Receiving Frames with
9 Data Bits
If 9-bit characters are used (UCSZn=7) the ninth bit must be read from the RXB8n bit in UCS-
RnB before reading the low bits from the UDR. This rule applies to the FEn, DORn, and UPE
status flags as well. Read status from UCSRnA, then data from UDRn. Reading the UDRn I/O
location will change the state of the receive buffer FIFO and consequently the TXB8n, FEn,
DORn, and UPEn bits, which all are stored in the FIFO, will change. The following code example
shows a simple USART receive function that handles both nine bit characters and the status
bits.
Note: 1. See “About Code Examples” on page 9.

C Code Example

unsigned int USART_Receive( void )
{
unsigned char status, resh, resl;
/* Wait for data to be received */

/* from buffer */

/* If error, return -1 */
if ( status & (1<<FEn)|(1<<DORn)|(1<<UPEn) )
return -1;
/* Filter the ninth bit, then return */
resh = (resh >> 1) & 0x01;
return ((resh << 8) | resl);
