Read Access
154
ATmega8515(L)
Doing a read access to the UBRRH or the UCSRC Register is a more complex opera-
tion. However, in most applications, it is rarely necessary to read any of these registers.
The read access is controlled by a timed sequence. Reading the I/O location once
returns the UBRRH Register contents. If the register location was read in previous sys-
tem clock cycle, reading the register in the current clock cycle will return the UCSRC
contents. Note that the timed sequence for reading the UCSRC is an atomic operation.
Interrupts must therefore be controlled (e.g., by disabling interrupts globally) during the
read operation.
The following code example shows how to read the UCSRC Register contents.
Note:
The assembly code example returns the UCSRC value in r16.
Reading the UBRRH contents is not an atomic operation and therefore it can be read as
an ordinary register, as long as the previous instruction did not access the register
location.
Assembly Code Example
C Code Example
USART_ReadUCSRC:
unsigned char USART_ReadUCSRC( void )
{
}
; Read UCSRC
in r16,UBRRH
in r16,UCSRC
ret
unsigned char ucsrc;
/* Read UCSRC */
ucsrc = UBRRH;
ucsrc = UCSRC;
return ucsrc;
