Hi,

I use STM32 vl-discovery in my project. I've connected and configured USART1 + DMA1 with informations and code from this forum. Application almost works, but all data in DMA memory receive buffer are garbage (when i disconnect the buffer fills with zeros). External device connected to PC works correctly. Device communication parameters are 9600 8n1 

// power RCC

RCC_AHBPeriphClockCmd(RCC_AHBPeriph_DMA1, ENABLE);
RCC_APB2PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB2Periph_GPIOA, ENABLE);
RCC_APB2PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB2Periph_USART1, ENABLE);
// interrupts configuration

NVIC_PriorityGroupConfig(NVIC_PriorityGroup_2);

NVIC_InitStructure.NVIC_IRQChannelSubPriority = 0;
NVIC_InitStructure.NVIC_IRQChannelCmd = ENABLE;
NVIC_Init(&NVIC_InitStructure);

NVIC_InitStructure.NVIC_IRQChannel = DMA1_Channel5_IRQn;

DMA_InitStructure.DMA_PeripheralDataSize = DMA_PeripheralDataSize_Byte;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_MemoryDataSize = DMA_MemoryDataSize_Byte;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_Mode = DMA_Mode_Circular;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_Priority = DMA_Priority_Low;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_M2M = DMA_M2M_Disable;
DMA_Init(DMA1_Channel5, &DMA_InitStructure);
DMA_ITConfig(DMA1_Channel5, DMA_IT_TC | DMA_IT_HT, ENABLE);
DMA_Cmd(DMA1_Channel5, ENABLE);
USART_DMACmd(USART1, USART_DMAReq_Rx, ENABLE);
USART_Cmd(USART1, ENABLE);
Interrupt handler:
void
DMA1_Channel5_IRQHandler(
void
) {
if
(DMA_GetITStatus(DMA1_IT_TC5) == SET) {
DMA_ClearITPendingBit(DMA1_IT_TC5);
} 
else
if
(DMA_GetITStatus(DMA1_IT_HT5) == SET) {
DMA_ClearITPendingBit(DMA1_IT_HT5);
}
}

What can be wrong? Why DMA fills buffer with 0 when device is disconnected? Connected device sends information 1/second. Does the DMA fill buffer with 0 if there will be no data to receive?

One more information: first time i connected pins rx tx incorrectly (pins were swaped).

Where is edit option?

Missing the defines and definitions here... probably salient

What exacly is missing?

Applications works exactly in the same way when i use UART2 without DMA: 

int i = 0;
while (1) {
while (USART_GetFlagStatus(USART2, USART_FLAG_RXNE) == RESET);
DMA_GPS_IN_BUFFER[i++] = USART_ReceiveData(USART2) & 0xFF;
if (i >= GPS_IN_BUFFER_SIZE) {
i = 0;
}
}
// Init:
// power RCC
RCC_APB2PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB2Periph_AFIO, ENABLE);
RCC_AHBPeriphClockCmd(RCC_AHBPeriph_DMA1, ENABLE);
RCC_APB2PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB2Periph_GPIOA, ENABLE);
RCC_APB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB1Periph_USART2, ENABLE);
USART_ClockInitTypeDef USART_ClockInitStructure;
USART_ClockStructInit(&USART_ClockInitStructure);
USART_ClockInit(USART2, &USART_ClockInitStructure);
// GPIO Configuration TX = PA.09 , RX = PA.10
// TX
GPIO_InitTypeDef GPIO_InitStructure;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Pin = GPIO_Pin_2;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Mode = GPIO_Mode_AF_PP;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Speed = GPIO_Speed_2MHz;
GPIO_Init(GPIOA, &GPIO_InitStructure);
// RX
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Pin = GPIO_Pin_3;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Mode = GPIO_Mode_IN_FLOATING;
GPIO_Init(GPIOA, &GPIO_InitStructure);
// USART
USART_DeInit(USART2);
USART_InitTypeDef USART_InitStructure;
USART_InitStructure.USART_BaudRate = 9600;
USART_InitStructure.USART_WordLength = USART_WordLength_8b;
USART_InitStructure.USART_StopBits = USART_StopBits_1;
USART_InitStructure.USART_Parity = USART_Parity_No;
USART_InitStructure.USART_HardwareFlowControl =
USART_HardwareFlowControl_None;
USART_InitStructure.USART_Mode = USART_Mode_Rx | USART_Mode_Tx;
USART_Init(USART2, &USART_InitStructure);

Debugging shown that very oftenUSART_FLAG_FE is set. What can cause this?

Really? How long have you been doing C programming? ''defines and definitions''

ie The variables and other crap you didn't bother to cut-n-paste, and would allow someone other than you to analyze and compile your exemplar.

That all i think is needed. Board is STM32 VL-Discovery. After all have 2 ideas: - clock problems, - transmission voltage????
