Usart: It Is A Communication Protocol For Serial Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter

USART (Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) is a serial communication protocol used to transmit data between microcontrollers or between a microcontroller and computer. It uses a packet format with start bit, data bits, optional parity bit, and stop bit. Data is transmitted asynchronously by sending single bytes or synchronously by sending blocks of characters. The Arduino board uses specific pins for Rx and Tx and the USART must be enabled through software. Registers like UCSRA, UCSRB, UCSRC control the USART and store status like received/transmitted data. The baud rate for serial communication is set using the UBRRH and UBRRL registers.

PARITY
BIT

USART packet format: 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 parity bit, 1 stop bit.

Data Bits : 5-8 bits


Stop Bit: 0 or 1 or 2
Parity Bit : Optional (Even or Odd)

BAUD RATE : The number of Symbols


transmitted per second
Typical Values are 1200, 2400, 9600, 19200
etc..
Mode Of Transmission :
Asynchronous - Transfers a single byte at a
time.
Synchronous- Transfers a block of data
(characters) at a time.

Serial Port
It is a set of 9 PINS used for serial data
communication between two Cs or between
C and a Computer

PORT

RS-232
The RS-232 standard defines the voltage levels
that correspond to logical one and logical zero
levels in serial communication..
Valid signals are plus or minus 3 to 15 volts.
The range near zero volts is not a valid RS-232
level..
Logic one is defined as a negative voltage and
logic zero is positive..

Voltage Levels in Our Microcontroller are


Logic High= 5Volt
Logic Low= 0 Volt
