UART

Hi,

I want to configure uart in an example project for my F2837xD eval. board. Does uartstdio.h/.c files in /utils have to used? How can I include in the project.

Thanks

Prakash

    You can find a ready-made example code named sci_echoback (uart) and so on in controlSuite.

    Thanks Gautam for the reply.

    I have one more question. Can I use this code for serial communication because I am using A:J1 USB/UART connector for connecting with PC. Do I need to add USB interface in order for it to work ?

    Your help is greatly appreciated.

    Regards

    Prakash

    Yes, why not! No, you might not need the USB interface (If you're able to power the board externally). Just check the schematic whether you need a level converter or is it present. Usually SCIA can be directly connected to serial port but do check the schematic.
