SEPTEMBER 2008
REV. 1.0.0
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XR16M6801 (M680) is an enhanced Universal
Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter (UART) with
32 bytes of transmit and receive FIFOs, selectable
transmit and receive FIFO trigger levels, automatic
hardware and software flow control, and data rates of
up to 16 Mbps at 3.3V, 12.5 Mbps at 2.5V and 7.5
Mbps at 1.8V with 4X data sampling rate.
The Auto RS-485 Half-Duplex Direction control
feature simplifies both the hardware and software for
half-duplex RS-485 applications. In addition, the
Multidrop mode with Auto Address detection
increases the performance by simplifying the
software routines.
The Independent TX/RX Baud Rate Generator
feature allows the transmitter and receiver to operate
at different baud rates. Power consumption of the
M680 can be minimized by enabling the sleep mode
and PowerSave mode.
The M680 has a 16550 compatible register set that
provide users with operating status and control,
receiver error indications, and modem serial interface
controls. An internal loopback capability allows
onboard diagnostics. The M680 is available in 32-pin
QFN, 48-pin TQFP and 25-pin BGA packages. All
three packages offer both the 16 mode (Intel bus)
interface and the 68 mode (Motorola bus) interface
which allows easy integration with Motorola
processors.

1.62V TO 3.63V HIGH PERFORMANCE UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO
1.0 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The XR16M680 (M680) is a high performance single channel UART. It has its set of device configuration
registers. The configuration registers set is 16550 UART compatible for control, status and data transfer.
Additionally, the M680 channel has 32 bytes of transmit and receive FIFOs, Automatic RTS/CTS Hardware
Flow Control, Automatic Xon/Xoff and Special Character Software Flow Control, infrared encoder and decoder
(IrDA ver 1.0 and 1.1), programmable fractional baud rate generator with a prescaler of divide by 1 or 4, and
data rate up to 16 Mbps. The XR16M680 can operate from 1.62 to 3.63 volts. The M680 is fabricated with an
advanced CMOS process.
Larger FIFO
The M680 provides a solution that supports 32 bytes of transmit and receive FIFO memory, instead of 16 bytes
in the XR16L580. The M680 is designed to work with high performance data communication systems, that
requires fast data processing time. Increased performance is realized in the M680 by the larger transmit and
receive FIFOs, FIFO trigger level control and automatic flow control mechanism. This allows the external
processor to handle more networking tasks within a given time. For example, the XR16L580 with a 16 byte
FIFO, unloads 16 bytes of receive data in 1.53 ms (This example uses a character length of 11 bits, including
start/stop bits at 115.2Kbps). This means the external CPU will have to service the receive FIFO at 1.53 ms
intervals. However with the 32 byte FIFO in the M680, the data buffer will not require unloading/loading for 6.1
ms. This increases the service interval giving the external CPU additional time for other applications and
reducing the overall UART interrupt servicing time. In addition, the selectable FIFO level trigger interrupt and
automatic hardware/software flow control is uniquely provided for maximum data throughput performance
especially when operating in a multi-channel system. The combination of the above greatly reduces the CPU’s
bandwidth requirement, increases performance, and reduces power consumption.
Data Rate
The M680 is capable of operation up to 16 Mbps at 3.3V with 4X internal sampling clock rate. The device can
operate at 3.3V with a 24 MHz crystal on pins XTAL1 and XTAL2, or external clock source of 32 MHz on
XTAL1 pin. With a typical crystal of 14.7456 MHz and through a software option, the user can set the prescaler
bit and sampling rate for data rates of up to 3.68 Mbps.
Enhanced Features
The rich feature set of the M680 is available through the internal registers. Automatic hardware/software flow
control, selectable transmit and receive FIFO trigger levels, selectable baud rates, infrared encoder/decoder,
modem interface controls, and a sleep mode are all standard features. MCR bit-5 provides a facility for turning
off (Xon) software flow control with any incoming (RX) character. The M680 includes new features such as 9bit (Multidrop) mode, auto RS-485 half-duplex direction control, different baud rate for TX and RX, fast IR mode
and fractional baud rate generator.

2.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS
2.1
CPU Interface
The CPU interface is 8 data bits wide with 3 address lines and control signals to execute data bus read and
write transactions. The M680 data interface supports the Intel and Motorola compatible types of CPUs. No
clock (oscillator nor external clock) is required for a data bus transaction. Each bus cycle is asynchronous
using CS#, IOR# and IOW# or R/W# inputs. A typical data bus interconnection for Intel and Motorola mode is
shown in Figure 4.

2.3
Device Reset
The RESET input resets the internal registers and the serial interface outputs to their default state (see
Table 16). An active high pulse of longer than 40 ns duration will be required to activate the reset function in
the device. Following a power-on reset or an external reset, the M680 is software compatible with previous
generation of UARTs, XR16L580 and ST16C550.
2.4
Internal Registers
The M680 has a set of 16550 compatible registers for controlling, monitoring and data loading and unloading.
These registers function as data holding registers (THR/RHR), interrupt status and control registers (ISR/IER),
a FIFO control register (FCR), receive line status and control registers (LSR/LCR), modem status and control
registers (MSR/MCR), programmable data rate (clock) divisor registers (DLL/DLM/DLD), and a user accessible
scratchpad register (SPR).
Beyond the general 16C550 features and capabilities, the M680 offers enhanced feature registers (EFR, Xon1/
Xoff 1, Xon2/Xoff 2, DLD, FCTR, EMSR and FC) that provide automatic RTS and CTS hardware flow control,
automatic Xon/Xoff software flow control, 9-bit (Multidrop) mode, auto RS-485 half duplex control, different
baud rate for TX and RX and fractional baud rate generator. All the register functions are discussed in full
detail later in “Section 3.0, UART INTERNAL REGISTERS” on page 25.
2.5
INT Ouput
The interrupt outputs change according to the operating mode and enhanced features setup. Table 1 and 2
summarize the operating behavior for the transmitter and receiver. Also see Figure 22 through 25.
NOTE: The IRQ# pin requires a pull-up resistor for proper operation.

