Break characters
Setting the SBKRQ bit transmits a break character. The break frame length depends on the
M bits (see Figure 268).
If a ‘1’ is written to the SBKRQ bit, a break character is sent on the TX line after completing
the current character transmission. The SBKF bit is set by the write operation and it is reset
by hardware when the break character is completed (during the stop bits after the break
character). The LPUART inserts a logic 1 signal (STOP) for the duration of 2 bits at the end
of the break frame to guarantee the recognition of the start bit of the next frame.
In the case the application needs to send the break character following all previously
inserted data, including the ones not yet transmitted, the software should wait for the TXE
flag assertion before setting the SBKRQ bit.
Idle characters
Setting the TE bit drives the LPUART to send an idle frame before the first data frame.
30.4.3 LPUART receiver
The LPUART can receive data words of either 7 or 8 or 9 bits depending on the M bits in the
LPUART_CR1 register.
Start bit detection
In LPUART, for START bit detection, a falling edge should be detected first on the Rx line,
then a sample is taken in the middle of the start bit to confirm that it is still ‘0’. If the start
sample is at ‘1’, then the noise error flag (NF) is set, then the START bit is discarded and the
receiver waits for a new START bit. Else, the receiver continues to sample all incoming bits
normally.
