UNIVERSAL ASYNCHRONOUS 
RECEIVER TRANSMITTER 
(UART)
The Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter
(UART) module is one of the serial I/O modules available
in the PIC24F device family. The UART is a full-duplex,
asynchronous system that can communicate with
peripheral devices, such as personal computers,
LIN/J2602, RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces. The module
also supports a hardware flow control option with the
UxCTS and UxRTS pins, and includes an IrDA
®
 encoder
and decoder.
The primary features of the UART module are:
• Full-Duplex, 8 or 9-Bit Data Transmission through 
the UxTX and UxRX Pins
• Even, Odd or No Parity Options (for 8-bit data)
• One or Two Stop bits
• Hardware Flow Control Option with the UxCTS 
and UxRTS Pins
• Fully Integrated Baud Rate Generator with 16-Bit 
Prescaler
• Baud Rates Ranging from 15 bps to 1 Mbps at 
16 MIPS
• 4-Deep, First-In-First-Out (FIFO) Transmit Data 
Buffer
• 4-Deep FIFO Receive Data Buffer
• Parity, Framing and Buffer Overrun Error Detection
• Support for 9-bit mode with Address Detect 
(9
th
 bit = 1)
• Transmit and Receive Interrupts
• Loopback mode for Diagnostic Support
• Support for Sync and Break Characters
• Supports Automatic Baud Rate Detection
• IrDA
®
 Encoder and Decoder Logic
• 16x Baud Clock Output for IrDA Support
A simplified block diagram of the UART is shown in
The UART module consists of these key
important hardware elements:
• Baud Rate Generator
• Asynchronous Transmitter
• Asynchronous Receiver
