The Universal Synchronous Asynchronous serial Receiver and 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 SmartCards, I2S devices and IrDA devices.
The bootloader presented in application note AN0003 is pre-programmed in the device at factory. Auto-
baud and destructive write are supported. The autobaud feature, interface and commands are described
further in the application note.
The unique LEUART
a strict power budget. Only a 32.768 kHz clock is needed to allow UART communication up to 9600 baud/
s. The LEUART includes all necessary hardware support to make asynchronous serial communication
possible with minimum of software intervention and energy consumption.
The 16-bit general purpose Timer has 3 compare/capture channels for input capture and compare/Pulse-
Width Modulation (PWM) output.
The Real Time Counter (RTC) contains a 24-bit counter and is clocked either by a 32.768 kHz crystal
oscillator, or a 32 kHz RC oscillator. In addition to energy modes EM0 and EM1, the RTC is also available
in EM2. This makes it ideal for keeping track of time since the RTC is enabled in EM2 where most of
the device is powered down.
The unique LETIMER
in addition to EM1 and EM0. Because of this, it can be used for timing and output generation when most
of the device is powered down, allowing simple tasks to be performed while the power consumption of
the system is kept at an absolute minimum. The LETIMER can be used to output a variety of waveforms
with minimal software intervention. It is also connected to the Real Time Counter (RTC), and can be
configured to start counting on compare matches from the RTC.
The Pulse Counter (PCNT) can be used for counting pulses on a single input or to decode quadrature
encoded inputs. It runs off either the internal LFACLK or the PCNTn_S0IN pin as external clock source.
The module may operate in energy mode EM0 – EM3.
The Analog Comparator is used to compare the voltage of two analog inputs, with a digital output indi-
cating which input voltage is higher. Inputs can either be one of the selectable internal references or from
external pins. Response time and thereby also the current consumption can be configured by altering
the current supply to the comparator.
