Product data sheet
1. General description
The SC16C554B/554DB is a 4-channel Universal Asynchronous Receiver and
Transmitter (QUART) used for serial data communications. Its principal function is to
convert parallel data into serial data and vice versa. The UART can handle serial data
rates up to 5 Mbit/s. It comes with an Intel® or Motorola® interface.
The SC16C554B/554DB is pin compatible with the ST16C554 and TL16C554 and it will
power-up to be functionally equivalent to the 16C454. Programming of control registers
enables the added features of the SC16C554B/554DB. Some of these added features are
the 16-byte receive and transmit FIFOs, four receive trigger levels. The
SC16C554B/554DB also provides DMA mode data transfers through FIFO trigger levels
and the TXRDY and RXRDY signals. On-board status registers provide the user with error
indications, operational status, and modem interface control. System interrupts may be
tailored to meet user requirements. An internal loop-back capability allows on-board
diagnostics.
The SC16C554B/554DB operates at 5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V, and the industrial temperature
range, and is available in plastic PLCC68, LQFP64, and LQFP80 packages.

16/68 Interface type select (input with internal pull-up). This
input provides the 16 (Intel) or 68 (Motorola) bus interface type
select. The functions of IOR, IOW, INTA to INTD, and CSA to CSD
are re-assigned with the logical state of this pin. When this pin is a
logic 1, the 16 mode interface (16C554) is selected. When this pin
is a logic 0, the 68 mode interface (68C554) is selected. When this
pin is a logic 0, IOW is re-assigned to R/W, RESET is re-assigned
to RESET, IOR is not used, and INTA to INTD are connected in a
wire-OR configuration. The wire-OR outputs are connected
internally to the open drain IRQ signal output. This pin is not
available on 64-pin packages which operate in the 16 mode only.

Interrupt Select (active HIGH, with internal pull-down). This
function is associated with the 16 mode only. When the 16 mode is
selected, this pin can be used in conjunction with MCR[3] to enable
or disable the 3-state interrupts, INTA to INTD, or override MCR[3]
and force continuous interrupts. Interrupt outputs are enabled
continuously by making this pin a logic 1. Making this pin a logic 0
allows MCR[3] to control the 3-state interrupt output. In this mode,
MCR[3] is set to a logic 1 to enable the 3-state outputs. This pin is
disabled in the 68 mode. Due to pin limitations on the 64-pin
packages, this pin is not available. To cover this limitation, the
SC16C554DBIB64 version operates in the continuous interrupt
enable mode by bonding this pin to VCC internally. The
SC16C554BIB64 operates with MCR[3] control by bonding this pin
to GND.

SC16C554B/554DB
Philips Semiconductors
5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 16-byte FIFOs
6. Functional description
The SC16C554B/554DB provides serial asynchronous receive data synchronization,
parallel-to-serial and serial-to-parallel data conversions for both the transmitter and
receiver sections. These functions are necessary for converting the serial data stream into
parallel data that is required with digital data systems. Synchronization for the serial data
stream is accomplished by adding start and stop bits to the transmit data to form a data
character. Data integrity is insured by attaching a parity bit to the data character. The
parity bit is checked by the receiver for any transmission bit errors. The electronic circuitry
to provide all these functions is fairly complex, especially when manufactured on a single
integrated silicon chip. The SC16C554B/554DB represents such an integration with
greatly enhanced features. The SC16C554B/554DB is fabricated with an advanced
CMOS process to achieve low drain power and high speed requirements.
The SC16C554B/554DB is an upward solution that provides 16 bytes of transmit and
receive FIFO memory, instead of none in the 16C454. The SC16C554B/554DB is
designed to work with high speed modems and shared network environments that require
fast data processing time. Increased performance is realized in the SC16C554B/554DB
by the larger transmit and receive FIFOs. This allows the external processor to handle
more networking tasks within a given time. In addition, the four selectable levels of FIFO
trigger interrupt is uniquely provided for maximum data throughput performance,
especially when operating in a multi-channel environment. The combination of the above
greatly reduces the bandwidth requirement of the external controlling CPU, increases
performance, and reduces power consumption.
The SC16C554B/554DBAI68 combines the package interface modes of the 16C454/554
and 68C454/554 series on a single integrated chip. The 16 mode interface is designed to
operate with the Intel-type of microprocessor bus, while the 68 mode is intended to
operate with Motorola and other popular microprocessors. Following a reset, the
SC16C554B/554DBAI68 is downward compatible with the 16C454/554 or the
68C454/554, dependent on the state of the interface mode selection pin, 16/68.
The SC16C554B/554DB is capable of operation to 1.5 Mbit/s with a 24 MHz crystal and
up to 5 Mbit/s with an external clock input (at 3.3 V and 5 V; at 2.5 V the maximum speed
is 3 Mbit/s).
The rich feature set of the SC16C554B/554DB is available through internal registers.
Selectable receive FIFO trigger levels, selectable TX and RX baud rates, and modem
interface controls are all standard features. In the 16 mode, INTSEL and MCR[3] can be
configured to provide a software controlled or continuous interrupt capability. Due to pin
limitations of the 64-pin package, this feature is offered by two different LQFP64
packages. The SC16C554DB operates in the continuous interrupt enable mode by
bonding INTSEL to VCC internally. The SC16C554B operates in conjunction with MCR[3]
by bonding INTSEL to GND internally.