Crystal Oscillator or External Clock Input
The M680 includes an on-chip oscillator to produce a clock for the baud rate generators in the device when a
crystal is connected between XTAL1 and XTAL2 as show below. The CPU data bus does not require this clock
for bus operation. The crystal oscillator provides a system clock to the Baud Rate Generators (BRGs) in the
UART. XTAL1 is the input to the oscillator or external clock buffer input with XTAL2 pin being the output. For
programming details, see “Section 2.7, Programmable Baud Rate Generator with Fractional Divisor” on
page 13.

The on-chip oscillator is designed to use an industry standard microprocessor crystal (parallel resonant,
fundamental frequency with 10-22 pF capacitance load, ESR of 20-120 ohms and 100ppm frequency
tolerance) connected externally between the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins. Typical oscillator connections are shown
in Figure 7. Alternatively, an external clock can be connected to the XTAL1 pin to clock the internal baud rate
generator for standard or custom rates. The BGA package has XTAL1 only, the external clock is required. For
further reading on oscillator circuit, see application note DAN108 on EXAR’s web site.

Programmable Baud Rate Generator with Fractional Divisor
The M680 has independent Baud Rate Generators (BRGs) with prescalers for the transmitter and receiver.
The prescaler is controlled by a software bit in the MCR register. The MCR register bit-7 sets the prescaler to
divide the input crystal or external clock by 1 or 4. The output of the prescaler clocks to the BRG. The BRG
further divides this clock by a programmable divisor between 1 and (216 - 0.0625) in increments of 0.0625 (1/
16) to obtain a 16X or 8X or 4X sampling clock of the serial data rate. The sampling clock is used by the
transmitter for data bit shifting and receiver for data sampling. For transmitter and receiver, the M680 provides
respective BRG divisors. The BRG divisor (DLL, DLM, and DLD registers) defaults to the value of ’1’ (DLL =
0x01, DLM = 0x00 and DLD = 0x00) upon reset. Therefore, the BRG must be programmed during initialization
to the operating data rate. The DLL and DLM registers provide the integer part of the divisor and the DLD
registers provides the fractional part of the divisor. The four lower bits of the DLD are used to select a value
from 0 (for setting 0000) to 0.9375 or 15/16 (for setting 1111). Programming the Baud Rate Generator
Registers DLL, DLM and DLD provides the capability for selecting the operating data rate. Table 3 shows the
standard data rates available with a 24MHz crystal or external clock at 16X clock rate. If the pre-scaler is used
(MCR bit-7 = 1), the output data rate will be 4 times less than that shown in Table 3. At 8X sampling rate, these
data rates would double. And at 4X sampling rate, they would quadruple. Also, when using 8X sampling mode,
please note that the bit-time will have a jitter (+/- 1/16) whenever the DLD is non-zero and is an odd number.
When using a non-standard data rate crystal or external clock, the divisor value can be calculated with the
following equation(s):
Required Divisor (decimal)=(XTAL1 clock frequency / prescaler) /(serial data rate x 16), with 16X mode, DLD[5:4]=’00’
Required Divisor (decimal)= (XTAL1 clock frequency / prescaler / (serial data rate x 8), with 8X mode, DLD[5:4] = ’01’
Required Divisor (decimal)= (XTAL1 clock frequency / prescaler / (serial data rate x 4), with 4X mode, DLD[5:4] = ’10’
The closest divisor that is obtainable in the M680 can be calculated using the following formula:
ROUND( (Required Divisor - TRUNC(Required Divisor) )*16)/16 + TRUNC(Required Divisor), where
DLM = TRUNC(Required Divisor) >> 8
DLL = TRUNC(Required Divisor) & 0xFF
DLD = ROUND( (Required Divisor-TRUNC(Required Divisor) )*16)
In the formulas above, please note that:
TRUNC (N) = Integer Part of N. For example, TRUNC (5.6) = 5.
ROUND (N) = N rounded towards the closest integer. For example, ROUND (7.3) = 7 and ROUND (9.9) = 10.
A >> B indicates right shifting the value ’A’ by ’B’ number of bits. For example, 0x78A3 >> 8 = 0x0078.
2.7.1
Independent TX/RX BRG
The XR16M680 has two independent sets of TX and RX baud rate generator. Please see the Figure 8. TX and
RX can work in different baud rate by setting DLD, DLL and DLM register. For example, TX can transmit data
to the remote UART at 9600 bps while RX receives data from remote UART at 921.6 Kbps. For the baud rate
setting, please See ”Section 4.13, Baud Rate Generator Registers (DLL, DLM and DLD) - Read/Write” on

Transmitter
The transmitter section comprises of an 8-bit Transmit Shift Register (TSR) and 32 bytes of FIFO which
includes a byte-wide Transmit Holding Register (THR). TSR shifts out every data bit with the 16X/8X/4X
internal clock. A bit time is 16/8/4 clock periods. The transmitter sends the start-bit followed by the number of
data bits, inserts the proper parity-bit if enabled, and adds the stop-bit(s). The status of the FIFO and TSR are
reported in the Line Status Register (LSR bit-5 and bit-6).
2.8.1
Transmit Holding Register (THR) - Write Only
The transmit holding register is an 8-bit register providing a data interface to the host processor. The host
writes transmit data byte to the THR to be converted into a serial data stream including start-bit, data bits,
parity-bit and stop-bit(s). The least-significant-bit (Bit-0) becomes first data bit to go out. The THR is the input
register to the transmit FIFO of 32 bytes when FIFO operation is enabled by FCR bit-0. Every time a write
operation is made to the THR, the FIFO data pointer is automatically bumped to the next sequential data
location.
2.8.2
Transmitter Operation in non-FIFO Mode
The host loads transmit data to THR one character at a time. The THR empty flag (LSR bit-5) is set when the
data byte is transferred to TSR. THR flag can generate a transmit empty interrupt (ISR bit-1) when it is enabled
by IER bit-1. The TSR flag (LSR bit-6) is set when TSR becomes completely empty.

