Clock Generation
Internal Clock Generation –
The Baud Rate Generator
76
ATmega323(L)
The Clock Generation Logic generates the base clock for the Transmitter and Receiver.
The USART supports four modes of clock operation: Normal asynchronous, Double
Speed asynchronous, Master synchronous and Slave synchronous mode. The UMSEL
bit in USART Control and Status Register C (UCSRC) selects between asynchronous
and synchronous operation. Double Speed (asynchronous mode only) is controlled by
the U2X found in the UCSRA Register. When using synchronous mode (UMSEL = 1),
the Data Direction Register for the XCK pin (DDR_XCK) controls whether the clock
source is internal (Master mode) or external (Slave mode). The XCK pin is only active
when using synchronous mode.
Figure 46 shows a block diagram of the clock generation logic.

Signal description:
Internal clock generation is used for the asynchronous and the synchronous Master
modes of operation. The description in this section refers to Figure 46.
The USART Baud Rate Register (UBRR) and the down-counter connected to it function
as a programmable prescaler or baud rate generator. The down-counter, running at sys-
tem clock (fosc), is loaded with the UBRR value each time the counter has counted
down to zero or when the UBRRL Register is written. A clock is generated each time the
count er re aches zero. Thi s clock is t he b aud rate generat or clock o utput
(= fosc/(UBRR+1)). The Transmitter divides the baud rate generator clock output by 2,
8, or 16 depending on mode. The baud rate generator output is used directly by the
Receiver’s clock and data recovery units. However, the recovery units use a state
machine that uses 2, 8, or 16 states depending on mode set by the state of the UMSEL,
U2X and DDR_XCK bits.
