UARTE can't receive data

Did you set the pins in the config? By default, these are set to NRF_UARTE_PSEL_DISCONNECTED.

I tested this similar code, and I'm able to receive data in the event handler:

#define UART_RX_BUF_SIZE 10
static uint8_t my_uart_rx_buffer_assigned[UART_RX_BUF_SIZE] = {0x00};


static void my_uarte_event_handler(nrfx_uarte_event_t const * p_event,
                              void *                     p_context)
{
    if(p_event->type == NRFX_UARTE_EVT_RX_DONE)
    {
        memset(my_uart_rx_buffer_assigned, 0x00, UART_RX_BUF_SIZE);
    }
}

int main(void)
{
    bsp_board_init(BSP_INIT_LEDS);
    nrfx_uarte_t instance = NRFX_UARTE_INSTANCE(0);
    static nrfx_uarte_config_t my_uarte_config = NRFX_UARTE_DEFAULT_CONFIG;
    my_uarte_config.pselrxd = 8;
    my_uarte_config. pseltxd = 6;


    ret_code_t err_code = nrfx_uarte_init( &instance, &my_uarte_config ,  my_uarte_event_handler );

    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    err_code = nrfx_uarte_rx( &instance,
    (uint8_t*)my_uart_rx_buffer_assigned,
    UART_RX_BUF_SIZE);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
    

    while (true) 
    {
        __WFE();
    }
}

static nrfx_config_t my_uart_config = NRFX_UARTE_DEFAULT_CONFIG

err_code = nrfx_uarte_init( &mu_uarte,
&my_uarte_config ,
my_uarte_event_handler );

APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

nrfx_uarte_rx( &my_uart,
(uint8_t*)my_uart_rx_buffer_assigned,
UART_RX_BUF_SIZE);

With this code, the my_uarte_event_handler is never called. I've checked that the pin assignment is correct in the board file, and I've disabled flow control

Hi,

Can you post the code you used for configuring UARTE, and setting up the transfers? I'm not sure what the purpose of the function nrfx_uarte_rx_ready() is in the driver, to me it seems that using this function only makes sense to use together with nrfx_uart_rx_enable() in the legacy UART driver for polling UART.

Best regards,
Jørgen
