The baud rate is calculated with the following formula:
The baud rate error is calculated with the following formula. It is not recommended to work with an error higher
than 5%.
31.6.1.3 Fractional Baud Rate in Asynchronous Mode
The Baud Rate generator previously defined is subject to the following limitation: the output frequency changes by
only integer multiples of the reference frequency. An approach to this problem is to integrate a fractional N clock
generator that has a high resolution. The generator architecture is modified to obtain Baud Rate changes by a
fraction of the reference source clock. This fractional part is programmed with the FP field in the Baud Rate
Generator Register (US_BRGR). If FP is not 0, the fractional part is activated. The resolution is one eighth of the
clock divider. This feature is only available when using USART normal mode. The fractional Baud Rate is
calculated using the following formula:
