Hi,
We are using MK22Fx512 controller of Cortex-M4 series.
I want to use ADC (Pin 15/16/17) as UART-Rx or UART Tx pin as UART Rx because I don't have any UART pin left.
Will anyone suggest me how I will go about it?
Thanks in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi,
For pin No. 15, 16 and 17 only with ADC function, there is no way to using software UART with those pins.
For K22 UART supports Single-wire operation mode, the UART TX could be used as UART transmit and receive pin in a half-duplex working mode.
Please check below picture for the detailed info:
Wish it helps.
Have a great day,
Ma Hui

You can certainly implement a 'timer-banged' UART, ala' AN2637.
Reception can use virtually any GPIO -- set a falling-edge trigger to grab the leading edge of the 'start bit', then set a timer for 'somewhat less' than 1/2 bit-time (to compensate for interrupt-response on this, and the subsequent bit-interrupt), thence on that interrupt re-sample 'start' and if valid set 9 more 'full bit' timer-interrupts in succession to sample the input pin to build up the byte, and end by checking 'stop'. Variations in interrupt-response-time WILL affect the 'quality' of the 'center bit sampling'.
Sending is 'easier and better timed', but requires the use of a timer-output-pin. For each bit to send, you just set the 'software triggered' output mode, at the bit-width, and on each interrupt you set the NEXT 'state to set at timer expiration' per the next output-bit value. THIS interrupt-response time is 'relaxed' and only HAS to respond in less than a bit-time.

The MK22Fx512 is available in a number of packages and as far as I can tell (without being 100% sure though) the pins 15, 16 and 17 referred to are probably on a 64 pin part where they are exclusively ADC (no GPIO function).
Mayur - could you be more specific as to the part number (specifically the pin-count) and which pins are actually being referred to?

Hi Mark,
I am using MK22FX512VLL12 of kinetic K series. It have 100 pin package.
Pin No 15, 16 and 17 is dedicated to exclusively ADC.
Can i use this pin as UART Rx? if yes than How?
I have one more pin left UART Tx. Can i use UART-Tx as UART-Rx? if yes than How.
Please give your feedback.
Thanks.
