Description

Implements a 16550/16750 UART. The UART core is fully based on another OpenCores project: UART_16750 by Sebastian Witt.
Please find there the documentation regarding the Uart core.
The interface is now compatible with a 8-bit WishBone bus.

With GHDL simulator simply run:
./ghdl_uart.bat

Using any other simulator, before starting the simulation the following perl script must be run:
uart_test_stim.pl > filename.txt
where filename.txt is the name selected in generic "stim_file" inside wb8_uart_transactor.vhd.

A correct simulation should exit with an assertion message "simulation END".
