35.7.3.12 Framing Error
The receiver is capable of detecting framing errors. A framing error happens when the stop bit of a received
character is detected at level 0. This can occur if the receiver and the transmitter are fully desynchronized.
A framing error is reported on the FRAME bit of the Channel Status Register (US_CSR). The FRAME bit is
asserted in the middle of the stop bit as soon as the framing error is detected. It is cleared by writing the Control
Register (US_CR) with the RSTSTA bit to 1.

35.7.3.13 Transmit Break
The user can request the transmitter to generate a break condition on the TXD line. A break condition drives the
TXD line low during at least one complete character. It appears the same as a 0x00 character sent with the parity
and the stop bits to 0. However, the transmitter holds the TXD line at least during one character until the user
requests the break condition to be removed.
A break is transmitted by writing the Control Register (US_CR) with the STTBRK bit to 1. This can be performed at
any time, either while the transmitter is empty (no character in either the Shift Register or in US_THR) or when a
character is being transmitted. If a break is requested while a character is being shifted out, the character is first
completed before the TXD line is held low.
Once STTBRK command is requested further STTBRK commands are ignored until the end of the break is
completed.
The break condition is removed by writing US_CR with the STPBRK bit to 1. If the STPBRK is requested before
the end of the minimum break duration (one character, including start, data, parity and stop bits), the transmitter
ensures that the break condition completes.
