Break Character Reception

The receiver is always looking for a Break sequence and can detect one, even in the middle of a byte reception. A Break reception is indicated by the RXBKIF flag (UxSTAT[2]). An interrupt can be optionally generated by setting the RXBKIE bit (UxSTAT[10]). The Break detection criteria can be configured using the RXBIMD bit (UxCON[11]). By default, the RXBKIF flag will set when the line makes a low-to-high transition after 11 low bit times, signaling the end of the Break sequence. Alternatively, when RXBIMD = 1, the flag will set when the eleventh low bit time is detected.
