Description

This application note introduces and describes a UART device controller for use with the 'C5402 DSK board. The 'C5402 DSK has an on-board TL16C550C UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter). A UART provides a serial asynchronous interface to the DSP. It can be used with the 9-pin connector on the board to create a serial interface such as RS232 to the board.This UART controller
