S32K3 UART FIFO

[li3]

Hi NXP，

    I am learning to use LPUART with S32K312 and can not find the code to set the FIFO function of LPUART in the generated driver code.

    Does LPUART not need to use FIFO? Or I did not find the code to set the FIFO function of LPUART, please tell me the location of the code, thank you.

Best regards,

Li 3.

Hi @li3,

The RTD LPUART driver does not use the FIFOs.

Hi Daniel，

    Can you explain why you don't use FIFO? thank you.

Probably because of the increased complexity that it would require.

Hi Daniel，

    Can DMA be used instead of FIFO?

Hi @li3,

DMA can be used, but this is not a replacement for the FIFO.

We can use either Interrups or DMA to transfer data to the DATA register, regardless whether the FIFOs are enabled or not.

Hi Daniel，

   Can you tell me how to receive data with an interrupt to know that the data is complete?

    And how do you know when the data is received using DMA?

Use the Lpuart_Uart_Ip_AsyncReceive() function.

And the LPUART callback.

There are these events (Lpuart_Uart_Ip_Types.h):

Hi Daniel，

    Can interrupt and DMA receive only fixed-length data?

    For example, if size is set to 20, only 20 characters can be received to call back the call back function, and if only 10 characters are received, the call back function will not be called. May I ask how can I know that RX has completed the data reception this time?

There is this API that can be used to extend the AsyncReceive() call from the callback:

Also, the application can call Lpuart_Uart_Ip_GetReceiveStatus() to get the status of the call.

Hi Daniel，

    Which register does DMA store data, and where is it in the chip manual?

    How do I get the data out of the DMA register?

Best regards,

Hi @li3,

I don't understand the question.

Can you elaborate?

[li3]

Hi Daniel，

    When using DMA reception, is the received data first stored in the DMA register? Or do you just save it to RxBuff?

    For example: If RxSize is set to 100, but there are only 50 pieces of data, where are the 50 pieces of data stored?

Best regards,

Hi @li3,

The eDMA transfers the RX data from the LPUART data register to the SRAM buffer.

The data are not stored anyware in the eDMA module.

Refer to the eMDA description in the RM or to this AN:

Hi Daniel,

I want to use DMA receive to get the data received by DMA after generating idle interrupt, please tell me to implement, thank you.
