AM2434: 9-bit UART

Genius 5330 points
Part Number: AM2434

Hi experts,

Can the AM243x use UART(and MCU_UART) in 9-bit data format? There are the following differences in the documentation, which information is correct?

  • AM243x Sitara Microcontrollers datasheet (Rev. C): SPRSP65C
    • 8.4.2.21 UART The UART module supports the following main features:
      • Programmable serial interface characteristics
      – 5, 6, 7, or 8-bit characters
      – Even, odd, mark (always 1), space (always 0), or no parity (non-parity bit frame) bit generation and detection
      – 1-, 1.5-, or 2-stop bit generation
  • AM64x/AM243x Technical Reference Manual (Rev. C): SPRUIM2C
    • 12.1.5.1.1 UART Features
      • Configurable data format:
      – Data bit: 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 bits
      – Parity bit: Even, odd, none
      – Stop-bit: 1, 1.5, 2 bit(s)

If it is possible to send 9-bit data, we would appreciate it if you could share any sample code or other referenceable information.

Best regards,
O.H
