-//! UART loopback test
-//!
-//! Folowing pins are used:
-//! TX    GPIO5
-//! RX    GPIO6
-//!
-//! Depending on your target and the board you are using you have to change the pins.
-//!
-//! This example transfers data via UART.
-//! Connect TX and RX pins to see the outgoing data is read as incoming data.