Transmitter Operation in FIFO Mode
The host may fill the transmit FIFO with up to 32 bytes of transmit data. The THR empty flag (LSR bit-5) is set
whenever the FIFO is empty. The THR empty flag can generate a transmit empty interrupt (ISR bit-1) when the
FIFO becomes empty. The transmit empty interrupt is enabled by IER bit-1. The TSR flag (LSR bit-6) is set
when TSR/FIFO becomes empty.

Receiver
The receiver section contains an 8-bit Receive Shift Register (RSR) and 32 bytes of FIFO which includes a
byte-wide Receive Holding Register (RHR). The RSR uses the 16X/8X/4X clock (DLD[5:4]) for timing. It
verifies and validates every bit on the incoming character in the middle of each data bit. On the falling edge of
a start or false start bit, an internal receiver counter starts counting at the 16X/8X/4X clock rate. After 8 clocks
(or 4 if 8X or 2 if 4X) the start bit period should be at 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. The rest of the data bits and stop bits are sampled and validated in this same
manner to prevent false framing. If there were any error(s), they are reported in the LSR register bits 2-4. Upon
unloading the receive data byte from RHR, the receive FIFO pointer is bumped and the error tags are
immediately updated to reflect the status of the data byte in RHR register. RHR can generate a receive data
ready interrupt upon receiving a character or delay until it reaches the FIFO trigger level. Furthermore, data
delivery to the host is guaranteed by a receive data ready time-out interrupt when data is not received for 4
word lengths as defined by LCR[1:0] plus 12 bits time. This is equivalent to 3.7-4.6 character times. The RHR
interrupt is enabled by IER bit-0. See Figure 11 and Figure 12 below.
2.9.1
Receive Holding Register (RHR) - Read-Only
The Receive Holding Register is an 8-bit register that holds a receive data byte from the Receive Shift
Register. It provides the receive data interface to the host processor. The RHR register is part of the receive
FIFO of 32 bytes by 11-bits wide, the 3 extra bits are for the 3 error tags to be reported in LSR register. When
the FIFO is enabled by FCR bit-0, the RHR contains the first data character received by the FIFO. After the
RHR is read, the next character byte is loaded into the RHR and the errors associated with the current data
byte are immediately updated in the LSR bits 2-4.

Auto RTS (Hardware) Flow Control
Automatic RTS hardware flow control is used to prevent data overrun to the local receiver FIFO. The RTS#
output is used to request remote unit to suspend/resume data transmission. The auto RTS flow control
features is enabled to fit specific application requirement (see Figure 13):
• Enable auto RTS flow control using EFR bit-6.
• The auto RTS function must be started by asserting RTS# output pin (MCR bit-1 to logic 1 after it is enabled).
If using the Auto RTS interrupt:
• Enable RTS interrupt through IER bit-6 (after setting EFR bit-4). The UART issues an interrupt when the
RTS# pin makes a transition from low to high: ISR bit-5 will be set to logic 1.
2.11
Auto RTS Hysteresis
With the Auto RTS function enabled, an interrupt is generated when the receive FIFO reaches the selected RX
trigger level. The RTS# pin will not be forced HIGH (RTS off) until the receive FIFO reaches one trigger level
above the selected trigger level in the trigger table (Table 9). The RTS# pin will return LOW after the RX FIFO
is unloaded to one level below the selected trigger level. Under the above described conditions, the M680 will
continue to accept data until the receive FIFO gets full. The Auto RTS function is initiated when the RTS#
output pin is asserted LOW (RTS On).

The local UART (UARTA) starts data transfer by asserting RTSA# (1). RTSA# is normally connected to CTSB# (2) of
remote UART (UARTB). CTSB# allows its transmitter to send data (3). TXB data arrives and fills UARTA receive FIFO
(4). When RXA data fills up to its receive FIFO trigger level, UARTA activates its RXA data ready interrupt (5) and continues to receive and put data into its FIFO. If interrupt service latency is long and data is not being unloaded, UARTA
monitors its receive data fill level to match the upper threshold of RTS delay and de-assert RTSA# (6). CTSB# follows
(7) and request UARTB transmitter to suspend data transfer. UARTB stops or finishes sending the data bits in its transmit shift register (8). When receive FIFO data in UARTA is unloaded to match the lower threshold of RTS delay (9),
UARTA re-asserts RTSA# (10), CTSB# recognizes the change (11) and restarts its transmitter and data flow again until
next receive FIFO trigger (12). This same event applies to the reverse direction when UARTA sends data to UARTB
with RTSB# and CTSA# controlling the data flow.

