UART3 on SuperPRO

Post by basicchip »

The original BASIC for the SuperPRO was written for a different package than the 80 pin device. RXD3 and TXD3 were connected to Port 4. But those pins are not available on the 80 pin LPC1756. So to access those pin functions, you need to change the PINSEL register, here is a test program I wrote to verify it.

Code: Select all

#ifdef LPC11U37
#else
#include "LPC17xx.bas"
#endif

#define UARTx 3
#define UARTx_FDR UART3_FDR

SUB PrintUART1 (Astr(100) as STRING)
    DIM I as INTEGER
    I=0
    WHILE Astr(I)
        TXD(UARTx) =  Astr(I)
        I=I+1
    LOOP
END SUB
'...


main:

#ifdef LPC11U37
BAUD(UARTx)=115200  ' enable UART1
#else
BAUD(UARTx)=125000  ' enable UART1, standard call for 115.2 is too coarse -- needs fractional rate
UARTx_FDR = &HC1
  #if UARTx == 3
    PCB_PINSEL1 OR= &H003C0000
	PCB_PINSEL9 AND= (&HF0FFFFFF)
  #endif
#endif

for i= 1 to 10
PrintUART1 ("Hello World")       ' Send a string of characters serially out UART1
TXD(UARTx)=13
next

' now echo the first 10 charaters sent to UART1

x = 10
while x>0
	y = RXD(UARTx)
	while y = -1
		y = RXD(UARTx)		' when -1 there is no character available
	loop
	TXD(0)=y	        ' echo the character to BASICtools
	x=x-1
loop
