Design and Implementation of UART Using FPGA Board

Abstract

Abstract: This paper introduces the implementation of the Universal Asynchronous Receiver- Transmitter Controller (UART) based on Microprogrammed Controller on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA. Our UART design is fully functional and built-in. Coded using the Verilog design from top to bottom and visible in Spartan-3E FPGA using Xilinx ISE Webpack 14.7. Use results show that the design can work Spartan-3E FPGA maximum clock frequency of 218.248 MHz. The maximum frequent use of the UART controller is 192.773 MHz. of bits and hence this is why with a small amount of storage. Keywords: Receiver, Transmitter, Microprogrammed Controller and Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA).
