9.3 U-TIMER Operation
9.3 U-TIMER Operation
This section explains how to calculate the U-TIMER baud rate and also explains the
cascade mode.
■
Calculating the Baud Rate
The UART uses the underflow flip-flop (f.f. in the figure) of the corresponding U-TIMER (U-
TIMERx --> UARTx, x = 0, 1, 2) as the baud rate clock source.
❍
Asynchronous (start-stop) mode
The UART uses the U-TIMER output by dividing it by 16.
❍
CLK synchronous mode
■
Cascade Mode
U-TIMER channels 0 and 1 can be used in cascade mode. Figure 9.3-1 shows an example of
cascade mode in which UTIMR channel 0 is set to 0100 and UTIMR channel 1 is set to 0002.
