Chapter 17: LPC24XX Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter
describes how to use TxEn bit in order to achieve hardware flow
control, it is strongly suggested to let UART1 hardware implemented auto flow control
features take care of this, and limit the scope of TxEn to software flow control.
features take care of this, and limit the scope of TxEn to software flow control.
LPC2400’s U1TER enables implementation of software and hardware flow control. When
TXEn=1, UART1 transmitter will keep sending data as long as they are available. As soon
as TXEn becomes 0, UART1 transmission will stop.

Architecture
The architecture of the UART1 is shown below in the block diagram.
The APB interface provides a communications link between the CPU or host and the
UART1.
UART1.
The UART1 receiver block, U1RX, monitors the serial input line, RXD1, for valid input.
The UART1 RX Shift Register (U1RSR) accepts valid characters via RXD1. After a valid
character is assembled in the U1RSR, it is passed to the UART1 RX Buffer Register FIFO
to await access by the CPU or host via the generic host interface.

The UART1 transmitter block, U1TX, accepts data written by the CPU or host and buffers
the data in the UART1 TX Holding Register FIFO (U1THR). The UART1 TX Shift Register
(U1TSR) reads the data stored in the U1THR and assembles the data to transmit via the
serial output pin, TXD1.

The UART1 Baud Rate Generator block, U1BRG, generates the timing enables used by
the UART1 TX block. The U1BRG clock input source is the APB clock (PCLK). The main
clock is divided down per the divisor specified in the U1DLL and U1DLM registers. This
divided down clock is a 16x oversample clock, NBAUDOUT.

TXEN
When this bit is 1, as it is after a Reset, data written to the THR
is output on the TXD pin as soon as any preceding data has
been sent. If this bit cleared to 0 while a character is being sent,
the transmission of that character is completed, but no further
characters are sent until this bit is set again. In other words, a 0
in this bit blocks the transfer of characters from the THR or TX
FIFO into the transmit shift register. Software can clear this bit
when it detects that the a hardware-handshaking TX-permit
signal (CTS) has gone false, or with software handshaking,
when it receives an XOFF character (DC3). Software can set
this bit again when it detects that the TX-permit signal has gone
true, or when it receives an XON (DC1) character.
