• I2C and SPI objects have setup(options), unsetup() and ._options property so one can find out current state.

    Serial class has baudrate as extra parameter and no _options after setup. I'd like to close console/UART to save power and reopen it later with same options but don't know how to do it as I cannot determine whether serial is already open and what are current parameters.

    This is on nrf52 and my idea is to unsetup Serial1 and reconfigure RX pin as gpio with setWatch() and setup serial again when the watch triggers (rx goes high). BTW, will this actually save power? why the uart eats power anyway - because of TX? In that case can I just unconfigure TX pin when not sending directly in UART driver?
