•
The UnIIR ABTOInt interrupt will get set if the interrupt is enabled (UnIER ABToIntEn
is set and the auto-baud rate measurement counter overflows).
•
The UnIIR ABEOInt interrupt will get set if the interrupt is enabled (UnIER ABEOIntEn
is set and the auto-baud has completed successfully).
The auto-baud interrupts have to be cleared by setting the corresponding UnACR
ABTOIntClr and ABEOIntEn bits.
Typically the fractional baud-rate generator is disabled (DIVADDVAL = 0) during
auto-baud. However, if the fractional baud-rate generator is enabled (DIVADDVAL > 0), it
is going to impact the measuring of UARTn Rx pin baud-rate, but the value of the UnFDR
register is not going to be modified after rate measurement. Also, when auto-baud is used,
any write to UnDLM and UnDLL registers should be done before UnACR register write.
The minimum and the maximum baudrates supported by UARTn are function of
BASE_UART_CLK (UARTCLK), number of data bits, stop bits and parity bits.

4.12.2 Auto-baud modes
When the software is expecting an ”AT" command, it configures the UARTn with the
expected character format and sets the UnACR Start bit. The initial values in the divisor
latches UnDLM and UnDLM don‘t care. Because of the ”A" or ”a" ASCII coding
(”A" = 0x41, ”a" = 0x61), the UARTn Rx pin sensed start bit and the LSB of the expected
character are delimited by two falling edges. When the UnACR Start bit is set, the
auto-baud protocol will execute the following phases:
1. On UnACR Start bit setting, the baud-rate measurement counter is reset and the
UARTn UnRSR is reset. The UnRSR baud rate is switch to the highest rate.
2. A falling edge on UARTn Rx pin triggers the beginning of the start bit. The rate
measuring counter will start counting BASE_UART_CLK cycles optionally pre-scaled
by the fractional baud-rate generator.
3. During the receipt of the start bit, 16 pulses are generated on the RSR baud input with
the frequency of the (fractional baud-rate pre-scaled) UARTn input clock,
guaranteeing the start bit is stored in the UnRSR.
4. During the receipt of the start bit (and the character LSB for mode = 0) the rate
counter will continue incrementing with the pre-scaled UARTn input clock
(BASE_UART_CLK).
5. If Mode = 0 then the rate counter will stop on next falling edge of the UARTn Rx pin. If
Mode = 1 then the rate counter will stop on the next rising edge of the UARTn Rx pin.
6. The rate counter is loaded into UnDLM/UnDLL and the baud-rate will be switched to
normal operation. After setting the UnDLM/UnDLL the end of auto-baud interrupt
UnIIR ABEOInt will be set, if enabled. The UnRSR will now continue receiving the
remaining bits of the ”A/a" character.
