31.4.2.3 Idle Character Formats
An idle character is a sequence of bits with the value 1. The supported idle character formats are specified
in Table 31-18. The preamble has the same structure and content as an idle character.
The structure and content of the SCI idle characters is shown in Figure 31-22.

31.4.3 Baud Rate and Clock Generation
A 13-bit modulus counter in the baud rate generator derives the baud rate for both the receiver and the
transmitter. The value written to the SBR field in the eSCI Baud Rate Register (eSCI_BRR) determines
the module clock divisor. The baud rate clock is synchronized with the bus clock and drives the receiver.
The baud rate clock divided by 16 drives the transmitter. The receiver has an acquisition rate of 16 samples
per bit time.
