Hello everybody,

I'm using LPCXpresso 1769 and LPCXpresso 1343 in my project ,LPC1343 sends data by uart to LPC1769, i try them separately with UART to USB, they are both working, but yesterday i try to connect them, LPC1343 didnt send any data, i disconnect and test them, LPC1769 woks properly,but LPC1343 UART doesnt work but it works all other tasks, i checked my program all pins are properly setted, uart initialize is ok, it enters interrupt when it starts and sends data but no data send or receive

It took too long, :) if anyone knows any solution or encountered this problem, any solution will be helpful, thx in advance

According to UM10375 Page 201 - 203, it needs to adjust the DIVADDVAL and MULVAL values if the baud rate is modified.
LPC13xx_Sample Software v1.07 uarttest program did NOT setup them. Why ?

To get slower baudrates it's possible to set UARTCLKDIV higher.

Sample:

void UARTInit(uint32_t baudrate)
{
...
  LPC_SYSCON->UARTCLKDIV = [color=#f00]100[/color];     /* divided by 1 */
...

  UARTInit(1);              //set 1 bps, LED is showing each bit 1 second!!!!

  {/* Loop forever */
i++;
if(i>10E6)
{
 i =0;
 UARTSend( (uint8_t *)UARTBuffer,1);
}
  }
}

This code is really working with 1 bps...

Without Scope you can check your UART with a LED and slow baudrate. LPC1343 is working until 70 bps.

Transmitting 0x00 is generating a 128ms low signal. If you connect a LED and an 1k resistor you can see this LED blinking.

thx i will also try that with new mcu, thanks for all replies

UART can be damaged if TX is connected to TX. I've never tried that. A good way to avoid this accidents are 2k resistors in your UART connection wires. So one UART can't fry the other...

:D it happened first time and i use uart everywhere :) but now i m gonna use I2C :D i ll try my chance, but i think when other mcu started its pins are not setted o UART maybe lpc1343's UART pin drive couln't handle this, maybe i must use driver or isolator, maybe rs232 or rs485 ?

...but what do you think caused this damage,

You :)

Usually they are not easy to destroy. So I would double-check your UART connection...

Sorry i dont have osicloscope, but i try o sen data in every baudrate with sample program but no out,

I just tried to use gpio on the pins but its not working, i think lpc1343 pins are damaged, but MCU works only those pins :) i will order new one but what do you think caused this damage,

Can you scope TX with a simple transmit loop (just transmit a byte 10 times / second) ?

If there's no signal (even with LPCXpresso sample program) your LPC1343 could be damaged.

Are this pins working if you switch them to GPIO & OUT?

No it was working, first i connect my lpc1769 to uart usb bridge and it was working , then i connect my lpc1343 tu uart usb bridge it was also working, when i connnect them to each other lpc1343's UART was gone, and when i try to connect it to uart usb bridge it was not working,

I didn't test my program, with another LPC1343 if wont work i ll buy new one,

Also rxd and txd pins are short circuited know in no power, gnd to pin resistance 4.7k, 3.3V to pin resistance 0.5M may be it helps.

thx for help and sorry for bad English :)

in IO_CON i set pins rxd and txd and they are pull-up i also checked them in peripherals,

i checked my program...

Could be useful to reduce your project to the basic problem and post it.

Did you change anything? Did it stop to work all over sudden?

Did you test your program with another LPC1343?

You know there is a bit to enable the GPIO input (not just direction, like in older uC)?
I can't remember the name, look in User Manual where the GPIO is described and setup (pull-up, pull-down, ...).
