• Bit 11:0 – UBRR11:0: USART Baud Rate Register
This is a 12-bit register which contains the USART baud rate. The UBRRH contains the
four most significant bits, and the UBRRL contains the eight least significant bits of the
USART baud rate. Ongoing transmissions by the transmitter and receiver will be cor-
rupted if the baud rate is changed. Writing UBRRL will trigger an immediate update of
the baud rate prescaler.
Examples of Baud Rate
Setting
For standard crystal and resonator frequencies, the most commonly used baud rates for
asynchronous operation can be generated by using the UBRR settings in Table 78.
UBRR values which yield an actual baud rate differing less than 0.5% from the target
baud rate, are bold in the table. Higher error ratings are acceptable, but the receiver will
have less noise resistance when the error ratings are high, especially for large serial
frames (see “Asynchronous Operational Range” on page 180). The error values are cal-
culated using the following equation:
