#126643 - UART start bit detection?
I have an application where it might be advantageous to detect the start bit of a UART transmission in certain cases.

Can I just poll the appropriate port pin P3.0/Rx, even while the UART is enabled ? The MCU does not need to do anything else while in this state, so busy waiting is not a problem.

Or do I need to turn off the UART first before polling the pin ?

Or would it be a better solution to connect P3.0/Rx to another free GPIO pin and poll it instead ?