Auto Xon/Xoff (Software) Flow Control
When software flow control is enabled (See Table 15), the M680 compares one or two sequential receive data
characters with the programmed Xon or Xoff-1,2 character value(s). If receive character(s) (RX) match the
programmed values, the M680 will halt transmission (TX) as soon as the current character has completed
transmission. When a match occurs, the Xoff (if enabled via IER bit-5) flag will be set and the interrupt output
pin will be activated. Following a suspension due to a match of the Xoff character, the M680 will monitor the
receive data stream for a match to the Xon-1,2 character. If a match is found, the M680 will resume operation
and clear the flags (ISR bit-4).
Reset initially sets the contents of the Xon/Xoff 8-bit flow control registers to a logic 0. Following reset the user
can write any Xon/Xoff value desired for software flow control. Different conditions can be set to detect Xon/
Xoff characters (See Table 15) and suspend/resume transmissions. When double 8-bit Xon/Xoff characters
are selected, the M680 compares two consecutive receive characters with two software flow control 8-bit
values (Xon1, Xon2, Xoff1, Xoff2) and controls TX transmissions accordingly. Under the above described flow
control mechanisms, flow control characters are not placed (stacked) in the user accessible RX data buffer or
FIFO.
In the event that the receive buffer is overfilling and flow control needs to be executed, the M680 automatically
sends an Xoff message (when enabled) via the serial TX output to the remote modem. The M680 sends the
Xoff-1,2 characters two-character-times (= time taken to send two characters at the programmed baud rate)
after the receive FIFO crosses the selected trigger level. To clear this condition, the M680 will transmit the
programmed Xon-1,2 characters as soon as receive FIFO is less than one trigger level below the selected
trigger level. Table 5 below explains this.

2.14
Special Character Detect
A special character detect feature is provided to detect an 8-bit character when bit-5 is set in the Enhanced
Feature Register (EFR). When this character (Xoff2) is detected, it will be placed in the FIFO along with normal
incoming RX data.
The M680 compares each incoming receive character with Xoff-2 data. If a match exists, the received data will
be transferred to the RX FIFO and ISR bit-4 will be set to indicate detection of special character. Although the
Internal Register Table shows Xon, Xoff Registers with eight bits of character information, the actual number of
bits is dependent on the programmed word length. Line Control Register (LCR) bits 0-1 defines the number of
character bits, i.e., either 5 bits, 6 bits, 7 bits, or 8 bits. The word length selected by LCR bits 0-1 also
determines the number of bits that will be used for the special character comparison. Bit-0 in the Xon, Xoff
Registers corresponds with the LSB bit for the receive character.
2.15
Normal Multidrop Mode
Normal multidrop mode is enabled when MSR[6] = 1 (requires EFR[4] = 1) and EFR[5] = 0 (Special Character
Detect disabled). The receiver is set to Force Parity 0 (LCR[5:3] = ’111’) in order to detect address bytes.
With the receiver initially disabled, it ignores all the data bytes (parity bit = 0) until an address byte is received
(parity bit = 1). This address byte will cause the UART to set the parity error. The UART will generate an LSR
20

REV. 1.0.0
interrupt and place the address byte in the RX FIFO. The software then examines the byte and enables the
receiver if the address matches its slave address, otherwise, it does not enable the receiver.
If the receiver has been enabled, the receiver will receive the subsequent data. If an address byte is received,
it will generate an LSR interrupt. The software again examines the byte and if the address matches its slave
address, it does not have to do anything. If the address does not match its slave address, then the receiver
should be disabled.
2.15.1
Auto Address Detection
Auto address detection mode is enabled when MSR[6] = 1 (requires EFR[4] = 1) and EFR bit-5 = 1. The
desired slave address will need to be written into the XOFF2 register. The receiver will try to detect an address
byte that matches the porgrammed character in the XOFF2 register. If the received byte is a data byte or an
address byte that does not match the programmed character in the XOFF2 register, the receiver will discard
these data. Upon receiving an address byte that matches the XOFF2 character, the receiver will be
automatically enabled if not already enabled, and the address character is pushed into the RX FIFO along with
the parity bit (in place of the parity error bit). The receiver also generates an LSR interrupt. The receiver will
then receive the subsequent data. If another address byte is received and this address does not match the
programmed XOFF2 character, then the receiver will automatically be disabled and the address byte is
ignored. If the address byte matches XOFF2, the receiver will put this byte in the RX FIFO along with the parity
bit in the parity error bit.
2.16
Infrared Mode
The M680 UART includes the infrared encoder and decoder compatible to the IrDA (Infrared Data Association)
version 1.0 and 1.1. The IrDA 1.0 standard that stipulates the infrared encoder sends out a 3/16 of a bit wide
HIGH-pulse for each “0” bit in the transmit data stream with a data rate up to 115.2 Kbps. For the IrDA 1.1
standard, the infrared encoder sends out a 1/4 of a bit time wide HIGH-pulse for each "0" bit in the transmit
data stream with a data rate up to 1.152 Mbps. This signal encoding reduces the on-time of the infrared LED,
hence reduces the power consumption. See Figure 14 below.
The infrared encoder and decoder are enabled by setting MCR register bit-6 to a ‘1’. With this bit enabled, the
infrared encoder and decoder is compatible to the IrDA 1.0 standard. For the infrared encoder and decoder to
be compatible to the IrDA 1.1 standard, MSR bit-7 will also need to be set to a ’1’ when EFR bit-4 is set to ’1’.
Likewise, the RX input assumes an idle level of logic zero from a reset and power up, see Figure 14.
Typically, the wireless infrared decoder receives the input pulse from the infrared sensing diode on the RX pin.
Each time it senses a light pulse, it returns a logic 1 to the data bit stream.

