ST32F302RC USART with parity not working

Hello,

I am working on STM32F302RC. I want to use the USART1 with parity enabled both odd/even which is configurable through command.

I am using

USART1

with

baudrate 115200,

data length8 bit ,  parity none with this configuration it works fine. 

stop bit   1,

When I change the configuration of

USART1

to odd or even parity it doesn't work I get junk character on serial termina  as shown below.

sƒß2ØL<DC3> ›'š­ÚšQM¸·»'¹bé·-Hl?S<RS> <DC2> å¹7™JC1<SUB> œî<SO> ƒÃé4 ]\V<SYN> åßóöX-<ETX> ‚, Ø-Hl<HT> <HT> c<STX> �?<CR>

What could be the issue? Kindly suggest.

Thank you.

You need to change the settings of your serial terminal as well.

Thank you for the reply.

I have changed the setting on serial terminal. If you check on analyzer the terminal is transmitting proper frames when seen on analyzer.

Fig.1. Transmitted from desktop to STM32F302RC controller.

Fig.2. Transmitted from STM32F302RC  to desktop.

Bit level I cannot not check,

But the frames sent from STM32 is not correct. Frames sent from Hyper terminal are correct. Frames sent from STM32 shows parity error on Analyzer. The frames from Desktop terminal are shown correct on analyzer.Analyzer used is Salae logic analyzer.

I am using sp32328. But the frames captured are on the ttl level side.

If you check on analyzer the terminal is transmitting proper frames when seen on analyzer. 

'Analyzer' is a quite generic term.

Have you verified (on bit level) that the byte frames sent by the STM32 are correct, i.e. data bits, parity bit, stop bits, frame length ?

If yes, you have a problem with the other side.

OK.

Can we see a capture with longer spaces (delays)  between the transmitted characters, so that we can unambiguously see which one is the startbit?

I am transmitting '@' every 2 sec as shown below without parity.

fig.1.

fig.2 expanded wave form of each byte.

Below is the wave form with even parity setting:

fig.4. expanded wave form of bytes with even parity

seen on desktop terminal in ascii format  ''Â�À''

In hex format as ''C0''

What kind of level converter (like MAX232) do you have connected to the STM32?
