Compared to the other variants (e.g. with the multiplies, except for the
table lookup) you already save a lot of cycles - although I guess they
would be sufficiently fast anyway, considering the typical uart

It might be good to compile with -Cparmv6 (or -Cparmv7, do not know what
type the processor you use is), this generates a "better" return

already.
Wouldn't it be possible to do

Hi,
I've been looking a bit further at this.
I disassembled the code and this is the result :
8000150: e6ff0f30

You might also look into the RBIT instruction which does this in one cpu
cycle. See

d.html and applied to the STM32 USART
