Figure 33-16 illustrates the effect of both the Start Break (STTBRK) and Stop Break (STPBRK) commands on the
TXD line.

33.6.3.11 Receive Break
The receiver detects a break condition when all data, parity and stop bits are low. This corresponds to detecting a
framing error with data at 0x00, but FRAME remains low.
When the low stop bit is detected, the receiver asserts the RXBRK bit in US_CSR. This bit may be cleared by
writing the Control Register (US_CR) with the bit RSTSTA at 1.
An end of receive break is detected by a high level for at least 2/16 of a bit period in asynchronous operating mode
or one sample at high level in synchronous operating mode. The end of break detection also asserts the RXBRK
bit.
33.6.3.12 Hardware Handshaking
The USART features a hardware handshaking out-of-band flow control. The RTS and CTS pins are used to
connect with the remote device, as shown in Figure 33-17.
Figure 33-17. Connection with a Remote Device for Hardware Handshaking
Setting the USART to operate with hardware handshaking is performed by writing the USART_MODE field in the
Mode Register (US_MR) to the value 0x2.
The USART behavior when hardware handshaking is enabled is the same as the behavior in standard
synchronous or asynchronous mode, except that the receiver drives the RTS pin as described below and the level
on the CTS pin modifies the behavior of the transmitter as described below. Using this mode requires using the
PDC channel for reception. The transmitter can handle hardware handshaking in any case.
