Register 8: UART Control (UARTCTL), offset 0x030
The UARTCTL register is the control register. All the bits are cleared on reset except for the Transmit
Enable (TXE) and Receive Enable (RXE) bits, which are set.
To enable the UART module, the UARTEN bit must be set. If software requires a configuration change
in the module, the UARTEN bit must be cleared before the configuration changes are written. If the
UART is disabled during a transmit or receive operation, the current transaction is completed prior
to the UART stopping.
Note: Registers that contain bits for modem control or status only apply to the following UARTs:
■ UART0 (modem flow control and modem status)
■ UART1 (modem flow control and modem status)
■ UART2 (modem flow control)
■ UART3 (modem flow control)
■ UART4 (modem flow control)
Note: The UARTCTL register should not be changed while the UART is enabled or else the results
are unpredictable. The following sequence is recommended for making changes to the
UARTCTL register.
1. Disable the UART.
2. Wait for the end of transmission or reception of the current character.
3. Flush the transmit FIFO by clearing bit 4 (FEN) in the line control register (UARTLCRH).
4. Reprogram the control register.
5. Enable the UART.
