In Figure 8-18, a large burst of noise is perceived as the beginning of a start bit, although the test sample
at RT5 is high. The RT5 sample sets the noise flag. Although this is a worst-case misalignment of
perceived bit time, the data samples RT8, RT9, and RT10 are within the bit time and data recovery is
successful.

Figure 8-19 shows the effect of noise early in the start bit time. Although this noise does not affect proper
synchronization with the start bit time, it does set the noise flag.