5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 16-byte FIFOs
6.1 Interface options
Two user interface modes are selectable for the PLCC68 package. These interface modes
are designated as the ‘16 mode’ and the ‘68 mode’. This nomenclature corresponds to the
early 16C454/554 and 68C454/554 package interfaces respectively.
6.1.1 The 16 mode interface
The 16 mode configures the package interface pins for connection as a standard
16 series (Intel) device and operates similar to the standard CPU interface available on
the 16C454/554. In the 16 mode (pin 16/68 = logic 1), each UART is selected with
individual chip select (CSx) pins, as shown in Table 3.

6.1.2 The 68 mode interface
The 68 mode configures the package interface pins for connection with Motorola, and
other popular microprocessor bus types. The interface operates similar to the
68C454/554. In this mode, the SC16C554B/554DB decodes two additional addresses,
A3 to A4, to select one of the four UART ports. The A3 to A4 address decode function is
used only when in the 68 mode (16/68 = logic 0), and is shown in Table 4.

6.2 Internal registers
The SC16C554B/554DB provides 12 internal registers for monitoring and control. These
registers are shown in Table 5. These registers function as data holding registers
(THR/RHR), interrupt status and control registers (IER/ISR), a FIFO control register
(FCR), line status and control registers (LCR/LSR), modem status and control registers
(MCR/MSR), programmable data rate (clock) control registers (DLL/DLM), and a user
accessible scratchpad register (SPR). Register functions are more fully described in the
following paragraphs.

6.3 FIFO operation
The 16 byte transmit and receive data FIFOs are enabled by the FIFO Control Register
(FCR) bit 0. With SC16C554B devices, the user can set the receive trigger level, but not
the transmit trigger level. The receiver FIFO section includes a time-out function to ensure
data is delivered to the external CPU. An interrupt is generated whenever the Receive
Holding Register (RHR) has not been read following the loading of a character or the
receive trigger level has not been reached.

5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 16-byte FIFOs
6.4 Autoflow control (see Figure 7)
Autoflow control is comprised of auto-CTS and auto-RTS. With auto-CTS, the CTS input
must be active before the transmitter FIFO can emit data. With auto-RTS, RTS becomes
active when the receiver needs more data and notifies the sending serial device. When
RTS is connected to CTS, data transmission does not occur unless the receiver FIFO has
space for the data; thus, overrun errors are eliminated using UART 1 and UART 2 from a
SC16C554B/554DB with the autoflow control enabled. If not, overrun errors occur when
the transmit data rate exceeds the receiver FIFO read latency.

