LPC55 UART RX FIFO OVERFLOW

SiuHo1 — Tue, 19 Jul 2022 10:24:02 GMT

Hi, I am trying to implement an uart protocol which uses dma transfer.

My problem is when the transferred character is more than the defined data size, the excessive character arrived later and remains in the rx fifo. I have tried to flush the fifo by using macro "USART_FIFOCFG_EMPTYRX(1);" but this didn't help.

Similar behaviour can be replicated with the SDK example freertos_usart. The defined data size is 4 characters and if I send "12345", the "5" remains in the fifo and the last character of the next incoming character will get truncated.

Can anyone recommend how this can be address? thanks.

#data batch	1	2
Tx	12345	9876 <- missing
Rx	1234	5987

I am using LPC55S69 development kit and the SDK version is 2.10.1 and IDE v11.5.0.

Hi,

For the function calling

USART_RTOS_Receive(&handle, recv_buffer, sizeof(recv_buffer), &n)

The operating system will be blocked at the above function until number of characters predefined by length variables(sizeof(recv_buffer)) has been received.

I think the system behaves normally, if you send 5 characters for once transfer, after 4 characters have been received, USART_RTOS_Receive() will be unblocked. The remaining one character will be treated as next receiving process.

BTW, I suppose that you'd better not to change the low level driver of SDK or Freertos as you have done to call the USART_FIFOCFG_EMPTYRX(1);, which will miss the characters.

Hope it can help you

Hi XiangJun,

Thanks for point out the expected behaviour. However, I am trying to implement error handling as my program expects incoming command from serial port and it should raise an error if the entered command has the wrong format (wrong command / length of command character is wrong).

Could you please advise how I can clear the rx fifo before the next command comes in as calling USART_FIFOCFG_EMPTYRX(1); doesn't seem to flush anything? Thanks!
