A Systematic Analysis of The UART Transceiver Theory and Application

Abstract

This article introduces the theoretical foundation and application of Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) in four chapters, including the history and structure of UART transceivers, and so on. UART is a kind of communication hardware using serial Asynchronous communication, which has the advantages of simple structure and good stability. It can convert serial data and parallel data to each other and transmit data between devices. It is widely used on various devices. In the 50 years since its invention, it has undergone many improvements and improvements. In the end, UART transceivers became one of the extremely important hardware in modern electronic technology. At present, UART transceivers are applied in many fields, including healthcare, the Internet of Things, and avionics. Its application in the fields of healthcare and the Internet of Things is of great significance, providing more possibilities for a more convenient life for humanity. Meanwhile, researchers are also attempting to continue improving the transmission speed of UART transceivers and reducing their power consumption.
