nRF52832 UART to UART bridge

[Santhoj]

Hi Team,

I need to make an application that we receive a data from a chip through UART and need to send the data to Console through another UART. Is it possible to make in this chipset? I could see there is one UART and one UARTE. Are we able to use both for this application?

Thanks, Santhoj.

It is possible, but you cannot use UART and UARTE at the same time. They share the same peripheral registers so one has to be disabled while the other is in use. You could use the UART peripheral for both interfaces and switch between the two uses as needed. There are instructions in section 15.2 of the nRF52832 PS for switching between peripherals that share the same ID. You could do the same to switch between instances of UART usages and get the same result.
