It is recommended to use UART1 as a debug port.
NOTE
The FRWY-LS1046A supports following UART features:
• UART1 is routed to CP2102N USB-UART bridge and supports micro-USB port to access the serial port as console. This
connection requires placing a jumper on header J72.
• UART1 can be used without flow control on expansion header J73 (3.3 V). This connection requires removing the jumper
from header J72.
• UART3 signals can be used to communicate with click board plugged-in into mikroBUS socket
• UART2 can be used with/without flow control on expansion header J60 (3.3 V). A remote UART connection can be made
from the expansion header using an FTDI standard 3.3 V cable (TTL-232R-3V3) or by connecting to an RS-232/RS-485/
RS-422 expansion card.
• UART4 can be used on expansion header J60 (3.3 V)
The table below shows pinout details of UART expansion header J73.
