UART Receiver and Transmitter modules

Description: This project provides two modules rx and tx. They can be used to interface your fpga with a uart.

For example, you may want to connect your FPGA to a max232 and communicate with your computer via a DB9 serial cable. I myself use a little USB to TLL bridge with a PL2303 chip.

There are two modules with the following common:

  • The clk should be 4x your desired baud rate (used for oversampling)
  • There res_n signal is a active low asynchronous reset

RX Receiver

The receiver has the following timing diagram.

  • The rdy signal will be high for one clock cycle after the rx_byte is ready.

Receiver Timing

TX Transmitter

The transmitter has the following timeing diagram. Note:

  • The stb strobe signal must be high for at least one clk edge.

Transmitter Timing

Project Status/TODO

  • Compiles
  • Simulated
  • Confirmed in FPGA

Project Setup

This project has been developed with quartus II.
