11.3.1.6.1. Include End-of-Packet Register
When this setting is on, the UART core includes:
- A 7-, 8-, or 9-bit endofpacket register at address-offset 5. The data width is determined by the Data Bits setting.
- EOP bit in the status register.
- IEOP bit in the control register.
- endofpacket signal.
EOP detection can be used with a DMA controller, for example, to implement a UART that automatically writes received characters to memory until a specified character is encountered in the incoming RXD stream. The terminating (EOP) character's value is determined by the endofpacket register.
When the EOP register is disabled, the UART core does not include the EOP resources. Writing to the endofpacket register has no effect, and reading produces an undefined value.
