Signal description:
operation.
Internal clock generation is used for the asynchronous and the Synchronous Master modes of
operation. The description in this section refers to
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 system 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 counter reaches zero. This
clock is the baud rate generator clock output (= 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.
