Bits 25:24 – LINCMD[1:0] LIN Command
These bits define the LIN header transmission control. This field is only valid in LIN host mode (CTRLA.FORM= LIN Host).
These are strobe bits and will always read back as zero.
- This bit field is write-synchronized: SYNCBUSY.CTRLB must be checked to ensure the CTRLB.LINCMD synchronization is complete.
- This bit field is enable-protected.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0x0 | Normal USART transmission. |
0x1 | Break field is transmitted when DATA is written. |
0x2 | Break, sync and identifier are automatically transmitted when DATA is written with the identifier. |
0x3 | Reserved |
Bit 17 – RXEN Receiver Enable
Writing '0' to this bit will disable the USART receiver. Disabling the receiver will flush the receive buffer and clear the FERR, PERR and BUFOVF bits in the STATUS register.
Writing '1' to CTRLB.RXEN when the USART is disabled will set CTRLB.RXEN immediately. When the USART is enabled, CTRLB.RXEN will be cleared, and SYNCBUSY.CTRLB will be set and remain set until the receiver is enabled. When the receiver is enabled, CTRLB.RXEN will read back as '1'.
Writing '1' to CTRLB.RXEN when the USART is enabled will set SYNCBUSY.CTRLB, which will remain set until the receiver is enabled, and CTRLB.RXEN will read back as '1'.
- This bit is write-synchronized: SYNCBUSY.CTRLB must be checked to ensure the CTRLB.RXEN synchronization is complete.
- This bit is not enable-protected.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | The receiver is disabled or being enabled. |
1 | The receiver is enabled or will be enabled when the USART is enabled. |
Bit 16 – TXEN Transmitter Enable
Writing '0' to this bit will disable the USART transmitter. Disabling the transmitter will not become effective until ongoing and pending transmissions are completed.
Writing '1' to CTRLB.TXEN when the USART is disabled will set CTRLB.TXEN immediately. When the USART is enabled, CTRLB.TXEN will be cleared, and SYNCBUSY.CTRLB will be set and remain set until the transmitter is enabled. When the transmitter is enabled, CTRLB.TXEN will read back as '1'.
Writing '1' to CTRLB.TXEN when the USART is enabled will set SYNCBUSY.CTRLB, which will remain set until the transmitter is enabled, and CTRLB.TXEN will read back as '1'.
- This bit is write-synchronized: SYNCBUSY.CTRLB must be checked to ensure the CTRLB.TXEN synchronization is complete.
- This bit is not enable-protected.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | The transmitter is disabled or being enabled. |
1 | The transmitter is enabled or will be enabled when the USART is enabled. |
Bit 13 – PMODE Parity Mode
This bit selects the type of parity used when parity is enabled (CTRLA.FORM is '1'). The transmitter will automatically generate and send the parity of the transmitted data bits within each frame. The receiver will generate a parity value for the incoming data and parity bit, compare it to the parity mode and, if a mismatch is detected, STATUS.PERR will be set.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | Even parity. |
1 | Odd parity. |
Bit 10 – ENC Encoding Format
This bit selects the data encoding format.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | Data is not encoded. |
1 | Data is IrDA encoded. |
Bit 9 – SFDE Start of Frame Detection Enable
This bit controls whether the start-of-frame detector will wake up the device when a start bit is detected on the RxD line.
SFDE | INTENSET.RXS | INTENSET.RXC | Description |
---|---|---|---|
0 | X | X | Start-of-frame detection disabled. |
1 | 0 | 0 | Reserved |
1 | 0 | 1 | Start-of-frame detection enabled. RXC wakes up the device from all sleep modes. |
1 | 1 | 0 | Start-of-frame detection enabled. RXS wakes up the device from all sleep modes. |
1 | 1 | 1 | Start-of-frame detection enabled. Both RXC and RXS wake up the device from all sleep modes. |
Bit 8 – COLDEN Collision Detection Enable
This bit enables collision detection.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | Collision detection is not enabled. |
1 | Collision detection is enabled. |
Bit 6 – SBMODE Stop Bit Mode
This bit selects the number of stop bits transmitted.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | One stop bit. |
1 | Two stop bits. |
Bits 2:0 – CHSIZE[2:0] Character Size
These bits select the number of bits in a character.
CHSIZE[2:0] | Description |
---|---|
0x0 | 8 bits |
0x1 | 9 bits |
0x2-0x4 | Reserved |
0x5 | 5 bits |
0x6 | 6 bits |
0x7 | 7 bits |
