Asynchronous Data Reception
ATmega16A
Disabling the Receiver
Flushing the Receive Buffer
Asynchronous Clock Recovery
The PE bit is set if the next character that can be read from the receive buffer had a parity error
when received and the parity checking was enabled at that point (UPM1 = 1). This bit is valid
until the receive buffer (UDR) is read.
In contrast to the Transmitter, disabling of the Receiver will be immediate. Data from ongoing
receptions will therefore be lost. When disabled (i.e., the RXEN is set to zero) the Receiver will
no longer override the normal function of the RxD port pin. The receiver buffer FIFO will be
flushed when the receiver is disabled. Remaining data in the buffer will be lost
The receiver buffer FIFO will be flushed when the Receiver is disabled, i.e., the buffer will be
emptied of its contents. Unread data will be lost. If the buffer has to be flushed during normal
operation, due to for instance an error condition, read the UDR I/O location until the RXC Flag is
cleared. The following code example shows how to flush the receive buffer.
Note:
The USART includes a clock recovery and a data recovery unit for handling asynchronous data
reception. The clock recovery logic is used for synchronizing the internally generated baud rate
clock to the incoming asynchronous serial frames at the RxD pin. The data recovery logic sam-
ples and low pass filters each incoming bit, thereby improving the noise immunity of the receiver.
The asynchronous reception operational range depends on the accuracy of the internal baud
rate clock, the rate of the incoming frames, and the frame size in number of bits.
The clock recovery logic synchronizes internal clock to the incoming serial frames.
illustrates the sampling process of the start bit of an incoming frame. The sample rate is 16 times
the baud rate for Normal mode, and 8 times the baud rate for Double Speed mode. The horizon-
tal arrows illustrate the synchronization variation due to the sampling process. Note the larger
time variation when using the double speed mode (U2X = 1) of operation. Samples denoted zero
are samples done when the RxD line is idle (i.e., no communication activity).