Sleep Mode with Auto Wake-Up and Power-Save feature
The M680 supports low voltage system designs, hence, a sleep mode with auto wake-up and power-save
feature is included to reduce its power consumption when the chip is not actively used.
2.17.1
Sleep mode
All of these conditions must be satisfied for the M680 to enter sleep mode:
■
no interrupts pending (ISR bit-0 = 1)
■
sleep mode is enabled (IER bit-4 = 1)
■
modem inputs are not toggling (MSR bits 0-3 = 0)
■
RX input pin is idling HIGH in normal mode or LOW in infrared mode
■
divisor is non-zero
■
TX and RX FIFOs are empty
The M680 stops its crystal oscillator to conserve power in the sleep mode. User can check the XTAL2 pin for
no clock output as an indication that the device has entered the sleep mode.
The M680 resumes normal operation by any of the following:
■
a receive data start bit transition (HIGH to LOW)
■
a data byte is loaded to the transmitter, THR or FIFO
■
a change of logic state on any of the modem or general purpose serial inputs: CTS#, DSR#, CD#, RI#
If the M680 is awakened by any one of the above conditions, it will return to the sleep mode automatically after
all interrupting conditions have been serviced and cleared. If the M680 is awakened by the modem inputs, a
read to the MSR is required to reset the modem inputs. In any case, the sleep mode will not be entered while
22
XR16M680
1.62V TO 3.63V HIGH PERFORMANCE UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO
REV. 1.0.0
an interrupt is pending from any channel. The M680 will stay in the sleep mode of operation until it is disabled
by setting IER bit-4 to a logic 0.
A word of caution: owing to the starting up delay of the crystal oscillator after waking up from sleep mode, the
first few receive characters may be lost. Also, make sure the RX pin is idling HIGH or “marking” condition
during sleep mode. This may not occur when the external interface transceivers (RS-232, RS-485 or another
type) are also put to sleep mode and cannot maintain the “marking” condition. To avoid this, the system design
engineer can use a 47k ohm pull-up resistor on each of the RX input.
2.17.2
Power-Save Feature
If the address lines, data bus lines, IOW#, IOR#, CS# and modem input lines remain steady when the M680 is
in sleep mode, the maximum current will be in the microamp range as specified in the DC Electrical
Characteristics on page 44. If the input lines are floating or are toggling while the M680 is in sleep mode, the
current can be up to 100 times more. If not using the Power-Save feature, an external buffer would be required
to keep the address and data bus lines from toggling or floating to achieve the low current. But if the PowerSave feature is enabled (PwrSave pin connected to VCC), this will eliminate the need for an external buffer by
internally isolating the address, data and control signals (see Figure 1 on page 1) from other bus activities that
could cause wasteful power drain. The M680 enters Power-Save mode when this pin is connected to VCC and
the M680 is in sleep mode (see Sleep Mode section above).
Since Power-Save mode isolates the address, data and control signals, the device will wake-up only by:
■
a receive data start bit transition (HIGH to LOW) at the RX input or
■
a change of logic state on the modem or general purpose serial input CTS#, DSR#, CD#, RI#
The M680 will return to the Power-Save mode automatically after a read to the MSR (to reset the modem input
CTS#) and all interrupting conditions have been serviced and cleared. The M680 will stay in the Power-Save
mode of operation until it is disabled by setting IER bit-4 to a logic 0 and/or the Power-Save pin is connected to
GND.
2.17.3
Wake-up Interrupt
The M680 has the wake up interrupt. By setting the FCR bit-3, wake up interrupt is enabled or disabled. The
default status of wake up interrupt is disabled. Please See ”Section 4.5, FIFO Control Register (FCR) Write-Only” on page 31.

Internal Loopback
The M680 UART provides an internal loopback capability for system diagnostic purposes. The internal
loopback mode is enabled by setting MCR register bit-4 to logic 1. All regular UART functions operate
normally. Figure 15 shows how the modem port signals are re-configured. Transmit data from the transmit shift
register output is internally routed to the receive shift register input allowing the system to receive the same
data that it was sending. The TX pin is held HIGH or mark condition while RTS# and DTR# are de-asserted,
and CTS#, DSR# CD# and RI# inputs are ignored. Caution: the RX input must be held HIGH during loopback
test else upon exiting the loopback test the UART may detect and report a false “break” signal.

IER versus Receive FIFO Interrupt Mode Operation
When the receive FIFO (FCR BIT-0 = 1) and receive interrupts (IER BIT-0 = 1) are enabled, the RHR interrupts
(see ISR bits 2 and 3) status will reflect the following:
A. The receive data available interrupts are issued to the host when the FIFO has reached the selected trigger level. It will be cleared when the FIFO drops below the selected trigger level.
B. FIFO level will be reflected in the 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.
C. The receive data ready bit (LSR BIT-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.
4.3.2
IER versus Receive/Transmit FIFO Polled Mode Operation
When FCR BIT-0 equals a logic 1 for FIFO enable; resetting IER bits 0-3 enables the XR16M680 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).
A. LSR BIT-0 indicates there is data in RHR or RX FIFO.
B. LSR BIT-1 indicates an overrun error has occurred and that data in the FIFO may not be valid.
C. LSR BIT 2-4 provides the type of receive data errors encountered for the data byte in RHR, if any.
D. LSR BIT-5 indicates THR is empty.
E. LSR BIT-6 indicates when both the transmit FIFO and TSR are empty.
F. LSR BIT-7 indicates a data error in at least one character in the RX FIFO.
IER[0]: RHR Interrupt Enable
The receive data ready interrupt will be issued when RHR has a data character in the non-FIFO mode or when
the receive FIFO has reached the selected trigger level in the FIFO mode.
Logic 0 = Disable the receive data ready interrupt (default).
Logic 1 = Enable the receiver data ready interrupt.
IER[1]: THR Interrupt Enable
This bit enables the Transmit Ready interrupt which is issued whenever the THR becomes empty in the nonFIFO mode or when data in the FIFO falls below the selected trigger level in the FIFO mode. If the THR is
empty when this bit is enabled, an interrupt will be generated.
Logic 0 = Disable Transmit Ready interrupt (default).
Logic 1 = Enable Transmit Ready interrupt.
IER[2]: Receive Line Status Interrupt Enable
If any of the LSR register bits 1, 2, 3 or 4 is a logic 1, it will generate an interrupt to inform the host controller
about the error status of the current data byte in FIFO. LSR bit-1 generates an interrupt immediately when an
overrun occurs. LSR bits 2-4 generate an interrupt when the character in the RHR has an error. However,
when EMSR bit-6 changes to 1 (default is 0), LSR bit 2-4 generate an interrupt when the character is received
in the RX FIFO. See “Section 4.12, Enhanced Mode Select Register (EMSR) - Write-only” on page 38.
• Logic 0 = Disable the receiver line status interrupt (default).
• Logic 1 = Enable the receiver line status interrupt.
IER[3]: Modem Status Interrupt Enable
• Logic 0 = Disable the modem status register interrupt (default).
• Logic 1 = Enable the modem status register interrupt.

