Universal Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter
(UART) Module
11.1 Overview
The UART module on the Kinetis family devices supports asynchronous, full-duplex
serial communications with peripheral devices or other CPUs. The UART module has
three main modes of operation -- UART, IrDA, and ISO-7816 mode.
The following sections will discuss the features and use of the UART in UART mode. In
particular the use of the UART as an RS-232 serial communication port will be
described. For full details on the UART module, including all of its features and modes
of operation, please refer to the device-specific reference manual.
11.2 Features
The feature set available on UARTs can vary from UART to UART. Basic UART
functionality is available on all UARTs, but the clock source for the module and the
transmit and receive FIFO sizes can vary. The table below lists the UART features that
vary based on UART module instantiation.
