AM6548: About UART receive timeout

Part Number: AM6548


Please check the operation of UART described in the reference manual "12.1.5.4 UART Functional Description" of am65xx.
Please check "RX time-out" described in "Table 12-610. UART Mode Interrupts".
What is the default setting time for this timeout?
Which register setting can this timeout time be changed?

12.1.5.4.8.1.3.10 Time-Out Counter
Please tell me the register name of "timeout register" described in this chapter.

  • Hi Tomitama,

    As described in section 12.1.5.4.8.1.3.10, default UART timeout is '4x the programmed word length + 12 bits'. This default timeout can be changed by configuring the timeout registers 'UART_TIMEOUTL (offset 98h)' and 'UART_TIMEOUTH (offset 9Ch)'. Any non-zero value written to these registers will override the default timeout value. Timeout configured in these registers will be in number of baud clocks.
