ATmega162/V

2513E–AVR–09/03

UDRE is set after a Reset to indicate that the transmitter is ready.

• Bit 4 – FE: Frame Error

This bit is set if the next character in the receive buffer had a Frame Error when
received. I.e., when the first stop bit of the next character in the receive buffer is zero.
This bit is valid until the receive buffer (UDR) is read. The FE bit is zero when the stop
bit of received data is one. Always set this bit to zero when writing to UCSRA.

• Bit 3 – DOR: Data OverRun

This bit is set if a Data OverRun condition is detected. A data overrun occurs when the
receive buffer is full (two characters), it is a new character waiting in the reCeive Shift
Register, and a new start bit is detected. This bit is valid until the receive buffer (UDR) is
read. Always set this bit to zero when writing to UCSRA.

• Bit 2 – UPE: Parity Error

This bit is set if the next character in the receive buffer had a Parity Error when received
and the Parity Checking was enabled at that point (UPM1 = 1). This bit is valid until the
receive buffer (UDR) is read. Always set this bit to zero when writing to UCSRA.

• Bit 1 – U2X: Double the USART Transmission Speed

This bit only has effect for the asynchronous operation. Write this bit to zero when using
synchronous operation.

Writing this bit to one will reduce the divisor of the baud rate divider from 16 to 8 effec-
tively doubling the transfer rate for asynchronous communication.

• Bit 0 – MPCM: Multi-processor Communication Mode

This bit enables the Multi-processor Communication mode. When the MPCM bit is writ-
ten to one, all the incoming frames received by the USART receiver that do not contain
address information will be ignored. The transmitter is unaffected by the MPCM setting.
For more detailed information see “Multi-processor Communication Mode” on page 181.

USART Control and Status
Register B – UCSRB

• Bit 7 – RXCIE: RX Complete Interrupt Enable

Writing this bit to one enables interrupt on the RXC Flag. A USART Receive Complete
interrupt will be generated only if the RXCIE bit is written to one, the Global Interrupt
Flag in SREG is written to one and the RXC bit in UCSRA is set.

• Bit 6 – TXCIE: TX Complete Interrupt Enable

Writing this bit to one enables interrupt on the TXC Flag. A USART Transmit Complete
interrupt will be generated only if the TXCIE bit is written to one, the Global Interrupt
Flag in SREG is written to one and the TXC bit in UCSRA is set.
