Universal Asynchronous Receiver / Transmitter

Overview

CoreUART is a serial communication controller with a flexible serial data interface that is intended primarily for embedded systems. CoreUART can be used to interface directly to industry standard UARTs.

Key Features

  • Support of fractional baud value for greater precision
  • Size-efficient UART with FIFO interface
  • Fully programmable baud rate with glitch rejection
  • Support normal and FIFO modes
  • Support asynchronous operation
  • Optional smaller and higher-performance synchronous mode for use in embedded systems
  • 7 or 8 bits of data
  • Parity (odd, even, or none)
  • FIFO depth up to 256 bytes
  • Double-buffered to maximize throughput in normal mode (non-FIFO)
  • Supports RS-232 interface
