22.1. Enhanced Baud Rate Generation
The UART1 baud rate is generated by Timer 1 in 8-bit auto-reload mode. The TX clock is generated by
TL1; the RX clock is generated by a copy of TL1 (shown as RX Timer in Figure 22.2), which is not user-
accessible. Both TX and RX Timer overflows are divided by two to generate the TX and RX baud rates.
The RX Timer runs when Timer 1 is enabled, and uses the same reload value (TH1). However, an
RX Timer reload is forced when a START condition is detected on the RX pin. This allows a receive to
begin any time a START is detected, independent of the TX Timer state.
Figure 22.2. UART1 Baud Rate Logic
Timer 1 should be configured for Mode 2, 8-bit auto-reload (see
Section “23.1.3. Mode 2: 8-bit Counter/
Timer with Auto-Reload” on page 311
). The Timer 1 reload value should be set so that overflows will
occur at two times the desired baud rate. Note that Timer 1 may be clocked by one of five sources:
SYSCLK, SYSCLK / 4, SYSCLK / 12, SYSCLK / 48, or the external oscillator clock / 8. For any given
Timer 1 clock source, the UART1 baud rate is determined by Equation 22.1.
Where
T1
CLK
is the frequency of the clock supplied to Timer 1, and
T1H
is the high byte of Timer 1 (reload
value). Timer 1 clock frequency is selected as described in
Section “23.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1” on
. A quick reference for typical baud rates and system clock frequencies is given in Table 22.1
through Table 22.5. Note that the internal oscillator or PLL may still generate the system clock when the
external oscillator is driving Timer 1 (see
Section “23.1. Timer 0 and Timer 1” on page 309
for more
details).
