How to create Uart (RS-232) of 2 000 000 bps in SOPC Builder?

The question is: We use RS-232 of 2 000 000 bps, and due to the fact that speed never changes, there is no necessity in software initialization. Is there any possibility to create UART of 2 000 000 b...

Sure.

If you use the standard UART module supplied with sopc builder, you have both choices in component properties: fixed baud rate (defined in sopc builder) or programmable by means of a divisor register.

If you use another custom UART core, you still have a divisor/baudrate register: simply set it to the fixed value you require.
