True Start Detection
The USART is configured for asynchronous operation when SYNC = 0 (bit 7 of
US_MR). In Asynchronous Mode, the USART detects the start of a received character
by sampling the RXD signal until it detects a valid start bit. A low level (space) on RXD is
interpreted as a valid start bit if it is detected for more than 7 cycles of the sampling
clock, which is 16 times the baud rate. Hence a space which is longer than 7/16 of the
bit period is detected as a valid start bit. A space which is 7/16 of a bit period or shorter
is ignored and the receiver continues to wait for a valid start bit.
When a valid start bit has been detected, the receiver samples the RXD at the theoreti-
cal mid-point of each bit. It is assumed that each bit lasts 16 cycles of the sampling clock
(one bit period) so the sampling point is 8 cycles (0.5 bit periods) after the start of the bit.
The first sampling point is therefore 24 cycles (1.5 bit periods) after the falling edge of
the start bit was detected. Each subsequent bit is sampled 16 cycles (1 bit period) after
the previous one.
