Overview
Le Carte Click UART MUX 2™ est une carte complémentaire compacte qui permet une transmission RS232 pseudo-multipoint. Cette carte comprend le MAX399, un multiplexeur analogique CMOS précis qui permet à quatre émetteurs-récepteurs RS-232 distants de partager un seul UART de Maxim Integrated. Il offre des vitesses de commutation rapides avec un temps de transition inférieur à 250 ns et une faible résistance à l'état passant inférieure à 100 Ω tout en conservant la compatibilité d'entrée logique CMOS et une commutation rapide. La sélection des canaux s'effectue via un ensemble de broches GPIO spécifiques et possède des fonctionnalités supplémentaires telles que la fonction ON/OFF manuelle. Cette Click Board™ convient à diverses applications, de l'industrie et de l'instrumentation aux systèmes grand public, de communication, d'acquisition de données et bien d'autres encore.
Le clic UART MUX 2 est pris en charge par une bibliothèque compatible mikroSDK, qui comprend des fonctions qui simplifient le développement logiciel. Cette Click Board™ est un produit entièrement testé, prêt à être utilisé sur un système équipé du socket mikroBUS™.

How Does The UART MUX 2 Click Board™ Work?
The UART MUX 2 Click Board™ as its foundation uses the MAX399, a precise CMOS analogue multiplexer that enables pseudo-multidrop RS232 transmission from Maxim Integrated. This multiplexer allows multiple channels, in this case, four, to share a single UART interface. It offers fast switching speeds with a transition time of less than 250ns and low on-resistance of less than 100Ω while retains CMOS-logic input compatibility and fast switching.
The dual four-to-one multiplexer permits transceiver MAX3221 to form a network with the four remote transceivers connected to terminals labelled as UART0-UART3 located in the upper part of the Click board™. The circuit's supply-voltage range (3V to 5.5V) makes it compatible with 3V and 5V logic. MAX399 receives its power directly from the power terminals of MAX3221, whose ±5.5V outputs come from an internal charge pump. The multiplexer handles rail-to-rail signals, so obtaining its power from MAX3221 ensures that RS232 signals pass directly through, regardless of amplitude.
The UART MUX 2 Click Board™ communicates with MCU through MAX3221 using the UART interface for the data transfer. The MAX3221 can run at data rates up to 250 kbps while maintaining RS232-compliant output levels. Channel selection is performed through a set of specific GPIO pins, labeled as A0 and A1 routed on the CS and RST pins of the mikroBUS™ socket. Selecting its channel 1, for instance, enables MAX3221 to communicate with UART0 without being loaded by UART1 to UART3. Pulldown resistors inside the remote transceivers force the outputs of un-selected receivers to a known state.
In addition to a channel selection, this Click board™ also has an automatic power-down feature that can be disabled when ON and OFF pins are high, routed on the PWM and AN pins of the mikroBUS™ socket. Also, it uses the interrupt pin of the mikroBUS™ labelled as INV as an invalid indicator which makes interfacing with the RS232 simple and easy, indicating whether a valid RS232 signal is present not.
The UART MUX 2 Click Board™ can operate with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VCC SEL jumper. This way, it is allowed for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to properly use the UART communication lines. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
