13 UART PORT CONTROLLERS
This chapter describes the Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter
(UART) modules. Following an overview and a list of key features is a
description of operation. The chapter concludes with a programming
model, consolidated register definitions, and programming examples.
Overview
The processor features two separate and identical UART modules.
The UART modules are full-duplex peripherals compatible with PC-style
industry-standard UARTs, sometimes called Serial Controller Interfaces
(SCI). The UARTs convert data between serial and parallel formats. The
serial communication follows an asynchronous protocol that supports var-
ious word length, stop bits, bit rate, and parity generation options.
Features
Each UART includes these features:
• 5 – 8 data bits
• 1 or 2 stop bits (1 1/2 in 5-bit mode)
• Even, odd, and sticky parity bit options
• 3 interrupt outputs for reception, transmission, and status
• Independent DMA operation for receive and transmit
