The Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter
(UART) module is one of the serial I/O modules
available in the PIC24HJ12GP201/202 device family.
The UART is a full-duplex asynchronous system that
can communicate with peripheral devices, such as
personal computers, LIN, RS-232 and RS-485
interfaces. The module also supports a hardware flow
control option with the UxCTS and UxRTS pins and
also includes an IrDA
The primary features of the UART module are:
• Full-Duplex, 8- or 9-bit Data Transmission through
• Even, odd or no parity options (for 8-bit data)
• One or two stop bits
