13.3.3.3 Data Sampling
The receiver samples the RxD pin at the RT clock rate. The RT clock is an internal signal with a frequency
16 times the baud rate. To adjust for baud rate mismatch, the RT clock is resynchronized at these times
(see Figure 13-6):
After every start bit
After the receiver detects a data bit change from 1 to 0 (after the majority of data bit samples at
RT8, RT9, and RT10 returns a valid 1 and the majority of the next RT8, RT9, and RT10 samples
returns a valid 0)
To locate the start bit, data recovery logic does an asynchronous search for a 0 preceded by three 1s.
When the falling edge of a possible start bit occurs, the RT clock begins to count to 16.
Figure 13-6. Receiver Data Sampling
To verify the start bit and to detect noise, data recovery logic takes samples at RT3, RT5, and RT7.
Table 13-1 summarizes the results of the start bit verification samples.
If start bit verification is not successful, the RT clock is reset and a new search for a start bit begins.
To determine the value of a data bit and to detect noise, recovery logic takes samples at RT8, RT9, and
RT10. Table 13-2 summarizes the results of the data bit samples.
