    Hi,

    The uPSD321x datasheet states (table 45) that the max. baud rate of UART in mode0 is 1MHz (constraining the Xtal freq. to 12MHz).

    I haven't seen this kind of constraint in other '51 clones.

    Is this true?

    Have a nice day!

    In uart mode0 the Baud rate is defined as Osc/12 and is fixed, as far as I am aware this has always been the case on 8051.

    Regards

    Yes, but what about the MAXIMUM baud rate?

    I have tested Modeo using uart0, I got 1Mhz.

    Yes, of course, this is what I expected (as other '51 clones work this way).

    But why then the ''max. 1MHz'' in datasheet of uPSD321x Table 45, page62?

    PS. FrankJ, what is your device? Could you try it also @ 40MHz?

    I don't quite understand:

    - what was the Xtal frequency? 12MHz?

    - did you try higher Xtal frequency? and mode0 baud was still 1MHz?

    I use 24M crystal on the board and uart 0 mode 0 mode, I got 2M speed.

    ST3234A, I don't have 40Mhz crystal on hand.
