.. _pyb.UART:
class UART -- duplex serial communication bus
=============================================
UART implements the standard UART/USART duplex serial communications protocol. At
the physical level it consists of 2 lines: RX and TX. The unit of communication
is a character (not to be confused with a string character) which can be 8 or 9
bits wide.
UART objects can be created and initialised using::
from pyb import UART
uart = UART(1, 9600) # init with given baudrate
uart.init(9600, bits=8, parity=None, stop=1) # init with given parameters
.. only:: port_pyboard
Bits can be 7, 8 or 9. Parity can be None, 0 (even) or 1 (odd). Stop can be 1 or 2.
*Note:* with parity=None, only 8 and 9 bits are supported. With parity enabled,
only 7 and 8 bits are supported.
.. only:: port_wipy
Bits can be 5, 6, 7, 8. Parity can be None, 0 (even) or 1 (odd). Stop can be 1 or 2.
A UART object acts like a stream object and reading and writing is done
using the standard stream methods::
uart.read(10) # read 10 characters, returns a bytes object
uart.readall() # read all available characters
uart.readline() # read a line
uart.readinto(buf) # read and store into the given buffer
uart.write('abc') # write the 3 characters
.. only:: port_pyboard
Individual characters can be read/written using::
uart.readchar() # read 1 character and returns it as an integer
uart.writechar(42) # write 1 character
To check if there is anything to be read, use::
uart.any() # returns True if any characters waiting
*Note:* The stream functions ``read``, ``write``, etc. are new in MicroPython v1.3.4.
Earlier versions use ``uart.send`` and ``uart.recv``.
.. only:: port_wipy
To check if there is anything to be read, use::
uart.any() # returns the number of characters available for reading
Constructors
------------
.. only:: port_pyboard
.. class:: pyb.UART(bus, ...)
Construct a UART object on the given bus. ``bus`` can be 1-6, or 'XA', 'XB', 'YA', or 'YB'.
With no additional parameters, the UART object is created but not
initialised (it has the settings from the last initialisation of
the bus, if any). If extra arguments are given, the bus is initialised.
See ``init`` for parameters of initialisation.
The physical pins of the UART busses are:
- ``UART(4)`` is on ``XA``: ``(TX, RX) = (X1, X2) = (PA0, PA1)``
- ``UART(1)`` is on ``XB``: ``(TX, RX) = (X9, X10) = (PB6, PB7)``
- ``UART(6)`` is on ``YA``: ``(TX, RX) = (Y1, Y2) = (PC6, PC7)``
- ``UART(3)`` is on ``YB``: ``(TX, RX) = (Y9, Y10) = (PB10, PB11)``
- ``UART(2)`` is on: ``(TX, RX) = (X3, X4) = (PA2, PA3)``
.. only:: port_wipy
.. class:: pyb.UART(bus, ...)
Construct a UART object on the given bus. ``bus`` can be 0 or 1.
With no additional parameters, the UART object is created but not
initialised (it has the settings from the last initialisation of
the bus, if any). If extra arguments are given, the bus is initialised.
See ``init`` for parameters of initialisation.
Methods
-------
.. only:: port_pyboard
.. method:: uart.init(baudrate, bits=8, parity=None, stop=1, \*, timeout=1000, flow=None, timeout_char=0, read_buf_len=64)
Initialise the UART bus with the given parameters:
- ``baudrate`` is the clock rate.
- ``bits`` is the number of bits per character, 7, 8 or 9.
- ``parity`` is the parity, ``None``, 0 (even) or 1 (odd).
- ``stop`` is the number of stop bits, 1 or 2.
- ``flow`` sets the flow control type. Can be None, ``UART.RTS``, ``UART.CTS``
or ``UART.RTS | UART.CTS``.
- ``timeout`` is the timeout in milliseconds to wait for the first character.
- ``timeout_char`` is the timeout in milliseconds to wait between characters.
- ``read_buf_len`` is the character length of the read buffer (0 to disable).
