13.4.3.3 Data Sampling
The receiver samples the PTE1/RxD pin at the RT clock rate. The RT clock is an internal signal with a
frequency 16 times the baud rate. To adjust for baud rate mismatch, the RT clock is resynchronized at
the following times (see Figure 13-7):
• After every start bit
• After the receiver detects a data bit change from 1 to 0 (after the majority of data bit samples at
RT8, RT9, and RT10 returns a valid 1 and the majority of the next RT8, RT9, and RT10 samples
returns a valid 0)
To locate the start bit, data recovery logic does an asynchronous search for a 0 preceded by three 1s.
When the falling edge of a possible start bit occurs, the RT clock begins to count to 16.

Figure 13-7. Receiver Data Sampling
To verify the start bit and to detect noise, data recovery logic takes samples at RT3, RT5, and RT7.
Table 13-2 summarizes the results of the start bit verification samples.

Start bit verification is not successful if any two of the three verification samples are 1s. If start bit
verification is not successful, the RT clock is reset and a new search for a start bit begins.
