The uC's frequency has to be at least 4x the frequency generated by the bit
clock. A bit clock of 1 corresponds to 1 micro second, so that gives you
1MHz, and will work with uC's running at 4MHz or faster.
To get the fastest bit clock value that should work, divide 4 by the
frequency of the uC in MHz. E.g. If the uC is clocked at 16MHz try 0.25 and
for 8MHz try 0.5.
For a bit clock of 0.1 the uC would need a clock at 40MHz or faster, and for
a bit clock of 0.15 it would need a clock at 27MHz (rounded up) or faster.
