[En-Nut-Discussion] UART0 receive problem

[Prasad.Nagapati at infineon.com]

Hi Harald,

As you mentioned I am using UART1 now, and connected it to directly the
smart card I/O line which operates at +5V.
Smart card settings are 9600, 8 data bit, Even parity, 1 stop bit. Even
I configured the same in my code also.

But I am getting random data, what could be the reason, do I need an
inverter before connecting to the Rx of UART1?

Please help me regarding this. Sample code below

/*
 * Sniffer code sample.
 */
int main(void)
{
    int got;
    int i;
    u_long baud = 9600;
	unsigned char parity = 2; // even parity
	unsigned char stopBit = 1; // 1 stop bit
    FILE *uart;
	FILE *uart1;
    TCPSOCKET *sock;
    u_char mac[6] = { 0x00, 0x06, 0x98, 0x00, 0x00, 0x55 };

    /* UART0*/
	NutRegisterDevice(&DEV_UART, 0, 0);
    uart = fopen(DEV_UART_NAME, "r+");

    _ioctl(_fileno(uart), UART_SETSPEED, &baud);
	_ioctl(_fileno(uart), UART_SETPARITY , &parity);
	_ioctl(_fileno(uart), UART_SETSTOPBITS, &stopBit);

	/*UART1 */

	NutRegisterDevice(&DEV_UART1, 0, 0);
	uart1 = fopen(DEV_UART1_NAME, "r+");
    _ioctl(_fileno(uart1), UART_SETSPEED, &baud);
	_ioctl(_fileno(uart1), UART_SETPARITY , &parity);
	_ioctl(_fileno(uart1), UART_SETSTOPBITS, &stopBit);

	/* ETHERNUT */
	NutRegisterDevice(&DEV_ETHER, 0x8300, 5);
    NutNetLoadConfig(DEV_ETHER_NAME);
    memcpy(confnet.cdn_mac, mac, 6);
    NutNetSaveConfig();

    /*
     * Setup the ethernet device. Try DHCP first. If this is
     * the first time boot with empty EEPROM and no DHCP server
     * was found, use hardcoded values.
     */
    if (NutDhcpIfConfig("eth0", 0, 60000)) 
	{
        if (NutDhcpIfConfig("eth0", mac, 60000)) 
		{
            u_long ip_addr = inet_addr("192.168.192.100");
            u_long ip_mask = inet_addr("255.255.255.0");

            NutNetIfConfig("eth0", mac, ip_addr, ip_mask);
            /* If not in a local network, we must also call 
               NutIpRouteAdd() to configure the routing. */
        }
    }

	fprintf(uart,"IP: %s\n", inet_ntoa(confnet.cdn_ip_addr));


    /*

     * from the input buffer. If the buffer is empty, the call will

    if ((sock = NutTcpCreateSocket()) != 0) 
	{
        /*
            * Listen on port 23. If we return, we got a client.
            */
        if (NutTcpAccept(sock, 23) == 0) 
		{

            /*

            if ((stream = _fdopen((int) sock, "r+b")) != 0) 
			{
				/*

				fputs_P(banner_P, stream);
				/*

				fflush(stream);
				for (i = 0;; i++) 
				{

					got = _read(_fileno(uart1),

					fprintf(stream,"bytes read

					for(i=0;i<got;i++)
					{

					fprintf(stream,"\r\n");
					
				}
				
			}
		}
	}
	/*
     * Nut/OS never expects a thread to return. So we enter an 
     * endless loop here.
     */
    /*

    NutTcpCloseSocket(sock);

If the smart card interface is 5V then you simply connect expansion port
pin 39. And, of course, GND (pins 5, 6, 7 or 8).

First problem:
You need to remove R18, otherwise the RX output of IC6 will work against
your smart card and one of them will become damaged sooner or later.
This is an intentionally larger SMD resistor, so it shouldn't be too
difficult to remove it.

Second problem:
Needless to say that, after removing R18, your receiver at the DB-9 is
gone.

Third problem:
When programming the board, you need to remove the new connection at pin
39. Otherwise programming will fail.

To avoid all these problems, why not use UART1 and connect the smart
card to expansion port pin 57?

Here's the expansion port layout
http://www.ethernut.de/en/hardware/enut1/ports.html
(Do not mount R33! This is for UART1 routed to the DB-9 only.)

For the software use

NutRegisterDevice(&DEV_UART1, 0, 0);
fp = fopen(DEV_UART1_NAME, "r+");
fread(fp,....);

The big advantage is, that you don't need to modify the hardware and
UART0 at the DB-9 connector is still available.

Harald
