Usually the delay for RS485 is done in bit times, not msec. Not sure
how you expect this to work. Not sure doing it in software is precise
enough either. It probably should be calculated based on the current
baudrate with a bit time rather than msec in the DT data. No one wants
to have to change the DT data to change the baud rate. After all this
is very often used with modbus and the modbus rules specify turn around
times in bit times.
I hope TI puts this into the UART in future designs where it belongs
(similar to what Exar and many others already did).
