UART ON DE1 Board from XBee wireless device

I am trying to write a Uart driver in VHDL on the DE1 board using the cyclone II chip. The data is coming from the XBee wireless device. I am putting the Data out signal from the wireless device to the GPIO pins on the DE1 board.

9600 baud rate

1 start bit

8 data bits

no parity

1 stop bit

it is just one wire going from the xbee to gpio.

I understand what i am trying to do, but putting it into code has been difficult. Does someone know a good way to code the process for this?

    Hi Jim3941,

    Now, i also try to do this kind of project.

    i want to use xbee with QUARTUS Verilog and nios ii.

    So, if you have already finished it, would you like to teach me?

    Thank you.
