25.1.2 FLEXCOM USART Timings update

The following table supersedes the “FLEXCOM USART Timings” table in the Electrical Characteristics section of the data sheet. This new table allows for greater USART speeds in Asynchronous mode.

fSCK

SCK frequency in Synchronous mode

(FLEX_US_MR.SYNC = 1)

Host or client25MHz
BR

Baud rate in Asynchronous mode(1)

(FLEX_US_MR.SYNC = 0)

FLEX_US_MR.OVER = 1fMCK1 / 8Mbps
FLEX_US_MR.OVER = 0fMCK1 / 16
Note:
  1. With fMCK1 = 200 MHz, the maximum baud rate is:

    BR = 200 / 8 = 25 Mbps (OVER = 1), or

    BR = 200 / 16 = 12.5 Mbps (OVER = 0)
