| 21 | +UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) is a simple serial |
| 22 | +communication protocol which allows two devices to talk to each other. |
| 23 | +
|
| 24 | +This decoder should work on all "UART-like" async protocols with one |
| 25 | +start bit (0), 5-9 databits, an (optional) parity bit, and one or more |
| 26 | +stop bits (1), in this order. |
| 27 | +
|
| 28 | +It can be run on one signal line (RX or TX) only, or on two lines (RX + TX). |
| 29 | +
|
| 30 | +There are various standards for the physical layer specification of the |
| 31 | +signals, including RS232, (TTL) UART, RS485, and others. However, the logic |
| 32 | +level of the respective pins is only relevant when acquiring the data via |
| 33 | +a logic analyzer (you have to select the correct logic analyzer and/or |
| 34 | +the correct place where to probe). Once the data is in digital form and |
| 35 | +matches the "UART" description above, this protocol decoder can work with |
| 36 | +it though, no matter whether the source was on TTL UART levels, or RS232, |
| 37 | +or others. |
