my nrf52833 uart tx pin is low level when it is idle.

I find my uart tx pin is low level when it is idle . it is abnormal. 

how to change code to make it normal: hight level in idle.

thanks.

Hi,

I am not immediately able to explain that. Can you share/show how you have configurd and use the UART, both in code/configuration and hardware?

    NRF_UART0->PSEL.RXD = pinrx;

    NRF_UART0->PSEL.TXD = pintx;

    NRF_UART0->BAUDRATE = DEF_uart_baud; // value for 115200

&pinctrl {

    uart0_default: uart0_default {

        group1 {

            psels = <NRF_PSEL(UART_TX, 1, 1)>,  

                    <NRF_PSEL(UART_RX, 0, 4)>;

        };

       

    };

    uart0_sleep: uart0_sleep {

        group1 {

            psels = <NRF_PSEL(UART_TX, 1, 1)>, 

                    <NRF_PSEL(UART_RX, 0, 4)>;

        };

       

    };

is there some register to inverse the uart pin logic?  up to now, I cannot find the configuration about polarity。

the uart register would contol all the behavior?  which register would control the logic level. thanks.

Hi,

The nRF UARTE periphearl does not support inverse polarity, so this is not it. Does the other device have pull-up enabled on the Rx pin? If so, perhaps it woud make sense to enable pull-up on the Tx pin (though unconventional). That is also what we do on our development kits by default, see here.
