UART
This section describes the Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) serial
port used for the two UARTs that are integrated into the Serial I/O unit and Watchdog
Timer (SIW). The UART can be controlled via programmed I/O. The basic programming
model is the same for both UARTs, with the only difference being the Logical Device
Number assigned to each. The serial port consists of a UART that supports all the
functions of a standard 16550 UART, including hardware flow control interface.
This section describes the electrical characteristics of the UART interface.

VOH spec does not apply to signals that are open drain driver. Open drain signals must have an
external pull up resistor.
