Sending a byte over UART0

[nabeelfattah]

Hello,

I am using LPC4330 chip and LPCXpresso IDE for programming.

My target is sending and receiving data from UART. I write below code for sending 1 Byte of data as primary test but I can not see any things on the oscilloscope.

Can someone tell me where is the problem? I use UART example for writing this code.

Please, if you know how to use UART for sending and receiving data from UART let me know.

The code:

Hello Nabeel Fattah,

  You can refer to this post:

https://community.nxp.com/message/853121?commentID=853121#comment-853121 

  This is the test result:

  You also can refer to the lpcopen code for LPCXpresso IDE, I have test it,it can printf out the data.

Wish it helps you!

If you still have question, please let me know!

Have a great day,
Kerry
