per bit. S = 16 for normal speed mode and S = 8 for double speed mode.

R
slow
is the ratio of the slowest incoming data rate that can be accepted in relation to the
receiver baud rate. R
fast
is the ratio of the fastest incoming data rate that can be
accepted in relation to the receiver baud rate.
Table 17-2 and Table 17-3 list the maximum receiver baud rate error that can be tolerated. Note that normal speed mode has
higher toleration of baud rate variations.
The recommendations of the maximum receiver baud rate error was made under the assumption that the receiver and
transmitter equally divides the maximum total error.
There are two possible sources for the receivers baud rate error. The receiver’s system clock (XTAL) will always have some
minor instability over the supply voltage range and the temperature range. When using a crystal to generate the system
clock, this is rarely a problem, but for a resonator the system clock may differ more than 2% depending of the resonators