Fig 7. Autoflow control (auto-RTS and auto-CTS) example
6.4.1 Auto-RTS (see Figure 7)
Auto-RTS data flow control originates in the receiver timing and control block (see block
diagrams in Figure 1 and Figure 2) and is linked to the programmed receiver FIFO trigger
level. When the receiver FIFO level reaches a trigger level of 1, 4, or 8 (see Figure 9), RTS
is de-asserted. With trigger levels of 1, 4, and 8, the sending UART may send an
additional byte after the trigger level is reached (assuming the sending UART has another
byte to send) because it may not recognize the de-assertion of RTS until after it has
begun sending the additional byte. RTS is automatically reasserted once the RX FIFO is
emptied by reading the receiver buffer register. When the trigger level is 14 (see
Figure 10), RTS is de-asserted after the first data bit of the 16th character is present on
the RX line. RTS is reasserted when the RX FIFO has at least one available byte space.
6.4.2 Auto-CTS (see Figure 7)
The transmitter circuitry checks CTS before sending the next data byte. When CTS is
active, it sends the next byte. To stop the transmitter from sending the following byte, CTS
must be released before the middle of the last stop bit that is currently being sent (see
Figure 8). The auto-CTS function reduces interrupts to the host system. When flow control
is enabled, CTS level changes do not trigger host interrupts because the device
automatically controls its own transmitter. Without auto-CTS, the transmitter sends any
data present in the transmit FIFO and a receiver overrun error may result.

more than one byte of space available.
(3) When the receive FIFO is full, the first receive buffer register read re-asserts RTS.
Fig 10. RTS functional timing waveforms, RCV FIFO trigger level = 14 bytes
6.5 Hardware/software and time-out interrupts
Following a reset, if the transmitter interrupt is enabled, the SC16C554B/554DB will issue
an interrupt to indicate that the Transmit Holding Register is empty. This interrupt must be
serviced prior to continuing operations. The LSR register provides the current singular
highest priority interrupt only. Only after servicing the higher pending interrupt will the
lower priority interrupt(s) be reflected in the status register. Servicing the interrupt without
investigating further interrupt conditions can result in data errors.
When two interrupt conditions have the same priority, it is important to service these
interrupts correctly. Receive Data Ready and Receive Time Out have the same interrupt
priority (when enabled by IER[0]). The receiver issues an interrupt after the number of
characters have reached the programmed trigger level. In this case, the
SC16C554B/554DB FIFO may hold more characters than the programmed trigger level.
Following the removal of a data byte, the user should re-check LSR[0] for additional
characters. A Receive Time Out will not occur if the receive FIFO is empty. The time-out
counter is reset at the center of each stop bit received or each time the receive holding
register (RHR) is read. The actual time-out value is 4 character time.
In the 16 mode for the PLCC68 package, the system/board designer can optionally
provide software controlled 3-state interrupt operation. This is accomplished by INTSEL
and MCR[3]. When INTSEL interface pin is left open or made a logic 0, MCR[3] controls
the 3-state interrupt outputs, INTA to INTD. When INTSEL is a logic 1, MCR[3] has no
effect on the INTA to INTD outputs, and the package operates with interrupt outputs
enabled continuously.
6.6 Programmable baud rate generator
The SC16C554B/554DB supports high speed modem technologies that have increased
input data rates by employing data compression schemes. For example, a 33.6 kbit/s
modem that employs data compression may require a 115.2 kbit/s input data rate.
A 128.0 kbit/s ISDN modem that supports data compression may need an input data rate
of 460.8 kbit/s.

5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 16-byte FIFOs
A single baud rate generator is provided for the transmitter and receiver, allowing
independent TX/RX channel control. The programmable Baud Rate Generator is capable
of accepting an input clock up to 80 MHz (for 3.3 V and 5 V operation), as required for
supporting a 5 Mbit/s data rate. The SC16C554B/554DB can be configured for internal or
external clock operation. For internal clock oscillator operation, an industry standard
microprocessor crystal (parallel resonant/22 pF to 33 pF load) is connected externally
between the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins (see Figure 11). Alternatively, an external clock can
be connected to the XTAL1 pin to clock the internal baud rate generator for standard or
custom rates (see Table 8).

