Inverting SCI pins

JHi
Expert 2710 points

Is there a way to invert the ouput of the TX pin and then again invert incoming RX signal? This can of course be done with hardware but I don't want to add any additional circuits.

    I guess this is not possible because I haven't got any answers....

    Hi JHi,

    To the best of my knowledge, you cant invert the pins from the SCI config registers. May I ask why you want to invert the lines?

    We have an inverting buffer, which is also a  level shifter from 3.3V to 5V, and we use the same buffer for other purposes. Actually I only need to invert TX because RX comes from noninverting buffer. But inverting pins might also come in handy when you use optocouplers for isolating the SCI.

    We currently dont have an in-built mechanism for doing that and it cant be done in software either -- the start,stop and parity will not get flipped so you would need a Not gate on the line. The only other option, if you absolutely cant modify the HW, is to bit bang the inverted bits on the line using the gpios
