Data Bit Sampling
After detecting a logic low, the a6850 samples and shifts the data into the
input shift register. Data bit sampling occurs on every rising edge in
divide-by-1 mode, every 16 rising edges in divide-by-16 mode, and every
64 rising edges in divide-by-64 mode. Each time a bit is sampled, parity is
calculated for future error detection. See
Parity & Stop Bit Detection
The a6850 counts the number of data bits as it shifts. When the number of
data bits received matches the number specified in the control register, the
a6850 expects either a parity bit or a stop bit.
If parity is enabled, the a6850 samples for the parity bit, which is then
processed for parity. However, if parity is not enabled, the a6850 samples
for a stop bit (i.e., logic high). If a logic low is sampled, the fe bit is set in
the status register.
