Using the i.MX53 UART CTS signal for automatic transmission control.

[mmichaelis]

Can the UART on the i.MX53 use the CTS signal to automatically enable when transmitting and disable at the end of transmission.

This would be useful for doing half-duplex RS-485 communications.

Hi mmichaelis

unfortunatey not, i.MX53 UART does not fully support RS485 mode

(in particular direction control), opposite to i.MX6 UART, which supports that.

Best regards
