11.9 USART COMMUNICATIONS

Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receive Transmit (USART) protocol is a stan-

dard 2-wire serial communication. In Asynchronous mode, there is a transmit line and

a receive line. In Synchronous mode, the transmit line becomes the clock line and the

receive line becomes the bidirectional data line. In Asynchronous mode, 8 bits are

framed by a Start and Stop bit. A ninth bit can be included to use as a parity bit.

To configure the protocol, set the clock polarity to rising edge or falling edge if using

Synchronous mode. Select the baud rate according to the BRG table.
