Here the BGRn register needs to be configured with the value of 0x0007. So the deviation in the baud rate as per
USART chapter in the hardware manual is 0. But the CLKMOD would also have an impact on this deviation of baud
rate.
Lets also consider that the character format is 8E1 that means one USART character contains 11 bits (1 Start bit + 8
Data bits + 1 Even Parity bit + 1 Stop bit).
If the data that needs to be transmitted is 0x00, the parity bit would also be zero and the USART output should
remain at low level for period of 10 bits. These 10 bits corresponds to the 80 clock periods (cycles) of CLKMOD.
Let’s also consider that the clock modulator is configured for the resolution of 11 and modulation degree of 1 then the
“± phase skew min/max” would be 7.875. This means that the 80 clock periods would be either shortened to 72.125
clock periods or may get lengthened to 87.875 clock period that is the error of up to 1 bit. This may cause parity error
or framing error respectively at the receiver.