• Logic 0 = Disable the software flow control, receive Xoff interrupt. (default)
• Logic 1 = Enable the software flow control, receive Xoff interrupt. See Software Flow Control section for
details.
IER[6]: RTS# Output Interrupt Enable (requires EFR[4]=1)
• Logic 0 = Disable the RTS# interrupt (default).
• Logic 1 = Enable the RTS# interrupt. The UART issues an interrupt when the RTS# pin makes a transition
from LOW to HIGH (if enabled by EFR bit-6).
IER[7]: CTS# Input Interrupt Enable (requires EFR[4]=1)
• Logic 0 = Disable the CTS# interrupt (default).
• Logic 1 = Enable the CTS# interrupt. The UART issues an interrupt when CTS# pin makes a transition from
LOW to HIGH (if enabled by EFR bit-7).
4.4
Interrupt Status Register (ISR) - Read-Only
The UART provides multiple levels of prioritized interrupts to minimize external software interaction. The
Interrupt Status Register (ISR) provides the user with six interrupt status bits. Performing a read cycle on the
ISR will give the user the current highest pending interrupt level to be serviced, others are queued up to be
serviced next. No other interrupts are acknowledged until the pending interrupt is serviced. The Interrupt
Source Table, Table 8, shows the data values (bit 0-5) for the interrupt priority levels and the interrupt sources
associated with each of these interrupt levels.
4.4.1
Interrupt Generation:
• LSR is by any of the LSR bits 1, 2, 3 and 4.
• RXRDY is by RX trigger level.
• RXRDY Time-out is by a 4-char plus 12 bits delay timer.
• TXRDY is by TX trigger level or TX FIFO empty.
• MSR is by any of the MSR bits 0, 1, 2 and 3.
• Receive Xon/Xoff/Special character is by detection of a Xon, Xoff or Special character.
• CTS# is when the remote transmitter toggles the input pin (from LOW to HIGH) during auto CTS flow control.
• RTS# is when its receiver toggles the output pin (from LOW to HIGH) during auto RTS flow control.
• Wakeup interrupt is generated when the M680 wakes up from the sleep mode.

FIFO Control Register (FCR) - Write-Only
This register is used to enable the FIFOs, clear the FIFOs, set the transmit/receive FIFO trigger levels, and
enable the wake up interrupt. They are defined as follows:
FCR[0]: TX and RX FIFO Enable
• Logic 0 = Disable the transmit and receive FIFO (default).
• Logic 1 = Enable the transmit and receive FIFOs. This bit must be set to logic 1 when other FCR bits are
written or they will not be programmed.
FCR[1]: RX FIFO Reset
This bit is only active when FCR bit-0 is a ‘1’.
• Logic 0 = No receive FIFO reset (default)
• Logic 1 = Reset the receive FIFO pointers and FIFO level counter logic (the receive shift register is not
cleared or altered). This bit will return to a logic 0 after resetting the FIFO.
FCR[2]: TX FIFO Reset
This bit is only active when FCR bit-0 is a ‘1’.
• Logic 0 = No transmit FIFO reset (default).
• Logic 1 = Reset the transmit FIFO pointers and FIFO level counter logic (the transmit shift register is not
cleared or altered). This bit will return to a logic 0 after resetting the FIFO.
FCR[3]: Enable wake up interrupt (requires EFR bit-4 = 1)
• Logic 0 = Disable the wake up interrupt (default).
• Logic 1 = Enable the wake up interrupt.
Please refer to “Section 2.17.3, Wake-up Interrupt” on page 23.
FCR[5:4]: Transmit FIFO Trigger Select (requires EFR bit-4 = 1)
These 2 bits set the trigger level for the transmit FIFO. The UART will issue a transmit interrupt when the
number of characters in the FIFO falls below the selected trigger level, or when it gets empty in case that the
FIFO did not get filled over the trigger level on last re-load. Table 9 below shows the selections. Note that the
receiver and the transmitter cannot use different trigger tables. Whichever selection is made last applies to
both the RX and TX side.
FCR[7:6]: Receive FIFO Trigger Select
These 2 bits are used to set the trigger level for the receive FIFO. The UART will issue a receive interrupt when
the number of the characters in the FIFO crosses the trigger level. Table 9 shows the complete selections.
Note that the receiver and the transmitter cannot use different trigger tables. Whichever selection is made last
applies to both the RX and TX side.

LCR[3]: TX and RX Parity Select
Parity or no parity can be selected via this bit. The parity bit is a simple way used in communications for data
integrity check. See Table 10 for parity selection summary below.
• Logic 0 = No parity.
• Logic 1 = A parity bit is generated during the transmission while the receiver checks for parity error of the
data character received.
LCR[4]: TX and RX Parity Select
If the parity bit is enabled with LCR bit-3 set to a logic 1, LCR BIT-4 selects the even or odd parity format.
• Logic 0 = ODD Parity is generated by forcing an odd number of logic 1’s in the transmitted character. The
receiver must be programmed to check the same format (default).
• Logic 1 = EVEN Parity is generated by forcing an even number of logic 1’s in the transmitted character. The
receiver must be programmed to check the same format.
LCR[5]: TX and RX Parity Select
If the parity bit is enabled, LCR BIT-5 selects the forced parity format.
• LCR BIT-5 = logic 0, parity is not forced (default).
• LCR BIT-5 = logic 1 and LCR BIT-4 = logic 0, parity bit is forced to a logical 1 for the transmit and receive
data.
• LCR BIT-5 = logic 1 and LCR BIT-4 = logic 1, parity bit is forced to a logical 0 for the transmit and receive
data.

