12 years agoHi,
--- Quote Start --- I understand(maybe I'm wrong) that it has two modes: Polling and Interrupt. --- Quote End --- You are right. In polling mode, you have to read sometimes. In interrupt mode, your interrupt routine handles the received character. --- Quote Start --- In the Interrupt mode a driver should run automatically and store the data received in a circular way. --- Quote End --- Wrong, it only store ONE character (7 or 8 bits) --- Quote Start --- I tried to write to the uart more than 1 byte[...] --- Quote End --- I have employ FIFOed UART from http://www.alterawiki.com/wiki/fifoed_avalon_uart, a little difficult to "plug" in SOPC. OR Write your own buffer(s). It is not so difficult if you understood the principles. Reduced drivers : I think they don't work in Interrupt Mode.
