NF — Noise Error Flag 
NF is set if majority sample logic detects anything other than a unanimous 
decision. Clear NF by reading SCSR with NF set and then reading SCDR. 
0 = Unanimous decision 
1 = Noise detected 
FE — Framing Error Flag
FE is set when a 0 is detected where a stop bit was expected. Clear the FE flag 
by reading SCSR with FE set and then reading SCDR. 
0 = Stop bit detected 
1 = Zero detected 
Bit 0 — Unimplemented 
Always reads 0 
7.7.5  Baud Rate Register 
Use this register to select different baud rates for the SCI system. The SCP[1:0] 
(SCP[2:0] in MC68HC(7)11E20) bits function as a prescaler for the SCR[2:0] bits. 
Together, these five bits provide multiple baud rate combinations for a given crystal 
frequency. Normally, this register is written once during initialization. The prescaler 
is set to its fastest rate by default out of reset and can be changed at any time. 
Refer to 
Table 7-1
 for normal baud rate selections.

SCP[2:0] — SCI Baud Rate Prescaler Select Bits
NOTE:
SCP2 applies to MC68HC(7)11E20 only. When SCP2 = 1, SCP[1:0] must equal 0s. 
Any other values for SCP[1:0] are not decoded in the prescaler and the results are 
unpredictable. Refer to 
Figure 7-8
