Receiving Frames with 9 Data
Bits
If 9-bit characters are used (UCSZ=7) the ninth bit must be read from the RXB8 bit in
UCSRB before reading the low bits from the UDR. This rule applies to the FE, DOR and
UPE Status Flags as well. Read status from UCSRA, then data from UDR. Reading the
UDR I/O location will change the state of the receive buffer FIFO and consequently the
TXB8, FE, DOR and UPE bits, which all are stored in the FIFO, will change.
The following code example shows a simple USART receive function that handles both
nine bit characters and the status bits.
Note: 1. The example code assumes that the part specific header file is included.
Assembly Code Example

USART_Receive:
; Wait for data to be received
sbis UCSRA, RXC
rjmp USART_Receive
; Get status and 9th bit, then data from buffer

in r17, UCSRB
in r16, UDR
; If error, return -1

USART_ReceiveNoError:
; Filter the 9th bit, then return
