For configuration elements related with the RS-232 port operation, refer to
Table 6
and
Table 9
.
Section 2.10
brings information on using the LPUART port of STM32L476ZGT6 for RS-232,
instead of its USART1 port.
2.9.2 IrDA
port
The IrDA communication port uses an IrDA transceiver (U11).
Table 9
shows the
configuration elements related with the IrDA port operation
.
2.9.3 Limitations
The operation of RS-232 and IrDA ports is mutually exclusive. The operation of either port is
also mutually exclusive with the NFC peripheral operation.
2.9.4 Operating
voltage
The RS-232- and IrDA-related operating supply voltage of STM32L476ZGT6 (VDD line)
must be within the range from 1.71 V to 3.6 V.
2.10 LPUART
port
On top of USART1 port for serial communication, the STM32L476ZGT6 offers LPUART, a
low-power UART port.