“space’, logic 0, state). This condition remains, until disabled by setting LCR bit-6 to a logic 0.
• Logic 0 = No TX break condition. (default)
• Logic 1 = Forces the transmitter output (TX) to a “space”, logic 0, for alerting the remote receiver of a line
break condition.

Modem Control Register (MCR) or General Purpose Outputs Control - Read/Write
The MCR register is used for controlling the serial/modem interface signals or general purpose inputs/outputs.
MCR[0]: DTR# Output
The DTR# pin is a modem control output. If the modem interface is not used, this output may be used as a
general purpose output.
• Logic 0 = Force DTR# output HIGH (default).
• Logic 1 = Force DTR# output LOW.
MCR[1]: RTS# Output
The RTS# pin is a modem control output and may be used for automatic hardware flow control by enabled by
EFR bit-6. If the modem interface is not used, this output may be used as a general purpose output.
• Logic 0 = Force RTS# output HIGH (default).
• Logic 1 = Force RTS# output LOW. It is required to start Auto RTS Flow Control.
MCR[2]: Reserved
OP1# is not available as an output pin on the M680. But it is available for use during Internal Loopback Mode.
In the Loopback Mode, this bit is used to write the state of the modem RI# interface signal.
MCR[3]: INT Output Enable
Enable or disable INT outputs to become active or in three-state. This bit is also used to control the OP2#
signal during internal loopback mode.
• Logic 0 = INT output disabled (three state) in the 16 mode (default). During internal loopback mode, OP2# is
HIGH.

• Logic 1 = Enable local loopback mode, see loopback section and Figure 15.
MCR[5]: Xon-Any Enable (requires EFR bit-4 = 1)
• Logic 0 = Disable Xon-Any function (for 16C550 compatibility, default).
• Logic 1 = Enable Xon-Any function. In this mode, any RX character received will resume transmit operation.
The RX character will be loaded into the RX FIFO , unless the RX character is an Xon or Xoff character and
the M680 is programmed to use the Xon/Xoff flow control.
MCR[6]: Infrared Encoder/Decoder Enable (requires EFR bit-4 = 1)
• Logic 0 = Enable the standard modem receive and transmit input/output interface. (Default)
• Logic 1 = Enable infrared IrDA receive and transmit inputs/outputs. The TX/RX output/input are routed to the
infrared encoder/decoder. The data input and output levels conform to the IrDA infrared interface
requirement. The RX FIFO may need to be flushed upon enable. While in this mode, the infrared TX output
will be LOW during idle data conditions.
MCR[7]: Clock Prescaler Select (requires EFR bit-4 = 1)
• Logic 0 = Divide by one. The input clock from the crystal or external clock is fed directly to the Programmable
Baud Rate Generator without further modification, i.e., divide by one (default).
• Logic 1 = Divide by four. The prescaler divides the input clock from the crystal or external clock by four and
feeds it to the Programmable Baud Rate Generator, hence, data rates become one forth.
4.8
Line Status Register (LSR) - Read Only
This register provides the status of data transfers between the UART and the host. If IER bit-2 is enabled, LSR
bit 1 will generate an interrupt immediately and LSR bits 2-4 will generate an interrupt when a character with an
error is in the RHR.
LSR[0]: Receive Data Ready Indicator
• Logic 0 = No data in receive holding register or FIFO (default).
• Logic 1 = Data has been received and is saved in the receive holding register or FIFO.
LSR[1]: Receiver Overrun Flag
• Logic 0 = No overrun error (default).
• Logic 1 = Overrun error. A data overrun error condition 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 receive 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.
LSR[2]: Receive Data Parity Error Tag
• Logic 0 = No parity error (default).
• Logic 1 = Parity error. The receive character in RHR does not have correct parity information and is suspect.
This error is associated with the character available for reading in RHR.
LSR[3]: Receive Data Framing Error Tag
• Logic 0 = No framing error (default).
• Logic 1 = Framing error. The receive character did not have a valid stop bit(s). This error is associated with
the character available for reading in RHR.

LSR[4]: Receive Break Tag
• Logic 0 = No break condition (default).
• Logic 1 = The receiver received a break signal (RX was LOW for at least one character frame time). In the
FIFO mode, only one break character is loaded into the FIFO. The break indication remains until the RX
input returns to the idle condition, “mark” or HIGH.
LSR[5]: Transmit Holding Register Empty Flag
This bit is the Transmit Holding Register Empty indicator. The THR bit is set to a logic 1 when the last data byte
is transferred from the transmit holding register to the transmit shift register. The bit is reset to logic 0
concurrently with the data loading to the transmit holding register by the host. In the FIFO mode this bit is set
when the transmit FIFO is empty, it is cleared when the transmit FIFO contains at least 1 byte.
LSR[6]: THR and TSR Empty Flag
This bit is set to a logic 1 whenever the transmitter goes idle. It is set to logic 0 whenever either the THR or
TSR contains a data character. In the FIFO mode this bit is set to a logic 1 whenever the transmit FIFO and
transmit shift register are both empty.
LSR[7]: Receive FIFO Data Error Flag
• Logic 0 = No FIFO error (default).
• Logic 1 = A global indicator for the sum of all error bits in the RX FIFO. At least one parity error, framing error
or break indication is in the FIFO data. This bit clears when there is no more error(s) in any of the bytes in the
RX FIFO.
4.9
Modem Status Register (MSR) - Read Only
This register provides the current state of the modem interface input signals. Lower four bits of this register are
used to indicate the changed information. These bits are set to a logic 1 whenever a signal from the modem
changes state. These bits may be used for general purpose inputs when they are not used with modem
signals. Reading the higher four bits shows the status of the modem signals.
MSR[0]: Delta CTS# Input Flag
• Logic 0 = No change on CTS# input (default).
• Logic 1 = The CTS# input has changed state since the last time it was monitored. A modem status interrupt
will be generated if MSR interrupt is enabled (IER bit-3).
MSR[1]: Delta DSR# Input Flag
• Logic 0 = No change on DSR# input (default).
• Logic 1 = The DSR# input has changed state since the last time it was monitored. A modem status interrupt
will be generated if MSR interrupt is enabled (IER bit-3).
MSR[2]: Delta RI# Input Flag
• Logic 0 = No change on RI# input (default).
• Logic 1 = The RI# input has changed from LOW to HIGH, ending of the ringing signal. A modem status
interrupt will be generated if MSR interrupt is enabled (IER bit-3).
MSR[3]: Delta CD# Input Flag
• Logic 0 = No change on CD# input (default).
• Logic 1 = Indicates that the CD# input has changed state since the last time it was monitored. A modem
status interrupt will be generated if MSR interrupt is enabled (IER bit-3).

