https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/128635/nrf5340serialHello, I am working on a project using the nrf5340 MCU, and I am using the ncs version v1.6.1. I need to use 7 data bits, 2 stop bits, and even parity for the serial port. However, when I checked the function: static int uarte_nrfx_configure(consten-USTelligent Community 13Mon, 06 Jul 2026 06:31:58 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/568792?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 06 Jul 2026 06:31:58 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:d23bd825-55ea-4701-a994-b81678b7773cTurbo J<p>No. Read the UARTE chapter in the PS, its a hardware limitation.</p> <p>What you could do is to use 8 data bits with no (hardware) parity, and then calculate parity bit in software. The parity bit would be the data MSB.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