SC16C554B/554DB
Philips Semiconductors
5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 16-byte FIFOs
6.7 DMA operation
The SC16C554B/554DB FIFO trigger level provides additional flexibility to the user for
block mode operation. LSR[5:6] provide an indication when the transmitter is empty or has
an empty location(s). The user can optionally operate the transmit and receive FIFOs in
the DMA mode (FCR[3]). When the transmit and receive FIFOs are enabled and the DMA
mode is de-activated (DMA Mode 0), the SC16C554B/554DB activates the interrupt
output pin for each data transmit or receive operation. When DMA mode is activated
(DMA Mode 1), the user takes the advantage of block mode operation by loading or
unloading the FIFO in a block sequence determined by the preset trigger level. In this
mode, the SC16C554B/554DB sets the interrupt output pin when the characters in the
receive FIFOs are above the receive trigger level.
6.8 Loop-back mode
The internal loop-back capability allows on-board diagnostics. In the loop-back mode, the
normal modem interface pins are disconnected and reconfigured for loop-back internally.
MCR[0:3] register bits are used for controlling loop-back diagnostic testing. In the
loop-back mode, OP1 and OP2 in the MCR register (bits 2:3) control the modem RI and
CD inputs, respectively. MCR signals DTR and RTS (bits 0:1) are used to control the
modem DSR and CTS inputs, respectively. The transmitter output (TX) and the receiver
input (RX) are disconnected from their associated interface pins, and instead are
connected together internally (see Figure 12). The CTS, DSR, CD, and RI are
disconnected from their normal modem control input pins, and instead are connected
internally to RTS, DTR, OP2 and OP1. Loop-back test data is entered into the transmit
holding register via the user data bus interface, D0 to D7. The transmit UART serializes
the data and passes the serial data to the receive UART via the internal loop-back
connection. The receive UART converts the serial data back into parallel data that is then
made available at the user data interface D0 to D7. The user optionally compares the
received data to the initial transmitted data for verifying error-free operation of the UART
TX/RX circuits.
In this mode, the receiver and transmitter interrupts are fully operational. The Modem
Control Interrupts are also operational. However, the interrupts can only be read using
lower four bits of the Modem Status Register (MSR[0:3]) instead of the four Modem Status
Register bits 4:7. The interrupts are still controlled by the IER.

SC16C554B/554DB
Philips Semiconductors
5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 16-byte FIFOs
7.1 Transmit (THR) and Receive (RHR) Holding Registers
The serial transmitter section consists of an 8-bit Transmit Hold Register (THR) and
Transmit Shift Register (TSR). The status of the THR is provided in the Line Status
Register (LSR). Writing to the THR transfers the contents of the data bus (D7 to D0) to the
THR, providing that the THR or TSR is empty. The THR empty flag in the LSR register will
be set to a logic 1 when the transmitter is empty or when data is transferred to the TSR.
Note that a write operation can be performed when the THR empty flag is set
(logic 0 = FIFO full; logic 1 = at least one FIFO location available).
The serial receive section also contains an 8-bit Receive Holding Register (RHR).
Receive data is removed from the SC16C554B/554DB and receive FIFO by reading the
RHR register. The receive section provides a mechanism to prevent false starts. On the
falling edge of a start or false start bit, an internal receiver counter starts counting clocks
at the 16× clock rate. After 71⁄2 clocks, the start bit time should be shifted to the center of
the start bit. At this time the start bit is sampled, and if it is still a logic 0 it is validated.
Evaluating the start bit in this manner prevents the receiver from assembling a false
character. Receiver status codes will be posted in the LSR.
7.2 Interrupt Enable Register (IER)
The Interrupt Enable Register (IER) masks the interrupts from receiver ready, transmitter
empty, line status and modem status registers. These interrupts would normally be seen
on the INTA to INTD output pins in the 16 mode, or on wire-OR IRQ output pin in the
68 mode.

Philips Semiconductors
5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 16-byte FIFOs
7.2.1 IER versus Receive FIFO interrupt mode operation
When the receive FIFO (FCR[0] = logic 1), and receive interrupts (IER[0] = logic 1) are
enabled, the receive interrupts and register status will reflect the following:
• The receive data available interrupts are issued to the external CPU when the FIFO
has reached the programmed trigger level. It will be cleared when the FIFO drops
below the programmed trigger level.
• FIFO status will also be reflected in the user accessible ISR register when the FIFO
trigger level is reached. Both the ISR register status bit and the interrupt will be
cleared when the FIFO drops below the trigger level.
• The data ready bit (LSR[0]) is set as soon as a character is transferred from the shift
register to the receive FIFO. It is reset when the FIFO is empty.
7.2.2 IER versus Receive/Transmit FIFO polled mode operation
When FCR[0] = logic 1, resetting IER[0:3] enables the SC16C554B/554DB in the FIFO
polled mode of operation. Since the receiver and transmitter have separate bits in the
LSR, either or both can be used in the polled mode by selecting respective transmit or
receive control bit(s).
•
•
•
•
•
LSR[0] will be a logic 1 as long as there is one byte in the receive FIFO.
LSR[1:4] will provide the type of errors encountered, if any.
LSR[5] will indicate when the transmit FIFO is empty.
LSR[6] will indicate when both the transmit FIFO and transmit shift register are empty.
LSR[7] will indicate any FIFO data errors.
7.3 FIFO Control Register (FCR)
This register is used to enable the FIFOs, clear the FIFOs, set the receive FIFO trigger
levels, and select the DMA mode.
7.3.1 DMA mode
7.3.1.1
Mode 0 (FCR bit 3 = 0)
Set and enable the interrupt for each single transmit or receive operation, and is similar to
the 16C454 mode. Transmit Ready (TXRDY) will go to a logic 0 whenever an empty
transmit space is available in the Transmit Holding Register (THR). Receive Ready
(RXRDY) will go to a logic 0 whenever the Receive Holding Register (RHR) is loaded with
a character.
7.3.1.2
Mode 1 (FCR bit 3 = 1)
Set and enable the interrupt in a block mode operation. The transmit interrupt is set when
there are one or more FIFO locations empty. The receive interrupt is set when the receive
FIFO fills to the programmed trigger level. However, the FIFO continues to fill regardless
of the programmed level until the FIFO is full. RXRDY remains a logic 0 as long as the
FIFO fill level is above the programmed trigger level.

(FIFOs enabled; FCR[0] = logic 1; FCR[3] = logic 0), and when there are no
characters in the transmit FIFO or transmit holding register, the TXRDY pin
will be a logic 0. Once active, the TXRDY pin will go to a logic 1 after the first

7.4 Interrupt Status Register (ISR)
The SC16C554B/554DB provides four levels of prioritized interrupts to minimize external
software interaction. The Interrupt Status Register (ISR) provides the user with four
interrupt status bits. Performing a read cycle on the ISR will provide the user with the
highest pending interrupt level to be serviced. No other interrupts are acknowledged until
the pending interrupt is serviced. Whenever the interrupt status register is read, the
interrupt status is cleared. However, it should be noted that only the current pending
interrupt is cleared by the read. A lower level interrupt may be seen after re-reading the
interrupt status bits. Table 13 “Interrupt source” shows the data values (bits 0 to 5) for the
four prioritized interrupt levels and the interrupt sources associated with each of these
interrupt levels.

Enhance Feature mode enable.
Logic 0 = Divisor latch disabled (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = Divisor latch enabled.
6
LCR[6]
Set break. When enabled, the Break control bit causes a break
condition to be transmitted (the TX output is forced to a logic 0 state).
This condition exists until disabled by setting LCR[6] to a logic 0.
Logic 0 = no TX break condition (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = forces the transmitter output (TX) to a logic 0 for alerting
the remote receiver to a line break condition.
5
LCR[5]
Set parity. If the parity bit is enabled, LCR[5] selects the forced parity
format. Programs the parity conditions (see Table 16).
Logic 0 = parity is not forced (normal default condition).
LCR[5] = logic 1 and LCR[4] = logic 0: parity bit is forced to a
logical 1 for the transmit and receive data.
LCR[5] = logic 1 and LCR[4] = logic 1: parity bit is forced to a
logical 0 for the transmit and receive data.
4
LCR[4]
Even parity. If the parity bit is enabled with LCR[3] set to a logic 1,
LCR[4] selects the even or odd parity format.
Logic 0 = Odd Parity is generated by forcing an odd number of
logic 1s in the transmitted data. The receiver must be programmed
to check the same format (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = Even Parity is generated by forcing an even number of
logic 1s in the transmitted data. The receiver must be programmed
to check the same format.
3
LCR[3]
Parity enable. Parity or no parity can be selected via this bit.
Logic 0 = no parity (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = a parity bit is generated during the transmission, receiver
checks the data and parity for transmission errors.
2
LCR[2]
Stop bits. The length of stop bit is specified by this bit in conjunction
with the programmed word length (see Table 17).
Logic 0 or cleared = default condition.
1:0
LCR[1:0]
Word length bits 1, 0. These two bits specify the word length to be
transmitted or received (see Table 18).
Logic 0 or cleared = default condition.