MSR[4]: CTS Input Status
CTS# pin may function as automatic hardware flow control signal input if it is enabled and selected by Auto
CTS (EFR bit-7). Auto CTS Flow Control allows starting and stopping of local data transmissions based on the
modem CTS# signal. A HIGH on the CTS# pin will stop UART transmitter as soon as the current character has
finished transmission, and a LOW will resume data transmission. Normally MSR bit-4 bit is the complement of
the CTS# input. However in the loopback mode, this bit is equivalent to the RTS# bit in the MCR register. The
CTS# input may be used as a general purpose input when the modem interface is not used.
MSR[5]: DSR Input Status
Normally this bit is the complement of the DSR# input. In the loopback mode, this bit is equivalent to the DTR#
bit in the MCR register. The DSR# input may be used as a general purpose input when the modem interface is
not used.
MSR[6]: RI Input Status
Normally this bit is the complement of the RI# input. In the loopback mode this bit is equivalent to bit-2 in the
MCR register. The RI# input may be used as a general purpose input when the modem interface is not used.
MSR[7]: CD Input Status
Normally this bit is the complement of the CD# input. In the loopback mode this bit is equivalent to bit-3 in the
MCR register. The CD# input may be used as a general purpose input when the modem interface is not used.

EMSR[2]: Send TX Immediately
• Logic 0 = Do not send TX immediately (default).
• Logic 1 = Send TX immediately. When FIFO is enabled and this bit is set, the next data will be written to the
TX shift register. Thus, the data will be sent out immediately instead of queuing in the FIFO. Every time, only
1 byte will be send out. Once this byte has been sent out, the EMSR[2] will go back to 0 automatically. If
more than 1 byte will be sent out, EMSR[2] needs to be set to 1 for each byte.
EMSR[3]: Invert RTS in RS485 mode

Baud Rate Generator Registers (DLL, DLM and DLD) - Read/Write
These registers make-up the value of the baud rate divisor. The M680 has different DLL, DLM and DLD for
transmitter and receiver. It provides more convenience for the transmitter and receiver to transmit data with
different rate. The M680 uses DLD[7:6] to select TX or RX. Then it provides DLD[5:0] to select the sampling
frequency and fractional baud rate divisor. The concatenation of the contents of DLM and DLL gives the 16-bit
divisor value. The value is added to DLD[3:0]/16 to achieve the fractional baud rate divisor. DLD must be
enabled via EFR bit-4 before it can be accessed. See Table 13 below and See ”Section 2.7, Programmable
Baud Rate Generator with Fractional Divisor” on page 13.
DLD[5:4]: Sampling Rate Select
These bits select the data sampling rate. By default, the data sampling rate is 16X. The maximum data rate will

When DLD[6] = 1, this bit selects whether the values written to DLL, DLM and DLD[5:0] will be for the Transmit
Baud Rate Generator or the Receive Baud Rate Generator. When DLD[6] = 0 (same Baud Rate Generator
used for both TX and RX), this bit must be a logic 0 to properly write to the appropriate DLL, DLM and

to indicate detection of the special character. Bit-0 corresponds with the LSB bit of the receive character. If
flow control is set for comparing Xon1, Xoff1 (EFR [1:0]= ‘10’) then flow control and special character work
normally. However, if flow control is set for comparing Xon2, Xoff2 (EFR[1:0]= ‘01’) then flow control works
normally, but Xoff2 will not go to the FIFO, and will generate an Xoff interrupt and a special character
interrupt, if enabled via IER bit-5.
EFR[6]: Auto RTS Flow Control Enable
RTS# output may be used for hardware flow control by setting EFR bit-6 to logic 1. When Auto RTS is
selected, an interrupt will be generated when the receive FIFO is filled to the selected trigger level and RTS deasserts HIGH at the next upper trigger level/hysteresis level. RTS# will return LOW when FIFO data falls below
the next lower trigger level/hysteresis level. The RTS# output must be asserted (LOW) before the auto RTS

Sleep / Power Save Current
(16 and 68 modes)
Test 1: The following inputs remain steady at VCC or GND state to minimize Sleep current: A0-A2, D0-D7, IOR#, IOW#,
CS#. Also, RX input must idle at HIGH while asleep.
For Power-Save, the UART internally isolates all of these inputs (except the modem inputs, 16/68# and Reset pins) therefore eliminating any unnecessary external buffers to keep the inputs steady. SEE”POWER-SAVE FEATURE” ON
