Design and Implementation of Uart

This document describes the design and implementation of a UART using VHDL. It contains an introduction, contents, and sections on what a UART is, when it is needed, how it works, its block diagram, features, applications, and a conclusion. The UART consists of transmitter and receiver modules that convert parallel to serial data and vice versa. It transmits data in frames with start, stop, and parity bits. The UART was modeled and simulated using Xilinx foundation tools and VHDL. Its applications include inter-board communication, PC interfacing, and serial communications. The project demonstrated advantages of using a hardware description language over conventional design methods.

INTRODUCTION:

The objective of this project is to simulate


UART using VHDL, a high level language for modeling digital circuits and by using Xilinx foundation.

What is UART?
The UART (universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter) The UART we have designed consists 2 modules. They are transmitter, receiver. Transmitter converts the parallel data words into serial data bits and transmits them over the txd line. The receiver receives serial bits from rxd line and converts them into parallel data word. Transmits data in frames.

When do we need a UART?

Control the receiving and transmitting time of the data.

Increase the accuracy and decrease the effect of the noise

UART: What it is and how it works:


UART provides the computer with the RS-232C Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) interface so that it can "talk" to and exchange data with modems and other serial devices. As part of this interface, the UART also:

Converts the bytes it receives from the computer along parallel circuits
into a single serial bit stream for outbound transmission

On inbound transmission, converts the serial bit stream into the bytes that
the computer handles

Adds a parity bit (if it's been selected) on outbound transmissions and checks the parity of incoming bytes (if selected) and discards the parity bit Adds start and stop delineators on outbound and strips them from inbound transmissions Handles interrupts from the keyboard and mouse (which are serial devices with special ports)

How do we use the UART?


The use of the UART can be confusing at first but is rather straightforward once an understanding of the UART is acquired.

Let us take the UART data format. This implementation of the UART transmits in blocks of 11 bits; 1 leading low start bit, 1 trailing high stop bit, 1 parity bit and 8 data bits.
