I need to develop a custom board with WiFi connectivity and a UART(RS485). The UART will be connected to a proprietary device with a proprietary protocol, no problem on this. The board should connect to a MQTT server through WiFi. I don't know if I will choose a "transparent" WiFi module, implementing all TCP/IP stack and MQTT protocol on the host controller, or choose a "full-featur...


parity/stopbits issue on 16550 in vxWorks

Started by bo in comp.arch.embedded14 years ago

I'm having great difficulty getting a 16550 UART to transmit parity/2 stop bits. I'm using vxWorks6.4, Workbench2.6 tools for an MVME5100 (74xx processor board). I get no errors returned on the ioctl() calls and the options read back equal the options set--but the UART is not transmitting parity bit and not transmitting the 2nd stop bit (in other words, the only change from the default values tha...

Hi, I'm trying to understand a part of a C-program written for the M16C. This part of code should send a string through the uart. The previous code builds the string (an unsigned char array) to be sent. It manipulates every byte, then put it into the array, and then sent it byte after byte in the for-loop. [...] tmp = InfoToBeSent > > 8; //What does this mean? tmp = tmp & 0x0F; if


How to snif full-duplex UART protocol between two nodes

Many times I need to snif and log on a file the activity between two nodes that talk over a full-duplex UART (separate TX and RX lines). Just an example, consider a host MCU that talks with a modem through AT commands. It's a half-duplex protocol because the MCU sends the AT command and the modem replies. However the modem is able to send URC messages that can be emitted at any time. ...


Emulating 1-wire interface with a microcontroller

Hi, I have a microcontroller with GPIO, I2C and UART, and I'm trying to emulate a 1-wire interface so that the microcontroller appears as an i- button to another ASIC. I'm wondering if it would be easier to use either of the serial channels(UART or I2C) or should I just emulate it with GPIO? Would also appreciate any tips/help on how to emulate, and 1-wire standards, since I'm new to 1-...


8051 UART timing

Does anyone know the exact timing of the internal UART on an 8051 based microprocessor (actually it's a Dallas 80C320)? As I understand it, when transmitting, the TI bit sets a the _beginning_ of the stop bit of the byte. So if you wait for the TI bit to go true, and immediately write another byte to SBUF, does this immediately start transmitting the start bit of the new byte, cutting short the st...

We are trying to use the TL16C554A quad uart The transmission rate we are interested is quite low: 4800bps We used the fifo polled mode as well as the fifo interrupt mode by programming the registers as described in the Datasheet. 1) In fifo polled mode we check the lsbit in the LSR 2) In Fifo interrupt mode we check the IIR bit 3 with a threshold set to 14. In both the use we lo...

I am working on a wireless transceiver to pair with a mobile phone. I already have a Java midlet that can receive data via the USB cable (It receives serially using UART though). I am using the Nordic nRF24LU1 transceiver which has a built-in 8051 MCU. How do I configure the MCU to send data through its attached USB port via UART so that I can pair it together with the mobile phone and do serial...

Hi, I want to know if it is possible to use at the same time the USB and UART peripheral on the AT91SAM7S256-128-64-321, with zero error on the UART part. The clocking scheme is what concerns me. As far as I understand you have the main clock MCK from an external crystal (or clock signal). Is MCK derived directly, I mean, does MCK have the same frequency as the external crystal? The UAR...

Hello. I'm having a problem with a H8S MCU ( 2328) uart I use to comunicate witch a GSM module. First I was using a Atmel MCU instead of the H8S and all was working fine. But when I have replaced the Atmel with the H8S the communication dosen't works. I have seen thant the problem is that when the GSM module tries to respond to the H8s, the signal level ( H8S-Rx ) doesn't reach to zero ...

Hello: In several MCUs of the MSP430 family, during the bootstrap loader mode, the normal UART Tx/Rx transmit/pins aren't used. Instead, other pins are alloted for BSL transmit and receive. Would you know if the normal Tx transmit output pin goes in high-impedance mode during the BSL mode? Also, is there any register bit or pin offering information on "normal" vs "BSL" status? Th...

My receive ISR however seems to pull out the 1st 2 bytes of the transmission from the receive buffer twice. i.e., when the smart card sends 0x1, 0x2, 0x3, ..., 0xa, My receive ISR will receive 0x1, 0x2, 0x1, 0x2, 0x3, ...,0xa.

We are using Linux BSP (linux-2.6.10) on the MCF5474 side and no OS on the MCF5232 side. The code in mcfserial.c enables RXRTS in Mode Register 1 and enables TXCTS in Mode Register 2 when CRTSCTS is set. This is correct...
