For an STM32F427 / STM32F429 MCU is UART supported with 0.5 Stop Bit and DMA enabled configuration???

I am using an STM32F429FI Nucleo board, and not able to communicate over UART with the confiiguration having 0.5 Stop bits and DMA being enabled.

Is this a valid configuration? Data sheet suggests use of 0.5 Stop bits with SmartCard mode does it mean it is not supported for regular mode of UART communication

DMA gets request from peripheral to read/write data bytes. The stop bits are not involved.

Beware smartcard needs USART and not UART. Find a working example to look at the HW registers setting in debug mode and compare.

General rule is that if it works in polled mode it can also be done with DMA.

Doesn't work how? Can out output a pattern, and does it look correct on scope or analyzer? If not show or describe how it is wrong..​
