updates the transmitter register, while a read from SBUF reads a buffer that is updated by the receiver register if/ when flag RI is reset. The receiver is double buffered to eliminate the overrun that would occur ifthe CPU failed to respond to the receiver's interrupt before the beginning of the next frame. In general double buffering of the transmitter is not needed for the high performance 8051 to maintain the serial link at its maximum rate. A minor degradation in data rate can occur in rare events. such as when the servicing of the transmittter has to wait for a lengthy interrupt service program to complete. In asynchronous mode, false start-bit rejection is provided on received frames. A two-out-of-three vote is taken on each received bit for noise rejection. The serial port's control and the monitoring of its status is provided by the serial port control register (SCON). The contents of the 8-bit SCON register are shown in Figure 2.49.