This method will raise an exception if the baudrate could not be set within
5% of the desired value. The minimum baudrate is dictated by the frequency
of the bus that the UART is on; UART(1) and UART(6) are APB2, the rest are on
APB1. The default bus frequencies give a minimum baudrate of 1300 for
UART(1) and UART(6) and 650 for the others. Use :func:`pyb.freq <pyb.freq>`
to reduce the bus frequencies to get lower baudrates.
*Note:* with parity=None, only 8 and 9 bits are supported. With parity enabled,
only 7 and 8 bits are supported.
.. only:: port_wipy
.. method:: uart.init(baudrate, bits=8, parity=None, stop=1, \*, pins=(TX, RX, RTS, CTS))
Initialise the UART bus with the given parameters:
- ``baudrate`` is the clock rate.
- ``bits`` is the number of bits per character, 7, 8 or 9.
- ``parity`` is the parity, ``None``, 0 (even) or 1 (odd).
- ``stop`` is the number of stop bits, 1 or 2.
- ``pins`` is a 4 or 2 item list indicating the TX, RX, RTS and CTS pins (in that order).
Any of the pins can be None if one wants the UART to operate with limited functionality.
If the RTS pin is given the the RX pin must be given as well. The same applies to CTS.
When no pins are given, then the default set of TX and RX pins is taken, and hardware
flow control will be disabled. If pins=None, no pin assignment will be made.
.. method:: uart.deinit()
Turn off the UART bus.
.. only:: port_pyboard
.. method:: uart.any()
Return ``True`` if any characters waiting, else ``False``.
.. only:: port_wipy
.. method:: uart.any()
Return the number of characters available for reading.
.. method:: uart.read([nbytes])
Read characters. If ``nbytes`` is specified then read at most that many bytes.
.. only:: port_pyboard
*Note:* for 9 bit characters each character takes two bytes, ``nbytes`` must
be even, and the number of characters is ``nbytes/2``.
Return value: a bytes object containing the bytes read in. Returns ``b''``
on timeout.
.. only:: port_wipy
Return value: a bytes object containing the bytes read in. Returns ``b''``
on timeout.
.. method:: uart.readall()
Read as much data as possible.
Return value: a bytes object.
.. method:: uart.readchar()
Receive a single character on the bus.
Return value: The character read, as an integer. Returns -1 on timeout.
.. method:: uart.readinto(buf[, nbytes])
Read bytes into the ``buf``. If ``nbytes`` is specified then read at most
that many bytes. Otherwise, read at most ``len(buf)`` bytes.
Return value: number of bytes read and stored into ``buf``.
.. method:: uart.readline()
Read a line, ending in a newline character.
Return value: the line read.
.. method:: uart.write(buf)
.. only:: port_pyboard
Write the buffer of bytes to the bus. If characters are 7 or 8 bits wide
then each byte is one character. If characters are 9 bits wide then two
bytes are used for each character (little endian), and ``buf`` must contain
an even number of bytes.
Return value: number of bytes written.
.. method:: uart.writechar(char)
Write a single character on the bus. ``char`` is an integer to write.
Return value: ``None``.
.. only:: port_wipy
Write the buffer of bytes to the bus.
Return value: number of bytes written.
.. method:: uart.sendbreak()
Send a break condition on the bus. This drives the bus low for a duration
of 13 bits.
Return value: ``None``.
.. only:: port_wipy
.. method:: uart.callback(value, priority=1, handler=None)
Create a callback to be triggered when data is received on the UART.
- ``value`` sets the size in bytes of the Rx buffer. Every character
received is put into this buffer as long as there's space free.
- ``priority`` level of the interrupt. Can take values in the range 1-7.
Higher values represent higher priorities.
- ``handler`` an optional function to be called when new characters arrive.
.. note::
The handler will be called whenever any of the following two conditions are met:
- 4 new characters have been received.
- At least 1 new character is waiting in the Rx buffer and the Rx line has been
silent for the duration of 1 complete frame.
This means that when the handler function is called there might be 1, 2, 3 or 4
characters waiting.
Return a callback object.
