UART1 has the following features :

32 bytes of FIFO for both receive and transmit

FIFO threshold interrupts

1 start bit, 7 or 8 data bits, 1 optional parity bit, 1 or 2 stop bits

Programmable baud rate

Auto-configuration mode with auto-baud and auto-format operation

Hardware flow control

Software flow control.

UART1 signals replicate a 9-pin RS232 (V.24) serial port. However, UART1 signal levels are not compliant with the RS232 (V.28) standard. Conversion between the wireless modem CMOS levels and RS232 levels can be achieved using a standard interface IC, such as the Maxim Integrated Products MAX3237. The relationship between the levels is shown in the table below.

5.11.2 Serial Data Signals (DTM1, DFM1)

The default baud rate of the UARTs is auto-baud. Baud rates of between 600 bauds to 460 kbauds are possible. The wireless modem also supports 3GPP TS27.010 multiplexing protocol, which starts when the appropriate command is sent.

5.11.2.1Serial Data From Wireless modem (DFM1)

DFM1 is an output signal that the wireless modem uses to send data via UART1 to the host application.

5.11.2.2Serial Data To Wireless modem (DTM1)

DTM1 is an input signal, used by the application to send data via UART1 to the wireless modem.
