The BM78 UART pins TXD and RXD connect to the UART pins of the host MCU. It is highly
recommended to use hardware flow control pins RTS and CTS. The BM78 hardware flow control is
disabled by default and must be configured to enable. The UART Baud is configurable. The
available signal rates are listed in Table 10‐1.
