I choosed the VHDL USART circuit from this forum and read the
documentation. I was quite impressed about the complexity of this
module and was unable to figure out how to just send some single bytes
to my machine.
Maybe I overlooked one, but do you mean the Serial UART http://www.opencores.org/projects.cgi/web/uart or the UART 16550 http://www.opencores.org/projects.cgi/web/uart16550 The first one has a VHDL testbench, the later one only a Verilog one. If there is nothing in the documentation, the test bench might be the best place to look how they feed data into the core. Cheers, Guenter
Does someone have some lines of code that would give me a start to initialize this circuit? Many Thanks, Manue. _______________________________________________ http://www.opencores.org/mailman/listinfo/cores

Hello!

I am new to the FPGA thing and also new to this forum - so please
forgive me if I post to the wrong folder and point me to the direct one -

My current project is to aquire some data via an ADC controller, put it
to the SRAM and then send it to my PC.

So far I have managed to get some data to the SRAM and thougth it
would be fairly easy to transfer this data to my host pc.

I choosed the VHDL USART circuit from this forum and read the
documentation. I was quite impressed about the complexity of this
module and was unable to figure out how to just send some single bytes
to my machine.

Does someone have some lines of code that would give me a start to
initialize this circuit?

Many Thanks,
Manue.

Use uart16550 in Verilog. This version works fine. I'm not sure for other versions. Regards, Igor On 3/9/07, manuel.kampert at online.de manuel.kampert at online.de> wrote:

This BSD page has some good information on the standard UART register set. In general your FPGA will need to have either a small microprocessor or a state machine to program the initial parameters into the UART and then push data into and out of it.

most of the uarts on opencores come with tons of features hat you love if you got a cpu connected, if you just need a single baud-rate no fifo features no handshakes (or only cts/dts) you are better of looking at something as simple as http://direct.xilinx.com/bvdocs/appnotes/xapp341.pdf that gets communication up and running in a couple of hours. thilo Guy Hutchison wrote:
