Hello,

I'm using LPC 3250 Developer's Kit. I want to study the UART 5 with the TX interrupt enabled. Here is the piece of c code compiled using RVDS and debugged using DSTREAM.

The program is transmitting the characters to hyper terminal but I was expecting the character 'I' to be transmitted when it enters the IRQ ISR. But it didn't.

Need your assistance to generate interrupt in IRQ mode for UART 5 Transmission.

Thank You
S GR
