The baud rate is calculated with the following formula (OVER=0):
The baud rate error is calculated with the following formula. It is not recommended to work with
an error higher than 5%.
20.6.1.3 Fractional Baud Rate in Asynchronous Mode
The baud rate generator has a limitation: the source frequency is always a multiple of the baud
rate. An approach to this problem is to integrate a high resolution fractional N clock generator,
outputting fractional multiples of the reference source clock. This fractional part is selected with
the Fractional Part field (BRGR.FP), and is activated by giving it a non-zero value. The resolu-
tion is one eighth of CD. The resulting baud rate is calculated using the following formula:
The modified architecture is presented below:
