AFE781H1: UART Break communication is not reliable

Part Number: AFE781H1

Tool/software:

Hello,

I have started communicating with AFE781H1 chip.

Issue is sometimes I am unable to get response to AFE781H1 chip.  The RX pin stays HIGH, after TX query for READ function.  Would this be related to baud rate (timer) accuracy issues?

Can I increase the UART break time to 12 or 13 characters?

Regards,

Bhushan

  • Bhushan,

    I'm not sure what the problem is. The internal oscillator clock is accurate to ±1%, so the UART timing should be the same. 

    However, if you do increase the UART break time to 12 or 13 characters, the device will still interpret that as a UART break. The device is only looking for any time period longer than 11 characters.

  • Hello Joseph,

    I apologize for the delay in getting back to you.

    The issue was on the MCU clock timing side. After changing the MCU  clock time, DAC responded to all the queries.

    Thanks for your support.
