UART

ZipCPU comes to the rescue again with a UART implementation with a Wishbone interface. The BoxLambda variant of the wbuart core contains modifications for enabling and clearing specific interrupt events. These modifications are documented in a separate section of the core's spec.

Core Parameters

The Wbuart core is instantiated with the following parameters:

  • Rx and Tx FIFO Size: 16 bytes.
  • Hardware Flow Control Support: Enabled.
  • Initial Setup:
    • 1000000 baud
    • 8 bits/word
    • no parity
    • 1 stop bit
    • Hardware Flow Control disabled

Wbuart Clock Frequency

The Wbuart core is part of the 50MHz System Clock Domain.
