How does serin function?

hi thanks for that, could you elaborate on the parity bit? is this either a 1 or a zero? what calculation is there? i am planning on using 8N1 so it isnt vital but the parity may come in useful! Especially for fault tollerence.





thanks for your time,

The Parity bit can be either odd or even.
