6.13 Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART)
The UART performs serial-to-parallel conversions on data received from an external peripheral device and
parallel-to-serial conversions on data transmitted to an external peripheral device via a serial bus.
The VC5504 has one UART peripheral with the following features:
• Programmable baud rates (frequency pre-scale values from 1 to 65535)
• Fully programmable serial interface characteristics:
– 5, 6, 7, or 8-bit characters
– Even, odd, or no PARITY bit generation and detection
– 1, 1.5, or 2 STOP bit generation
• 16-byte depth transmitter and receiver FIFOs:
– The UART can be operated with or without the FIFOs
– 1, 4, 8, or 14 byte selectable receiver FIFO trigger level for autoflow control and DMA
• DMA signaling capability for both received and transmitted data
• CPU interrupt capability for both received and transmitted data
• False START bit detection
• Line break generation and detection
• Internal diagnostic capabilities:
– Loopback controls for communications link fault isolation
– Break, parity, overrun, and framing error simulation
• Programmable autoflow control using CTS and RTS signals