Logic 0 = No error (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = At least one parity error, framing error or break indication is in the
current FIFO data. This bit is cleared when LSR register is read.
6
LSR[6]
THR and TSR empty. This bit is the Transmit Empty indicator. This bit is set to
a logic 1 whenever the transmit holding register and the transmit shift register
are both empty. It is reset to logic 0 whenever either the THR or TSR contains
a data character. In the FIFO mode, this bit is set to ‘1’ whenever the transmit
FIFO and transmit shift register are both empty.
5
LSR[5]
THR empty. This bit is the Transmit Holding Register Empty indicator. This bit
indicates that the UART is ready to accept a new character for transmission.
In addition, this bit causes the UART to issue an interrupt to CPU when the
THR interrupt enable is set. The THR bit is set to a logic 1 when a character is
transferred from the transmit holding register into the transmitter shift register.
The bit is reset to a logic 0 concurrently with the loading of the transmitter
holding register by the CPU. In the FIFO mode, this bit is set when the
transmit FIFO is empty; it is cleared when at least 1 byte is written to the
transmit FIFO.
4
LSR[4]
Break interrupt.
Logic 0 = No break condition (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = The receiver received a break signal (RX was a logic 0 for one
character frame time). In the FIFO mode, only one break character is
loaded into the FIFO.
3
LSR[3]
Framing error.
Logic 0 = No framing error (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = Framing error. The receive character did not have a valid stop
bit(s). In the FIFO mode, this error is associated with the character at the
top of the FIFO.
2
LSR[2]
Parity error.
Logic 0 = No parity error (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = Parity error. The receive character does not have correct parity
information and is suspect. In the FIFO mode, this error is associated with
the character at the top of the FIFO.
1
LSR[1]
Overrun error.
Logic 0 = No overrun error (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = Overrun error. A data overrun error occurred in the receive shift
register. This happens when additional data arrives while the FIFO is full. In
this case, the previous data in the shift register is overwritten. Note that
under this condition, the data byte in the receive shift register is not
transferred into the FIFO, therefore the data in the FIFO is not corrupted by
the error.

Receive data ready.
Logic 0 = No data in receive holding register or FIFO (normal default
condition).
Logic 1 = Data has been received and is saved in the receive holding
register or FIFO.
7.8 Modem Status Register (MSR)
This register provides the current state of the control interface signals from the modem, or
other peripheral device to which the SC16C554B/554DB is connected. Four bits of this
register are used to indicate the changed information. These bits are set to a logic 1
whenever a control input from the modem changes state. These bits are set to a logic 0
whenever the CPU reads this register.
Table 21:
Modem Status Register bits description

Description
7
MSR[7]
CD (active HIGH, logical 1). Normally this bit is the complement of the CD
input. In the loop-back mode this bit is equivalent to the OP2 bit in the MCR
register.
6
MSR[6]
RI (active HIGH, logical 1). Normally this bit is the complement of the RI
input. In the loop-back mode this bit is equivalent to the OP1 bit in the MCR
register.
5
MSR[5]
DSR (active HIGH, logical 1). Normally this bit is the complement of the DSR
input. In loop-back mode this bit is equivalent to the DTR bit in the MCR
register.
4
MSR[4]
CTS (active HIGH, logical 1). CTS functions as hardware flow control signal
input if it is enabled via MCR[5]. Flow control (when enabled) allows starting
and stopping the transmissions based on the external modem CTS signal. A
logic 1 at the CTS pin will stop SC16C554B/554DB transmissions as soon
as current character has finished transmission. Normally MSR[4] is the
complement of the CTS input. However, in the loop-back mode, this bit is
equivalent to the RTS bit in the MCR register.
3
MSR[3]
∆CD
[1]
Logic 0 = No CD change (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = The CD input to the SC16C554B/554DB has changed state
since the last time it was read. A modem Status Interrupt will be
generated.
2
MSR[2]
∆RI
[1]
Logic 0 = No RI change (normal default condition).
Logic 1 = The RI input to the SC16C554B/554DB has changed from a
logic 0 to a logic 1. A modem Status Interrupt will be generated.

