Linux嵌入式开发学习之UART的学习。

UART

OVERVIEW(概述)

The S3C2440A Universal Asynchronous Recevier and Transmitter（UART） Provide three independent Asynchronous Serial I/O port.

（S3C2440A 提供三个独立的通用异步接受发送的异步串口 I/O 端口）

each of which operate in interrupt-based or DMA-based Mode.（每个都在基于中断或基于DMA模式下运行)

In other words.（换句话说）

The UART can generate an interrupt and DMA request to transfer data Between CPU and The UART.

(UART能产生中断和DMA请求，用于在CPU和UART之间传输数据)

The UART can support rate up 921.6Kpbs using system clock.

(UART使用系统时钟可以支持最大921.6Kpbs的速率)

if an external device provides the UART whith UEXTCLK.

(如果外部设备为UART提供UEXTCLK)

Then the UART Operate at higher speed.

(那么UART能运行更高的速度)

each UART Channel contains two 64 Byte FIFOs for receiver and transmitter
