USART - Synchronous/Asynchronous Serial

Description

Universal Synchronous/Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter Peripheral API.

The Universal Synchronous/Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (USART) is a very flexible serial I/O module. It supports full duplex asynchronous UART communication as well as RS-485, SPI, MicroWire, and 3-wire. It can also interface with ISO7816 Smart-Cards, and IrDA devices.

The USART has a wide selection of operating modes, frame formats, and baud rates. All features are supported through the API of this module.

Triple buffering and DMA support makes high data-rates possible with minimal CPU intervention. It is possible to transmit and receive large frames while the MCU remains in EM1 Sleep.

This module does not support DMA configuration. The UARTDRV and SPIDRV drivers provide full support for DMA and more.

The following steps are necessary for basic operation:

Clock enable:

#if !defined(_SILICON_LABS_32B_SERIES_2)
/* USART is a HFPERCLK peripheral. Enable HFPERCLK domain and USART0.
* We also need to enable the clock for GPIO to configure pins. */
CMU_ClockEnable (cmuClock_HFPER, true );
CMU_ClockEnable ( cmuClock_USART0 , true );
CMU_ClockEnable ( cmuClock_GPIO , true );
#endif

To initialize the USART for asynchronous operation (e.g., UART):

/* Initialize with default settings and then update fields according to application requirements. */
USART_InitAsync_TypeDef initAsync = USART_INITASYNC_DEFAULT ;
initAsync. baudrate = 38400;
USART_InitAsync (USART0, &initAsync);

To initialize the USART for synchronous operation (e.g., SPI):

/* Initialize with default settings and then update fields according to application requirements. */
USART_InitSync_TypeDef initSync = USART_INITSYNC_DEFAULT ;
/* Operate as SPI master */
initSync. master = true ;
/* Clock idle low, sample on falling edge. */
initSync. clockMode = usartClockMode1 ;
USART_InitSync (USART0, &initSync);

After pins are assigned for the application/board, enable pins at the desired location. Available locations can be obtained from the Pin Definitions section in the data sheet.

Note
UARTDRV supports all types of UART flow control. Software assisted hardware flow control is available for parts without true UART hardware flow control.

Function Documentation

◆ USART_BaudrateAsyncSet()

void USART_BaudrateAsyncSet ( USART_TypeDef * usart,
uint32_t refFreq,
uint32_t baudrate,
USART_OVS_TypeDef ovs
)

Configure USART/UART operating in asynchronous mode to use a given baudrate (or as close as possible to a specified baudrate).

Parameters
[in] usart A pointer to the USART/UART peripheral register block.
[in] refFreq USART/UART reference clock frequency in Hz. If set to 0, the currently configured reference clock is assumed.
[in] baudrate Baudrate to try to achieve for USART/UART.
[in] ovs Oversampling to be used. Normal is 16x oversampling but lower oversampling may be used to achieve higher rates or better baudrate accuracy in some cases. Notice that lower oversampling frequency makes the channel more vulnerable to bit faults during reception due to clock inaccuracies compared to the link partner.

◆ USART_BaudrateCalc()

uint32_t USART_BaudrateCalc ( uint32_t refFreq,
uint32_t clkdiv,
bool syncmode,
USART_OVS_TypeDef ovs
)

Calculate baudrate for USART/UART given reference frequency, clock division, and oversampling rate (if async mode).

This function returns the baudrate that a USART/UART module will use if configured with the given frequency, clock divisor, and mode. Notice that this function will not use the hardware configuration. It can be used to determine if a given configuration is sufficiently accurate for the application.

Parameters
[in] refFreq USART/UART HF peripheral frequency used.
[in] clkdiv A clock division factor to be used.
[in] syncmode
  • True - synchronous mode operation.
  • False - asynchronous mode operation.
[in] ovs Oversampling used if in asynchronous mode. Not used if syncmode is true.
Returns
Baudrate with given settings.

◆ USART_BaudrateGet()

uint32_t USART_BaudrateGet ( USART_TypeDef * usart )

Get the current baudrate for USART/UART.

This function returns the actual baudrate (not considering oscillator inaccuracies) used by a USART/UART peripheral.

Parameters
[in] usart A pointer to the USART/UART peripheral register block.
Returns
The current baudrate.

◆ USART_BaudrateSyncSet()

void USART_BaudrateSyncSet ( USART_TypeDef * usart,
uint32_t refFreq,
uint32_t baudrate
)

Configure the USART operating in synchronous mode to use a given baudrate (or as close as possible to a specified baudrate).

The configuration will be set to use a baudrate <= the specified baudrate to ensure that the baudrate does not exceed the specified value.

The fractional clock division is suppressed, although the hardware design allows it. It could cause half clock cycles to exceed a specified limit and thus potentially violate specifications for the slave device. In some special situations, a fractional clock division may be useful even in synchronous mode, but in those cases it must be directly adjusted, possibly assisted by USART_BaudrateCalc() :

Warning
The consequence of the aforementioned suppression of the fractional part of the clock divider is that some frequencies won't be achievable. The divider will only be able to be an integer value so the reference clock will only be dividable by N (where N is a positive integer).
Parameters
[in] usart A pointer to the USART peripheral register block. (Cannot be used on UART modules.)
[in] refFreq A USART reference clock frequency in Hz that will be used. If set to 0, the currently-configured reference clock is assumed.
[in] baudrate Baudrate to try to achieve for USART.

◆ USART_Enable()

Notice that possible parity/stop bits in asynchronous mode are not considered part of a specified frame bit length.

Note

void USART_IntEnable ( USART_TypeDef * usart,
uint32_t flags
)
inline

Enable one or more USART interrupts.

Note
Depending on the use, a pending interrupt may already be set prior to enabling the interrupt. To ignore a pending interrupt, consider using USART_IntClear() prior to enabling the interrupt.
Parameters
[in] usart Pointer to the USART/UART peripheral register block.
[in] flags USART/UART interrupt source(s) to enable. Use one or more valid interrupt flags for the USART module (USART_IF_nnn) OR'ed together.

◆ USART_IntGet()

uint32_t USART_IntGet ( USART_TypeDef * usart )
inline

Get pending USART interrupt flags.

Note
The event bits are not cleared by the use of this function.
Parameters
[in] usart Pointer to the USART/UART peripheral register block.
Returns
USART/UART interrupt source(s) pending. Returns one or more valid interrupt flags for the USART module (USART_IF_nnn) OR'ed together.

◆ USART_IntGetEnabled()

uint32_t USART_IntGetEnabled ( USART_TypeDef * usart )
inline

Get enabled and pending USART interrupt flags.

Useful for handling more interrupt sources in the same interrupt handler.

Parameters
[in] usart Pointer to the USART/UART peripheral register block.
Note
Interrupt flags are not cleared by the use of this function.
Returns
Pending and enabled USART interrupt sources. The return value is the bitwise AND combination of
  • the OR combination of enabled interrupt sources in USARTx_IEN_nnn register (USARTx_IEN_nnn) and
  • the OR combination of valid interrupt flags of the USART module (USARTx_IF_nnn).

◆ USART_IntSet()

void USART_IntSet ( USART_TypeDef * usart,
uint32_t flags
)
inline

Set one or more pending USART interrupts from SW.

[in] usart Pointer to the USART/UART peripheral register block.
[in] flags USART/UART interrupt source(s) to set to pending. Use one or more valid interrupt flags for the USART module (USART_IF_nnn) OR'ed together.

◆ USART_StatusGet()

uint32_t USART_StatusGet ( USART_TypeDef * usart )
inline

Get USART STATUS register.

Parameters
[in] usart Pointer to the USART/UART peripheral register block.
Returns
STATUS register value.

◆ USART_RxDataGet()

uint8_t USART_RxDataGet ( USART_TypeDef * usart )
inline

Receive one 4-8 bit frame, (or part of 10-16 bit frame).

This function is used to quickly receive one 4-8 bits frame by reading the RXDATA register directly, without checking the STATUS register for the RXDATAV flag. This can be useful from the RXDATAV interrupt handler, i.e., waiting is superfluous, in order to quickly read the received data. Please refer to USART_RxDataXGet() for reception of 9 bit frames.

Note
Because this function does not check whether the RXDATA register actually holds valid data, it should only be used in situations when it is certain that there is valid data, ensured by some external program routine, e.g., when handling an RXDATAV interrupt. The USART_Rx() is normally a better choice if the validity of the RXDATA register is not certain.

[in] usart Pointer to USART/UART peripheral register block.
Returns
Data received.

◆ USART_RxDoubleGet()

uint16_t USART_RxDoubleGet ( USART_TypeDef * usart )
inline

Receive two 4-8 bit frames, or one 10-16 bit frame.

This function is used to quickly receive one 10-16 bits frame or two 4-8 bit frames by reading the RXDOUBLE register directly, without checking the STATUS register for the RXDATAV flag. This can be useful from the RXDATAV interrupt handler, i.e., waiting is superfluous, in order to quickly read the received data. This function is normally used to receive one frame when operating with frame length 10-16 bits. Please refer to USART_RxDoubleXGet() for reception of two 9 bit frames.

Note
Because this function does not check whether the RXDOUBLE register actually holds valid data, it should only be used in situations when it is certain that there is valid data, ensured by some external program routine, e.g., when handling an RXDATAV interrupt. The USART_RxDouble() is normally a better choice if the validity of the RXDOUBLE register is not certain.
Notice that possible parity/stop bits in asynchronous mode are not considered part of specified frame bit length.
Parameters
[in] usart Pointer to USART/UART peripheral register block.
Returns
Data received.

◆ USART_RxDoubleXGet()

uint32_t USART_RxDoubleXGet ( USART_TypeDef * usart )
inline

Receive two 4-9 bit frames, or one 10-16 bit frame with extended information.

This function is used to quickly receive one 10-16 bits frame or two 4-9 bit frames by reading the RXDOUBLEX register directly, without checking the STATUS register for the RXDATAV flag. This can be useful from the RXDATAV interrupt handler, i.e., waiting is superfluous, in order to quickly read the received data.

Note
Because this function does not check whether the RXDOUBLEX register actually holds valid data, it should only be used in situations when it is certain that there is valid data, ensured by some external program routine, e.g., when handling an RXDATAV interrupt. The USART_RxDoubleExt() is normally a better choice if the validity of the RXDOUBLEX register is not certain.
Notice that possible parity/stop bits in asynchronous mode are not considered part of specified frame bit length.
Parameters
[in] usart Pointer to USART/UART peripheral register block.
Returns
Data received.