12. Soldering
12.1 Introduction to soldering surface mount packages
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology. A more in-depth account of
soldering ICs can be found in our Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages
(document order number 9398 652 90011).
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all surface mount IC packages. Wave
soldering can still be used for certain surface mount ICs, but it is not suitable for fine pitch
SMDs. In these situations reflow soldering is recommended.
12.2 Reflow soldering
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of fine solder particles, flux and
binding agent) to be applied to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement. Driven by legislation and
environmental forces the worldwide use of lead-free solder pastes is increasing.
Several methods exist for reflowing; for example, convection or convection/infrared
heating in a conveyor type oven. Throughput times (preheating, soldering and cooling)
vary between 100 seconds and 200 seconds depending on heating method.
Typical reflow peak temperatures range from 215 °C to 270 °C depending on solder paste
material. The top-surface temperature of the packages should preferably be kept:
• below 225 °C (SnPb process) or below 245 °C (Pb-free process)
– for all BGA, HTSSON..T and SSOP..T packages
– for packages with a thickness ≥ 2.5 mm
– for packages with a thickness < 2.5 mm and a volume ≥ 350 mm3 so called
thick/large packages.
• below 240 °C (SnPb process) or below 260 °C (Pb-free process) for packages with a
thickness < 2.5 mm and a volume < 350 mm3 so called small/thin packages.
Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on packing, must be respected at all times.
12.3 Wave soldering
Conventional single wave soldering is not recommended for surface mount devices
(SMDs) or printed-circuit boards with a high component density, as solder bridging and
non-wetting can present major problems.
To overcome these problems the double-wave soldering method was specifically
developed.
If wave soldering is used the following conditions must be observed for optimal results:
• Use a double-wave soldering method comprising a turbulent wave with high upward
pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave.
• For packages with leads on two sides and a pitch (e):
– larger than or equal to 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis is preferred to be
parallel to the transport direction of the printed-circuit board;

Philips Semiconductors
5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 16-byte FIFOs
– smaller than 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis must be parallel to the
transport direction of the printed-circuit board.
The footprint must incorporate solder thieves at the downstream end.
• For packages with leads on four sides, the footprint must be placed at a 45° angle to
the transport direction of the printed-circuit board. The footprint must incorporate
solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
During placement and before soldering, the package must be fixed with a droplet of
adhesive. The adhesive can be applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe
dispensing. The package can be soldered after the adhesive is cured.
Typical dwell time of the leads in the wave ranges from 3 seconds to 4 seconds at 250 °C
or 265 °C, depending on solder material applied, SnPb or Pb-free respectively.
A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal of corrosive residues in most
applications.
12.4 Manual soldering
Fix the component by first soldering two diagonally-opposite end leads. Use a low voltage
(24 V or less) soldering iron applied to the flat part of the lead. Contact time must be
limited to 10 seconds at up to 300 °C.
When using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be soldered in one operation within
2 seconds to 5 seconds between 270 °C and 320 °C.

For more detailed information on the BGA packages refer to the (LF)BGA Application Note (AN01026);
order a copy from your Philips Semiconductors sales office.
[2]
All surface mount (SMD) packages are moisture sensitive. Depending upon the moisture content, the
maximum temperature (with respect to time) and body size of the package, there is a risk that internal or
external package cracks may occur due to vaporization of the moisture in them (the so called popcorn
effect). For details, refer to the Drypack information in the Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit
Packages; Section: Packing Methods.
[3]
These transparent plastic packages are extremely sensitive to reflow soldering conditions and must on no
account be processed through more than one soldering cycle or subjected to infrared reflow soldering with
peak temperature exceeding 217 °C ± 10 °C measured in the atmosphere of the reflow oven. The package
body peak temperature must be kept as low as possible.

These packages are not suitable for wave soldering. On versions with the heatsink on the bottom side, the
solder cannot penetrate between the printed-circuit board and the heatsink. On versions with the heatsink
on the top side, the solder might be deposited on the heatsink surface.
[5]
If wave soldering is considered, then the package must be placed at a 45° angle to the solder wave
direction. The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
[6]
Wave soldering is suitable for LQFP, QFP and TQFP packages with a pitch (e) larger than 0.8 mm; it is
definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.65 mm.
[7]
Wave soldering is suitable for SSOP, TSSOP, VSO and VSSOP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger
than 0.65 mm; it is definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.5 mm.
[8]
Image sensor packages in principle should not be soldered. They are mounted in sockets or delivered
pre-mounted on flex foil. However, the image sensor package can be mounted by the client on a flex foil by
using a hot bar soldering process. The appropriate soldering profile can be provided on request.
[9]
Hot bar soldering or manual soldering is suitable for PMFP packages.
