Hello everybody,
I'm new here and I'm trying to figure out how to deal with a simple project that I made, what consists in acquire data from a microphone using an evaluation board (TIVA TM4C1294XL from Texas Instruments) and show this using UART. I'm currently using TeraTerm to see the data coming through the device, However, I'd like to know if I can use MATLAB as a "TeraTerm", what I mean, store data in Matlab directly from UART so then I could process it (generate graphs and other stuff)
Thank you!

Create a serial object. Configure its properties. fopen() it.
Appropriate properties for this situation would be to set BytesAvailableFncMode to bytes, BytesAvailableFcnCount to 1, Baud as appropriate, Terminator to '' (empty), and BytesAvailableFcn to the handle of a callback function to act upon each received byte. You might also need to configure InputBufferSize
