PCU – Universal Asynchronous 
Receiver/Transmitter (UART)
This section describes the Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) serial 
port integrated into the PCU. The UART may be controlled through programmed IO.
Note:
Only a minimal ball-count, comprising receive & transmit signals, UART port is 
implemented. Further, a maximum baud rate of only 115,200 bps is supported. For this 
reason, it is recommended that the UART port be used for debug purposes only.
