Reception cannot be resumed while a receive error flag is set to 1. Accordingly, clear the OER, 
FER, PER, and RDRF bits to 0 before resuming reception. Figure 17.13 shows a sample flow 
chart for serial data reception.

[1]  Read the OER flag in SSR to determine if 
there is an error. If an overrun error has 
occurred, execute overrun error processing.
[2]  Read SSR and check that the RDRF flag is 
set to 1, then read the receive data in RDR. 
When data is read from RDR, the RDRF 
flag is automatically cleared to 0.
[3]  To continue serial reception, before the 
MSB (bit 7) of the current frame is received, 
reading the RDRF flag and reading RDR 
should be finished. When data is read from 
RDR, the RDRF flag is automatically 
cleared to 0.
[4]  If an overrun error occurs, read the OER 
flag in SSR, and after performing the 
appropriate error processing, clear the OER 
flag to 0. Reception cannot be resumed if 
the OER flag is set to 1.
