UART in PIC24 Project not working properly

Posted by *anonymous on January 13, 2012

I am playing around with the PIC24 FreeRTOS project (V7.1.0) on the Explorer16 development board and I'm having problems with the UART driver included in the demo. It is not transmitting the right characters to the hyperterminal. I have gone as far as gutting the entire project and all that is left is a task that transmits a single character and transmission seems to be garbled. I've run the project on different verified hardware but I am still having the same consistent issue.

Has anyone else had similar issues with the UART? If so, how was it rectified?

Thank you!

Is it just a baud rate problem. Does the chip you are running have the same clock assumed in the baud rate calculation?

Yes, you are right. I took a closer look at my baud rate calculations and noticed that my oscillator configurations were slightly off. I changed them and it seems to be working fine now.

Thank you!
