WT: Character waiting time value expressed in
ETU (0 / 16777215).
The CRDWT0, CRDWT1 and CRDWT2 registers
hold the load value of the Waiting Time counter.
Note: A read operation does not return the counter
value.
This counter can be used as a general purpose
timer.
If the WTEN bit of the CRDCR register is reset, the
counter is reloaded when a write access in the
CRDWT2 register occurs. It starts when the
WTEN bit is set.
If the WTEN bit in the CRDCR register is set and if
UART mode is activated, the counter acts as an
autoreload timer. The timer is reloaded when a
start bit is sent or detected. An interrupt is generat-
ed if the timer overflows between two consecutive
start bits.
Note: When loaded with a 0 value, the Waiting
Time counter stays at 0 and the WTF bit = 1.
