Hello Giovanni,

I understand your comment but the problem with Serial is that it is missing parameters like stop bits, word length, parity.

You set them in the initialisation structure - it has a field for control register CR1 of the UART:

Code: Select all

/**
 * Calculate value for CR1 based on data bits, parity, mode
 *
 * Note: Configured data bits include a bit for parity if enabled
 *
 * USART_CR1_M1 -   1 for 7-bit data (no parity); 0 otherwise
 * USART_CR1_M0 -   0 for 7-bit, 8-bit data (7,n or 8,n or 7,o or 7,e)
 *                  1 for 9-bit data (9,n or 8,o or 8,e)
 * USART_CR1_PCE    1 to enable parity
 * USART_CR1_PS     Parity selection - 0 for even, 1 for odd
 * USART_CR1_DEDT   Auto-RTS delay - set to maximum
 * USART_CR1_DEAT   Auto-RTS delay - set to maximum
 */

Hi All,

are you accepting updates on the USARTv1 LLD stuff ?

I've got an update available for it that adds support for UART7 and UART8.

I've attached a zip containing the changed files for hal_uart_lld.c hal_uart_lld.h

They are in <whatever-root>\ChibiOS\os\hal\ports\STM32\LLD\USARTv1

Kind regards,

Peter

Hi,

Any chance you can look into adding @piwi1263 contribution to add support for UART7/8 in USARTv1?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Any update on adding support (or the submitted solution from piwi1263) to fix Uart 7/8 support for STM32F4?

We have a board based of STM32F469BIT for commercial product and would need this, just wondering if this is looked at?

Thanks.

Hi,

I merged it (to be tested) to trunk.

Great, thanks.

Just to clarify that STMF4 series starting from STM32F42x onward do have the Uart 7/8.
