  one_paragraph_desc: '''
  Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) provides industry standard serial communication with external devices via two wires at a programmable baud rate.
  Its full duplex design supports simultaneous transmission and reception, and flow control may be achieved using software handshaking if required.
  To reduce software load, UART includes hardware FIFOs and supports interrupt generation when the FIFO level reaches software-programmable thresholds.
  For compatibility with a variety of different targets and applications, the baud rate is software programmable and bit rates of up to 1 Mbit/s are supported.
  The data format is restricted to 8 bits, reducing the complexity and cost, with optional parity for robustness against transmission errors.
