32.7.2 Receiver and Transmitter Control
After reset, the receiver is disabled. The user must enable the receiver by setting the RXEN bit in the Control
Register (US_CR). However, the receiver registers can be programmed before the receiver clock is enabled.
After reset, the transmitter is disabled. The user must enable it by setting the TXEN bit in the Control Register
(US_CR). However, the transmitter registers can be programmed before being enabled.
The Receiver and the Transmitter can be enabled together or independently.
At any time, the software can perform a reset on the receiver or the transmitter of the USART by setting the
corresponding bit, RSTRX and RSTTX respectively, in the Control Register (US_CR). The software resets clear
the status flag and reset internal state machines but the user interface configuration registers hold the value
configured prior to software reset. Regardless of what the receiver or the transmitter is performing, the
communication is immediately stopped.
The user can also independently disable the receiver or the transmitter by setting RXDIS and TXDIS respectively
in US_CR. If the receiver is disabled during a character reception, the USART waits until the end of reception of
the current character, then the reception is stopped. If the transmitter is disabled while it is operating, the USART
waits the end of transmission of both the current character and character being stored in the Transmit Holding
Register (US_THR). If a timeguard is programmed, it is handled normally.
32.7.3 Synchronous and Asynchronous Modes
32.7.3.1 Transmitter Operations
The transmitter performs the same in both synchronous and asynchronous operating modes (SYNC = 0 or SYNC
= 1). One start bit, up to 9 data bits, one optional parity bit and up to two stop bits are successively shifted out on
the TXD pin at each falling edge of the programmed serial clock.
The number of data bits is selected by the CHRL field and the MODE 9 bit in the Mode Register (US_MR). Nine
bits are selected by setting the MODE 9 bit regardless of the CHRL field. The parity bit is set according to the PAR
field in US_MR. The even, odd, space, marked or none parity bit can be configured. The MSBF field in US_MR
configures which data bit is sent first. If written at 1, the most significant bit is sent first. At 0, the less significant bit
is sent first. The number of stop bits is selected by the NBSTOP field in US_MR. The 1.5 stop bit is supported in
asynchronous mode only.
