To locate the start bit, data recovery logic does an asynchronous search
for a logic 0 preceded by three logic 1s. When the falling edge of a
possible start bit occurs, the RT clock begins to count to 16.
To verify the start bit and to detect noise, data recovery logic takes
samples at RT3, RT5, and RT7. Table 14-1 summarizes the results of
the start bit verification samples.
If start bit verification is not successful, the RT clock is reset and a new
search for a start bit begins.
To determine the value of a data bit and to detect noise, recovery logic
takes samples at RT8, RT9, and RT10. Table 14-2 summarizes the
results of the data bit samples.
