3.4 UART/RS-232 Connectors
This section describes the DB9 RS-232 serial interface connectors on the ADS. Each serial interface is
controlled by a UART that is either inside the i.MX21 processor or part of an external device.
3.4.1 UART1 Connector
Connector P1 connects to the UART1 pins of the i.MX21 MCU. UART1 is the primary functionality of
the pins. This female DB9 connector is configured for RS-232 DCE operation. Figure 3-5 shows pin
assignments and Table 3-5 provides signal descriptions for the connector.
