Macro for creating a UART driver instance.

Typedef Documentation

typedef void(* nrfx_uart_event_handler_t)( nrfx_uart_event_t const *p_event, void *p_context)

UART interrupt event handler.

Parameters

[in]	p_event	Pointer to event structure. Event is allocated on the stack so it is available only within the context of the event handler.
[in]	p_context	Context passed to interrupt handler, set on initialization.

Enumeration Type Documentation

enum nrfx_uart_evt_type_t

Types of UART driver events.

Enumerator
NRFX_UART_EVT_TX_DONE	Requested TX transfer completed.
NRFX_UART_EVT_RX_DONE	Requested RX transfer completed.
NRFX_UART_EVT_ERROR	Error reported by UART peripheral.

Function Documentation

uint32_t nrfx_uart_errorsrc_get ( nrfx_uart_t const * p_instance )

Function for reading error source mask. Mask contains values from nrf_uart_error_mask_t .

Note: Function should be used in blocking mode only. In case of non-blocking mode, an error event is generated. Function clears error sources after reading.

Parameters

[in] p_instance Pointer to the driver instance structure.

Return values

Mask	of reported errors.

__STATIC_INLINE uint32_t nrfx_uart_event_address_get	(	nrfx_uart_t const *	p_instance ,
		nrf_uart_event_t	event
	)

Function for getting the address of a specific UART event.

Parameters

[in]	p_instance	Pointer to the driver instance structure.
[in]	event	Event.

Returns: Event address.

nrfx_err_t nrfx_uart_init	(	nrfx_uart_t const *	p_instance ,
		nrfx_uart_config_t const *	p_config ,
		nrfx_uart_event_handler_t	event_handler
	)

Function for initializing the UART driver.

This function configures and enables UART. After this function GPIO pins are controlled by UART.

Parameters

[in]	p_instance	Pointer to the driver instance structure.
[in]	p_config	Pointer to the structure with initial configuration.
[in]	event_handler	Event handler provided by the user. If not provided driver works in blocking mode.

Return values

NRFX_SUCCESS	If initialization was successful.
NRFX_ERROR_INVALID_STATE	If driver is already initialized.
NRFX_ERROR_BUSY	If some other peripheral with the same instance ID is already in use. This is possible only if Peripheral Resource Sharing (PRS) module is enabled.

nrfx_err_t nrfx_uart_rx	(	nrfx_uart_t const *	p_instance ,
		uint8_t *	p_data ,
		size_t	length
	)

Function for receiving data over UART.

If an event handler was provided in the nrfx_uart_init() call, this function returns immediately and the handler is called when the transfer is done. Otherwise, the transfer is performed in blocking mode, i.e. this function returns when the transfer is finished. Blocking mode is not using interrupt so there is no context switching inside the function. The receive buffer pointer is double buffered in non-blocking mode. The secondary buffer can be set immediately after starting the transfer and will be filled when the primary buffer is full. The double buffering feature allows receiving data continuously.

Parameters

[in]	p_instance	Pointer to the driver instance structure.
[in]	p_data	Pointer to data.
[in]	length	Number of bytes to receive.

Return values

NRFX_SUCCESS	If initialization was successful.
NRFX_ERROR_BUSY	If the driver is already receiving (and the secondary buffer has already been set in non-blocking mode).
NRFX_ERROR_FORBIDDEN	If the transfer was aborted from a different context (blocking mode only, also see nrfx_uart_rx_disable ).
NRFX_ERROR_INTERNAL	If UART peripheral reported an error.

void nrfx_uart_rx_abort ( nrfx_uart_t const * p_instance )

Function for aborting any ongoing reception.

Note: NRFX_UART_EVT_TX_DONE event will be generated in non-blocking mode. It will contain number of bytes received until abort was called. The event handler will be called from the UART interrupt context.

Parameters

[in] p_instance Pointer to the driver instance structure.

void nrfx_uart_rx_disable ( nrfx_uart_t const * p_instance )

Function for disabling the receiver.

This function must be called to close the receiver after it has been explicitly enabled by

See Also: nrfx_uart_rx_enable .

Parameters

[in] p_instance Pointer to the driver instance structure.

void nrfx_uart_rx_enable ( nrfx_uart_t const * p_instance )

Function for enabling the receiver.

UART has a 6-byte-long RX FIFO and it is used to store incoming data. If a user does not call the UART receive function before the FIFO is filled, an overrun error will appear. The receiver must be explicitly closed by the user

See Also: nrfx_uart_rx_disable .

Parameters

[in] p_instance Pointer to the driver instance structure.

bool nrfx_uart_rx_ready ( nrfx_uart_t const * p_instance )

Function for testing the receiver state in blocking mode.

Parameters

[in] p_instance Pointer to the driver instance structure.

Return values

true	If the receiver has at least one byte of data to get.
false	If the receiver is empty.

__STATIC_INLINE uint32_t nrfx_uart_task_address_get	(	nrfx_uart_t const *	p_instance ,
		nrf_uart_task_t	task
	)

Function for getting the address of a specific UART task.

Parameters

[in]	p_instance	Pointer to the driver instance structure.
[in]	task	Task.

Returns: Task address.

nrfx_err_t nrfx_uart_tx	(	nrfx_uart_t const *	p_instance ,
		uint8_t const *	p_data ,
		size_t	length
	)

Function for sending data over UART.

If an event handler was provided in nrfx_uart_init() call, this function returns immediately and the handler is called when the transfer is done. Otherwise, the transfer is performed in blocking mode, i.e. this function returns when the transfer is finished. Blocking mode is not using interrupt so there is no context switching inside the function.

Parameters

[in]	p_instance	Pointer to the driver instance structure.
[in]	p_data	Pointer to data.
[in]	length	Number of bytes to send.

Return values

NRFX_SUCCESS	If initialization was successful.
NRFX_ERROR_BUSY	If driver is already transferring.
NRFX_ERROR_FORBIDDEN	If the transfer was aborted from a different context (blocking mode only).

void nrfx_uart_tx_abort ( nrfx_uart_t const * p_instance )

Function for aborting any ongoing transmission.

Note: NRFX_UART_EVT_TX_DONE event will be generated in non-blocking mode. It will contain number of bytes sent until abort was called. The event handler will be called from the function context.

Parameters

[in] p_instance Pointer to the driver instance structure.

bool nrfx_uart_tx_in_progress ( nrfx_uart_t const * p_instance )

Function for checking if UART is currently transmitting.

Parameters

[in] p_instance Pointer to the driver instance structure.

Return values

true	If UART is transmitting.
false	If UART is not transmitting.

void nrfx_uart_uninit ( nrfx_uart_t const * p_instance )

Function for uninitializing the UART driver.

Parameters

[in] p_instance Pointer to the driver instance structure.
