19.3.8 Bit Rate Register (SCBRR)
The bit rate register (SCBRR) is an 8-bit register that, together with the baud rate generator clock
source selected by the CKS1 and CKS0 bits in the serial mode register (SCSMR), determines the
serial transmit/receive bit rate.
The CPU can always read and write to SCBRR. SCBRR is initialized to H'FF by a power-on reset.
Each channel has independent baud rate generator control, so different values can be set in three
channels.
The SCBRR setting is calculated as follows:
• Asynchronous mode:
N = × 10
6
- 1
64 × 2
2n-1
× B
Pφ
• Synchronous mode:
N = × 10
6
- 1
8 × 2
2n-1
× B
Pφ
B: Bit rate (bits/s)
N: SCBRR setting for baud rate generator (0 ≤ N ≤ 255)
Pφ: Operating frequency for peripheral modules (MHz)
n: Baud rate generator clock source (n = 0, 1, 2, 3) (for the clock sources and values of
n, see table 19.2.)

SCSMR Settings
n Clock Source CKS1 CKS0
0 Pφ 0 0
1 Pφ/4 0 1
2 Pφ/16 1 0
3 Pφ/64 1 1
Note: The bit rate error in asynchronous is given by the following formula:
Error (%) = - 1 × 100
(N + 1) × B × 64

× 2
Pφ × 10
