UART

1. UART is a device-to-device communication protocol that uses asynchronous serial data transmission between two UARTs using only two wires - one for transmission and one for reception. 2. It converts parallel data to serial for transmission and then back to parallel for reception by adding start and stop bits to organize the data transmission. 3. UART is commonly used in applications like GPS receivers, Bluetooth modules, GSM/GPRS modems, and wireless communication systems.

UART
 UART stands for Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter.
 It is a device to device communication protocol.
 Data transmission is an asynchronous form of serial data transmission .
 Main purpose is to transmit and receive serial data.

Tx-transmitter line
Rx-receiver line
In UART communication, two UARTs communicate directly with each other. The
transmitting UART converts parallel data into serial form, transmits it in serial to
the receiving UART, which then converts the serial data back into parallel data for
the receiving device.

Only two wires are needed to


transmit data between two UARTs.
Data flows from the Tx pin of the
transmitting UART to the Rx pin of
the receiving UART

Instead of a clock signal, UART transmitted data is organized into packets that
adds start and stop bits to the data packet. These bits define the beginning and
end of the data packet.
Each packet contains 1 start
bit, 5 to 9 data bits (depending on
the UART), an optional parity
bit(0/1), and 1 or 2 stop bits:
Steps of UART Transmission

1. The transmitting UART receives data in parallel from the data bus

2. The transmitting UART adds the start bit, parity bit, and the stop bit(s) to
the data frame
3. The entire packet is sent serially from the transmitting UART to the receiving UART.
The receiving UART samples the data line at the pre-configured baud rate:

4. The receiving UART discards the start bit, parity bit, and stop bit from the data frame:
5. The receiving UART converts the serial data back into parallel and transfers
it to the data bus on the receiving end:

Application of UART

UART is used in many applications like,


• GPS Receivers ,Bluetooth Modules
• GSM and GPRS Modems
• Wireless Communication Systems, RFID
based applications etc.
Advantages and Disadvantages of UARTs

ADVANTAGES :

• Only uses two wires


• No clock signal is necessary
• Has a parity bit to allow for error checking

DISADVANTAGES :

• The size of the data frame is limited to a maximum of 9


bits
• Doesn’t support multiple slave or multiple master
systems
• The baud rates of each UART must be within 10% of each
other
