parity bit is generated and transmitted following the eight
data bits.
Figure 80. 8-Bit Data Frame Options
The format shown in Figure 81 consists of one start bit, nine
data bits, and one or two stop bits. This format also supports
the UART attention feature. When operating in this format,
all eight bits of UnTBUF and UnRBUF are used for data.
The ninth data bit is transmitted and received using two bits
in the control registers, called UXB9 and URB9. Parity is not
generated or verified in this mode.

22.2.6 Baud Rate Generator
The Baud Rate Generator creates the basic baud clock from
the System Clock. The System Clock is passed through a
two-stage divider chain consisting of a 5-bit baud rate pres-
caler (UnPSC) and an 11-bit baud rate divisor (UnDIV).
The relationship between the 5-bit prescaler select (UnP-
SC) setting and the prescaler factors is shown in Table 69.
A prescaler factor of zero corresponds to “no clock.” The “no
clock” condition is the UART power down mode, in which the
UART clock is turned off to reduce power consumption.
Software must select the “no clock” condition before enter-
ing a new baud rate. Otherwise, it could cause incorrect
data to be received or transmitted. The UnPSR register
must contain a value other than zero when an external clock
is used at CKX.

The UART is capable of generating interrupts on:
