Configuration and Debugging of Altera A10 SoC HPS UART as a Data Communication Interface

Configuration and Debugging of Altera A10 SoC HPS UART as a Data Communication Interface

Background Introduction In embedded systems, UART serial ports are commonly used for debugging and communication. Typically, there are no specific requirements for the baud rate of the debugging serial port, with a common configuration being 115200 8N1. Besides debugging, UART serial ports can also serve as data communication interfaces for interconnecting with other boards or … Read more

Click the blue text above to follow us Embedded Training – Choose Jufeng Smart Link 1. Definition UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter) is a widely used serial communication protocol for transmitting data asynchronously between devices. It does not require a shared clock signal but relies on pre-agreed parameters (such as baud rate) for communication. Functions and … Read more

Principle of Automatic Baud Rate Recognition for STM32 Serial Ports

Principle of Automatic Baud Rate Recognition for STM32 Serial Ports

Your device connects to another device, and if it can automatically recognize the baud rate without knowing the baud rate of the other device, wouldn’t that be very convenient? 1 Overview Regarding the issue of automatically recognizing UART serial port baud rates, those with project experience or who have studied serial ports should know a … Read more

5-Minute Tutorial: How to Gain Root Access via UART

5-Minute Tutorial: How to Gain Root Access via UART

Introduction Do you know how IoT devices and other hardware manufacturers debug and test their devices? That’s right, in most cases, they leave a serial interface, allowing them to read real-time debug logs or interact with the hardware through a shell. There are mainly two different types of serial interfaces, but the most common one … Read more

Troubleshooting Incorrect Baud Rate Configuration for S32K324 MCAL SPI

Troubleshooting Incorrect Baud Rate Configuration for S32K324 MCAL SPI

Introduction During the project development process, it was found that the actual baud rate configured for the MCAL SPI did not match the clock frequency captured by the logic analyzer. The actual frequency was only half of the configured value. This article documents the troubleshooting process for this issue. MCAL Configuration Check The baud rate … Read more

Introduction to UART

Introduction to UART

1 UART UART is an asynchronous serial communication protocol, with the full English name Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter. Unlike communication protocols such as SPI and I2C, it is also a commonly used IP in SoCs. Its greatest advantage is that it uses only two wires for communication, supporting full-duplex, meaning one wire (UTx) is used for … Read more

Automatic Baud Rate Detection for Serial Ports

Your device connects to another device, and if it can automatically recognize the baud rate without knowing the baud rate of the other device, wouldn’t that be convenient? 1 Overview Regarding the issue of automatically recognizing UART serial port baud rates, I believe those with project experience or who have seriously studied serial ports should … Read more

How High Are the Clock Accuracy Requirements for UART Baud Rate?

How High Are the Clock Accuracy Requirements for UART Baud Rate?

UART communication is an asynchronous communication method, where both the sender and receiver must communicate at an agreed baud rate. When there is an error in the baud rate, it can lead to communication errors. So, what factors can lead to errors in the baud rate? 1. Frequency Division Error Firstly, the baud rate is … Read more
