This application report describes the implementation of a hardware/software universal asynchronous receiver transmitter (UART) function on the MSP430x31x, MSP430x32x, and MSP430x33x families of 16-bit RISC-like mixed-signal processors using the integrated 8-bit interval timer/counter (8-bit T/C). The UART function described in this report is half-duplex, event-driven, and supports an 8N1 protocol using an RS232 interface. Baud rates from 1,200–115,200 baud are possible.
