Use case: IRDA transmit in interrupt mode

This use case shows how to transmit IRDA data in interrupt mode. In HAL2, IRDA support is handled via the HAL UART driver.

Code snippet

HAL1

HAL2 

#define DATA_TO_SEND_SIZE           256

uint8_t aTxBuffer[DATA_TO_SEND_SIZE] = " **** IRDA Communication **** ";

IRDA_HandleTypeDef hirda;

/* Optional: register transmit-complete callback */
HAL_IRDA_RegisterCallback(&hirda, HAL_IRDA_TX_CB_ID, IRDA_TxCpltCallback);

/* Start transmit in interrupt mode */
(void)HAL_IRDA_Transmit_IT(&hirda, aTxBuffer, DATA_TO_SEND_SIZE);

#define DATA_TO_SEND_SIZE           256

uint8_t aTxBuffer[DATA_TO_SEND_SIZE] = " **** IRDA Communication **** ";

hal_uart_handle_t huart;

/* Optional: register transmit-complete callback */
HAL_UART_RegisterTxCpltCallback(&huart, UART_TxCpltCallback);

/* Start transmit in interrupt mode */
(void)HAL_UART_Transmit_IT(&huart, aTxBuffer, DATA_TO_SEND_SIZE);

Key changes

  1. HAL2 uses the UART driver (HAL_UART_Transmit_IT() + HAL_UART_IRQHandler()) instead of IRDA-specific APIs.
