Drift Compensation
Drift compensation is available only in 16X oversampling mode. An hardware recovery system allows a larger clock drift.
To enable the hardware system, the bit in the USART_MAN register must be set. If the RXD edge is one 16X clock cycle
from the expected edge, this is considered as normal jitter and no corrective actions is taken. If the RXD event is
between 4 and 2 clock cycles before the expected edge, then the current period is shortened by one clock cycle. If the
RXD event is between 2 and 3 clock cycles after the expected edge, then the current period is lengthened by one clock
cycle. These intervals are considered to be drift and so corrective actions are automatically taken.

40.7.3.3 Asynchronous Receiver
If the USART is programmed in asynchronous operating mode (SYNC = 0), the receiver oversamples the RXD input line.
The oversampling is either 16 or 8 times the baud rate clock, depending on the OVER bit in the US_MR.
The receiver samples the RXD line. If the line is sampled during one half of a bit time to 0, a start bit is detected and data,
parity and stop bits are successively sampled on the bit rate clock.
If the oversampling is 16, (OVER to 0), a start is detected at the eighth sample to 0. Then, data bits, parity bit and stop bit
are sampled on each 16 sampling clock cycle. If the oversampling is 8 (OVER to 1), a start bit is detected at the fourth
sample to 0. Then, data bits, parity bit and stop bit are sampled on each 8 sampling clock cycle.
