Universal synchronous asynchronous receiver transmitter (USART) RM0008
780/1096 Doc ID 13902 Rev 12
Note: 1 The CK pin works in conjunction with the TX pin. Thus, the clock is provided only if the
transmitter is enabled (TE=1) and a data is being transmitted (the data register USART_DR
has been written). This means that it is not possible to receive a synchronous data without
transmitting data.
2 The LBCL, CPOL and CPHA bits have to be selected when both the transmitter and the
receiver are disabled (TE=RE=0) to ensure that the clock pulses function correctly. These
bits should not be changed while the transmitter or the receiver is enabled.
3 It is advised that TE and RE are set in the same instruction in order to minimize the setup
and the hold time of the receiver.
4 The USART supports master mode only: it cannot receive or send data related to an input
clock (CK is always an output).
