NEED help in building a function with UART RX

[arunkollam]

Can any one have an idea in building a function which will wait only for 10 ms after that it jumps from the loop and clear the previous data s stored in both uarts (UART0 AND UART1).My intention is that UART 1 will not wait for the remaining characters,after a particular time.The UART is waiting inside the loop for the remaining characters which never occur. so i need to flush the previously stored characters in the buffers(UART1 & 2) and need to start the program by accepting new character from UART0.

int UART0_getchar (void) {


      while (!(LPC_UART0->LSR & 0x01))

      {
    	 
      }
    }
      return (LPC_UART0->RBR);






    int UART1_getchar (void)
    {


      while (!(LPC_UART1->LSR & 0x01))

      {
        
          }
          return (LPC_UART1->RBR);
     }

write interrupts based

you can set the URXISEL bit so that the interrupt clears UART after some defined length.

for example,
U1STAbits.URXISEL = 0b11; // Interrupt flag bit is set when Receive Buffer is 4 full (i.e., has 4 data characters)
I used dsPIC30f5011

write like this

---

Code C - [expand]
1
2
3
4
Time = 0;
 
while (  (!(LPC_UART0->LSR & 0x01))   && (Time<LIMIT) )
Time++;

---

You can adjust the limit values with your baud rate ( for 1 byte delay)

Hi venkadeshm ,

How can i adjust the limit with baud rate?what is the use of that?can you please explain it for me?
my baud rate used for receiving and transmitting is 9600.

Thanks
Arun

 

[Venkadesh_M]

The LIMIT is a macro and the value shd be more than the delay for 1 byte for example for 9600 baud rate

1 bit delay is 1/9600 and 10 bit delay (with start and stop bits) 1/960 sec.. so the value of limit is to remain in the while for atleast 2ms...

Hi
Iam attaching the UART function used in my program.please have a look at the code( the LPC UART init) and discribe the proper way to implement it

//****************************************************************************
// LPC122X Hardware setup
//
//****************************************************************************
// taken from NXP example code for LPB12000 to calculate baud rate setup
// This involves solving an equation with 2 or 3 unknowns depending on how you interpret
// the formula in the user manual.

// This is quite complex to solve so instead of writing from scratch, I've
// taken this example code including uart_set_divisors().
// This has been split into 2 routines: 1 for UART0 and another for UART1
// This allows me the option of changing the setup for one without compromising
// the other.

// The UART init routine has a precalculated default included for 115200
// If the baudrate is set to this in the defines, the precalculated version is used
// instead of calculating it.

// This calculating routine simply works so I've copied all the defines etc in a big block
// rather than work out which ones are not needed.

iam using a an internal oscillator of 12 Mhz.

Hi venkadeshm
can i use delay(2) directly in Limit in first case?

- - - Updated - - -

Can you please explain the function of this

(LPC_UART0->LSR & 0x01)

 

[Venkadesh_M]

you cant use delay(2) because it will just waste the time and never monitor the receiver status..

when the receive completes LSB of the LPC_UART0->LSR register is sets for getting the LSB we & with 00000001..

 

[arunkollam]

:lol::lol:

i am bit confused in choosing the value for the LIMIT

 

[Venkadesh_M]

you cant just choose the value because you must to know the delay for executing while once so only you can choose number of times that while can execute for desired delay...

you can do trial and error or viewing the assembly conversion of while loop you can find number of cycles delay for it to execute..

 

[arunkollam]

i prefer the trial and error method, so i just defined

#define LIMIT 2

- - - Updated - - -

#define END_COMMAND 0x00

main(void)

{
	
uint32_t *temp_ptr;

	int pelcod_payload_status = 0;
	int pelcod_message_type = 0;


	//int i = 0 ; // counter






// Initialise the LEDs
LED_init();

// Initialise the RS232/RS485 ports
UART0_init();
UART1_init();
while (FOREVER)

	{

		pelcod_payload_status = A_get_osiris_payload();


	switch (pelcod_payload_status)
	{

	case END_COMMAND:

	break; 	// Our work is done so leave this case statement,

	default:
	//Unknown error HELP!!!!!!
	//If we have got here something has seriously gone wrong as we should always get a valid error message
	break;
	}
	}
}

Any comments plz Venkadeshm ????

 

[Venkadesh_M]

2 is a very very low value try 2000..

 

[arunkollam]

i tried values 2000 and 5000, but now my U0 not rx charactor,waits in the while loop, iam going to implement the same function there too

    int UART0_getchar (void) {


      while (!(LPC_UART0->LSR & 0x01))
      {

      }
      return (LPC_UART0->RBR);
    }

- - - Updated - - -

int UART1_getchar (void)
       {
        unsigned long time;
        
        Time = 0;
        while (  (!(LPC_[B][U]UART0[/U][/B]->LSR & 0x01))   && (Time<LIMIT) )  // waits till a char to receive or time for 2 bytes to receive
        Time++;
 
        if ( time  == LIMIT )                                                   // if time == LIMIT that means its exited the while with time delay
        retun FAIL;
 
        return (LPC_UART1->RBR);                                          // if successfully data received return received data
       }

I think you mean UART 1 in this code coz iam rx via UART1

 

[Venkadesh_M]

put it in your receive port....

 

[arunkollam]

the programs again stuks inside the while loop by incrementing the time, it is not checking the if time == limit. when the program got stuck, i went to debug mode and find out that the program loop between while and time++...



my project uses uart 0 and uart 1 for both reception and transmission 0 receives and transmit through uart1 and wait (uart1) for receiving the acknowledgement of the transmitted data.sometimes they will not send the ack or receives in error. so the UART 1 waits for a long time and the program get locks.only after the uart 1 rx an ack, the rx ack is transmitted via UART0, the cycle continuous...

 

[Venkadesh_M]

Ya it will be there untill it reaches LIMIT value watch the time value.... and in some IDEs the uART wont function correctly in debug mode... And If you clearly explain your application I could say exactly what you want to do...
