Hi, I used ATMega16 UART to communicate with a target device which is of baud 1200 but failed. I then tried to communicate the UART with PC COM Port and terminal software. I found the communication is OK when the baud is from 115200 down to 2400. But straight characters appear when the baud rate turns to 1200. My baud setting function is: void uartSetBaudRate(u32 baudrate) { u16 b...

Hi Guru's I need a quad UART chip with only RXD and TXD per channel, no handshake required, preferable communicating with my CPU through an SPI port. Baudrates in the range of 4800 to 38400 baud. Oh, and it needs to be cheap. I am thinking about a small controller but most only have two UARTS and doing four in software at 38400 seems quite a challenge to me. So maybe s small FPGA/CPLD so...

Hi, I want to exchange information between an AT91SAM7X256 and a PC through USB. The MCU has the USB transceiver inside, and there is NO USB-to-serial conversion involved, because the data is consumed inside the MCU. There is no UART involved. I don't want to write any code at the host side. At the most, editing and using a ".inf" file. So, I 'm trying to take advantage of one of the ex...

Hi everybody, can anyone tell me what should be the potential at the tx and rx lines of uart at initial state.(whether idle or known state) i read somewhere that at known state the potential diff is 5v, then the receiver at the other end can view it as a valid byte as anything potential above 2v is considered as a valid data. pl explain

Hi All I want some feedback as to whether what I am doing is correct. I am using a DS80C320 with a Phillips SC28L198 8 channel UART. 2 interrupts are triggered by the internal UARTS, 1 by the phillips chip and another by timer 0. I have found that for reliable operation i must turn all interrupts off when servicing the internal uart interrupts, and when putting a character into the ring...

I read the following page: http://xpcc.io/api/group__sab2.html The author suggests to use a CAN transceiver, instead of a RS485 half-duplex transceiver, to create a serial multi-drop bus with nodes featuring normal UART peripherals. This should avoid the use of a third pin for direction control. What do you think? Does this solution works without problems? I think the control of the...

Hi all embedded gurus out there, I am working on an embedded platform using microblaze. I am trying to implement an algo, which does a inverse matrix function on the microblaze (via C) and then port the results back to matlab. so this is the scenario. 1) matlab generates some numbers, passes them to microblaze via the UART (ie. PC to UART) 2) microblaze will then generate the matri...

Hi, I'm trying to communicate with a smart card via iso7816 by emulating the T=0 protocol using a generic MCU's UART interface. One problem I'm having is providing a clock to the smart card(~3.5712MHz) w/o the use of a seperate crystal. Obviously using the GPIO pins would be too slow, and the UART channel doesn't have a SCLK out. It's also impossible to get a divisor for the MCU's clock si...

I've a 'Main' Board that needs to communicate with 4 other processors on other boards with at least 1 MiByte/s. A prefer to use the Adress/Data-Bus on the 'Main' Board. The 'other' processors support SPI, I2C, UART and have an A/D-Bus aswell. My first idea was to take a quad UART an put it on the 'Main' board. Problem is that they are all expensive. Any other idea? ---------------...

I m trying to run a simple UART program on EZ USB FX2. This program continously transmits the char 'A'. This is compiling fine in Keil. But when I run it and see it on oscilloscope, the data rate is not exact what i have set it to 9600 baud. Moreover, the data bits and start stop bits are inverted . So I have to send inverted data (A xor 0xff) to get actual character A. The program is as follows:...

What about if the receiver has some kind of auto-baud... I would guess that if the transmitter baud rate is a little slow then the receiver might get an overrun errors and try for a slower rate?
