# COMMCTRL Master
# UART AHB Master (COMMCTRL)
## Introduction
COMMCTRL is intended to control and communicate with the SoC using UART or Scan Chain
It works as a Master module attached to AHB-Lite bus system in SoC.
COMMCTRL is an AHB bus master that allows for straightforward off-chip hosting over a simple USB interface. This makes test chip bring up and testing extremely quick and easy!
The off-chip hosting uses the standard UART protocol and therefore requires nothing more complicated than a simple terminal app for interactive tests. For scripted tests, any UART library can be used, e.g. `pyserial` in a Python script.
