Introduction Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter or UART is a vital communication protocol used for serial communication in embedded systems and microcontrollers. The Raspberry Pi includes a UART controller that provides serial communication capabilities through its GPIO pins. This allows the Pi to interface with various external serial devices. Python offers a simple yet powerful way to […]

Significance of UART in embedded Linux development Linux porting is a difficult task. We can’t simply boot a Linux board by building u-boot, kernel, and root file system images. This type of approach never works. It will end up with several issues like kernel panics, device driver issues, device tree issues, bootloader issues, etc… So
