UART

11-13

UART CONTROL REGISTER (Continued)

Transmit Mode

[3:2] Determine which function is currently able to write Tx data to the UART

transmit buffer register. (UART Tx Enable/Disable)

00 = Disable
01 = Interrupt request or polling mode
10 = DMA0 request (Only for UART0),
DMA3 request (Only for UART2)
11 = DMA1 request (Only for UART1)

00

Receive Mode

[1:0] Determine which function is currently able to read data from UART

receive buffer register. (UART Rx Enable/Disable)

00 = Disable
01 = Interrupt request or polling mode
10 = DMA0 request (Only for UART0),
DMA3 request (Only for UART2)
11 = DMA1 request (Only for UART1)

00

Note

When the UART does not reach the FIFO trigger level and does not receive data during 3 word time in DMA receive mode
with FIFO, the Rx interrupt will be generated (receive time out), and the users should check the FIFO status and read out the
rest.
