13.4.1 The UART / RS232 interface
The Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter UART converts a word of data into
serial data, and vice versa. It is the base of many serial protocols like of RS-232. The
UART uses only one line, or two lines for transmitter and receiver.
Data transfer
The data is transmitted in symbols, also referred to as words or characters. Each sym-
bol consists of a start bit, several data bits, an optional parity bit, and one or more stop
bits. Several symbols can form a frame, or package. The end of a frame is marked by
a pause between two symbols.
