Figure 19.19 Receive Data Sampling Timing in Asynchronous Mode
The receive margin in asynchronous mode can therefore be expressed as shown in equation 1.
Equation 1:
M = (0.5 - ) = (L - 0.5) F - (1+F) × 100 %

2N
D - 0.5
N
Where: M: Receive margin (%)
N: Ratio of clock frequency to bit rate (N = 16)
D: Clock duty cycle (D = 0 to 1.0)
L: Frame length (L = 9 to 12)
F: Absolute deviation of clock frequency
From equation 1, if F = 0 and D = 0.5, the receive margin is 46.875%, as given by equation 2.
Equation 2:
When D = 0.5 and F = 0:
M = (0.5 – 1/(2 × 16)) × 100%
= 46.875%
This is a theoretical value. A reasonable margin to allow in system designs is 20% to 30%.
