The uart_driver_install() function installs the driver’s internal interrupt handler to manage the Tx and Rx ring buffers and provides high-level API functions like events (see below). The mask of all interrupts is available as UART_INTR_MASK. You can enable or disable specific interrupts by calling uart_enable_intr_mask() or uart_disable_intr_mask() respectively. The full list of available interrupts is provided in ESP32 Technical Reference Manual > UART Controller (UART) > UART Interrupts and UHCI Interrupts. There are many interrupts that can be generated following specific UART states or detected errors. This identification is needed for all the following function calls. The UART driver’s functions identify each of the UART controllers using uart_port_t. Step 4 is where the UART starts operating.

Steps 1 to 3 comprise the configuration stage. Using Interrupts - Triggering interrupts on specific communication eventsĭeleting a Driver - Freeing allocated resources if a UART communication is no longer required Running UART Communication - Sending / receiving data Setting Communication Pins - Assigning pins for connection to a device.ĭriver Installation - Allocating ESP32’s resources for the UART driver.

Setting Communication Parameters - Setting baud rate, data bits, stop bits, etc. The overview reflects a typical programming workflow and is broken down into the sections provided below:

Note: Please keep attention when ordering this board, because this shield is only for LuaV3 Nodemcu model. So that software developers can easily operate hardware devices. Allows developers to deal with the underlying hardware in a manner similar to For Arduino. It uses Lua scripting language programming. Nodemcu Baseboard NodeMcu Lua WIFI Development Board ESP8266 Serial Port Baseboard is an open-source networking platform. This baseboard is the Breakout Board for our NodeMcu ESP8266 V3 Lua CH340 Wifi Dev.
