Hi,

thanks a lot for the info about the example, I manage to find it, and at the moment, merging it with my code, the uart is sending up to 16 bytes in interrupt, but after the 16th, no more data is transmitted, probably it is depending on enabling fifo on the FIFO Control Register.
I'll try to use the example, I'll post as soon as I have any news.

Thanks again.
