2.8 Serial Data Interfaces
The serial channels, consisting of three UARTs, are asynchronous
communication links to the application or accessory units. UART1 has
RS-232 functionality. UART2 and UART3 behave as general-purpose
serial data links. In addition they are used for accessories and GPS
respectively.
Digital 2.75V CMOS input/output electrical characteristics apply.
The standard character format consists of 1 start bit, 8 bit data, no parity
and 1 stop bit. In all, there are 10 bits per character.
2.8.1 UART1 (RS232) - RD, TD, RTS, CTS, DTR, DCD and RI
UART1 signals conform to a 9-pin RS232 (V.24) serial port, except for
the DSR (CCITT No 107) signal. The DSR signal has been removed as
it is usually connected to DTR in most systems.
