>From my experience with serial communication this type error occurs when 
the Stop bit is not detected. The UART
device and software detects this event and an overrun codition is posted.

Solutions for this problem could be related to noise on the lines, to high 
of baud rate for the devices, devices are not setup with the same protocol 
(Start bit, and number of Stop Bits).
