For the demonstration described in Section 4, the UART on the TM4C129x microcontroller has to communicate with the PC over COM port. To achieve this, the UART signals should be level shifted to RS-232 level. The EK-TM4C1294XL and DK-TM4C129XL boards don’t have a level shifter. A schematic for level shifting is shown in Section 7.1. Only one UART port with hardware flow control can be used with this schematic. Section 7.2 lists the jumper settings and the necessary connections from EK-TM4C1294XL or DK-TM4C129XL.
