18.1
The BRG supports both the Asynchronous and
Synchronous modes of the USART. It is a dedicated
8-bit Baud Rate Generator. The SPBRG register
controls the period of a free running, 8-bit timer. In
Asynchronous mode, bit BRGH (TXSTA register) also
controls the baud rate. In Synchronous mode, bit
BRGH is ignored. Table 18-1 shows the formula for
computation of the baud rate for different USART
modes which only apply in Master mode (internal
clock).
Given the desired baud rate and F
integer value for the SPBRG register can be calculated
using the formula in Table 18-1. From this, the error in
baud rate can be determined.

Example 18-1 shows the calculation of the baud rate
error for the following conditions:
It may be advantageous to use the high baud rate
(BRGH = 1) even for slower baud clocks. This is
because the F
baud rate error in some cases.
Writing a new value to the SPBRG register causes the
BRG timer to be reset (or cleared). This ensures the
BRG does not wait for a timer overflow before
outputting the new baud rate.

The data on the RC7/RX/DT pin is sampled three times
by a majority detect circuit to determine if a high or a
low level is present at the RX pin.
