Peripheral Architecture www.ti.com 2 Peripheral Architecture 2.1 Clock Generation and Control The UART bit clock is sourced from the PLLC1 AUXCLK. It supports up to 128 kbps maximum data rate. Figure 2 is a conceptual clock generation diagram for the UART. The processor clock generator receives a signal from an external clock source and produces a UART input clock with a programmed frequency. The UART contains a programmable baud generator that takes an input clock and divides it by a divisor in

Peripheral Architecture www.ti.com 2.6 Operation 2.6.1 Transmission The UART transmitter section includes a transmitter hold register (THR) and a transmitter shift register (TSR). When the UART is in the FIFO mode, THR is a 16-byte FIFO. Transmitter section control is a function of the UART line control register (LCR). Based on the settings chosen in LCR, the UART transmitter sends the following to the receiving device: • 1 START bit • 5, 6, 7, or 8 data bits • 1 PARITY bit (optional) • 1, 1.5,

www.ti.com Peripheral Architecture 2.6.3 FIFO Modes The following two modes can be used for servicing the receiver and transmitter FIFOs: • FIFO interrupt mode. The FIFO is enabled and the associated interrupts are enabled. Interrupts are sent to the CPU to indicate when specific events occur. • FIFO poll mode. The FIFO is enabled but the associated interrupts are disabled. The CPU polls status bits to detect specific events. Because the receiver FIFO and the transmitter FIFO are controlled sepa

Peripheral Architecture www.ti.com 2.6.3.2 FIFO Poll Mode When the receiver FIFO is enabled in the FIFO control register (FCR) and the receiver interrupts are disabled in the interrupt enable register (IER), the poll mode is selected for the receiver FIFO. Similarly, when the transmitter FIFO is enabled and the transmitter interrupts are disabled, the transmitted FIFO is in the poll mode. In the poll mode, the CPU detects events by checking bits in the line status register (LSR): • The RXFIFOE b

www.ti.com Peripheral Architecture 2.6.4.1 RTS Behavior RTS data flow control originates in the receiver block (see Figure 1). When the receiver FIFO level reaches a trigger level of 1, 4, 8, or 14 (see Figure 6), RTS is deasserted. The sending UART may send an additional byte after the trigger level is reached (assuming the sending UART has another byte to send), because it may not recognize the deassertion of RTS until after it has begun sending the additional byte. For trigger level 1, 4, and

Peripheral Architecture www.ti.com 2.7 Reset Considerations 2.7.1 Software Reset Considerations Two bits in the power and emulation management register (PWREMU_MGMT) control resetting the parts of the UART: • The UTRST bit controls resetting the transmitter only. If UTRST = 1, the transmitter is active; if UTRST = 0, the transmitter is in reset. • The URRST bit controls resetting the receiver only. If URRST = 1, the receiver is active; if URRST = 0, the receiver is in reset. In each case, puttin

Peripheral Architecture www.ti.com 2.10 DMA Event Support In the FIFO mode, the UART generates the following two DMA events: • Receive event (URXEVT): The trigger level for the receiver FIFO (1, 4, 8, or 14 characters) is set with the RXFIFTL bit in the FIFO control register (FCR). Every time the trigger level is reached or a receiver time-out occurs, the UART sends a receive event to the EDMA controller. In response, the EDMA controller reads the data from the receiver FIFO by way of the receiv
