áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART OCTOBER 2003 REV. 4.2.0 FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION The ST16C1450, ST16C1451 series (here on denoted as the 145X) is a universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter (UART). The 145X is foot print compatible to the SSI 73M1550 and SSI 73M2550 UART with one byte FIFO and higher operating speed and lower access time. The 145X provides enhanced UART functions with a modem control interface, independent programmable baud rate generators with clock rates to 1.5 Mbps. Onboard status registers provide the user with error indications and operational status. System interrupts and modem control features may be tailored by external software to meet specific user requirements. An internal loopback capability allows onboard diagnostics. The 145X is available in a 28-pin PLCC/plastic-DIP, 48-pin TQFP packages. The Baud rate generator can be configured for either crystal or external clock input with the exception of the 28 pin 1451 package. An external clock must be provided for the 28 pin 1451 package. Each package type, with the exception of the 28 pin 1450, provides a buffered reset output that can be controlled through user software. The 145X is fabricated in an advanced CMOS process to achieve low drain power and high speed requirements. The ST16C145X is not compatible with the industry standard 16450 and will not work with the standard serial port driver in MS Windows (see pages 15-16 for details). For a MS Windows compatible UART, see the ST16C450. • Pin and functionally compatible to SSI 73M1550/ 2550 • 1 byte Transmit FIFO (THR) • 1 byte Receive FIFO with error tags (RHR) • Four levels of prioritized interrupts • Modem Control Signals (CTS#, RTS#, DSR#, DTR#, RI#, CD#) • Programmable character lengths (5, 6, 7, 8) with even, odd or no parity • Crystal or external clock input (except 28 pin ST16C1451, external clock only) • 1.5 Mbps Transmit/Receive operation (24 MHz) with programmable clock control • Power Down Mode (50 uA at 3.3 V, 200 uA at 5 V) • Software controllable reset output • 2.97 to 5.5 Volt operation APPLICATIONS • Battery Operated Electronics • Internet Appliances • Handheld Terminal • Personal Digital Assistants • Cellular Phones DataPort FIGURE 1.

Pin type: I=Input, O=Output, I/O= Input/output, OD=Output Open Drain. 1.0 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The ST16C145X provides serial asynchronous receive data synchronization, parallel-to-serial and serial-toparallel 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 in digital data systems. Synchronization for the serial data stream is accomplished by adding start and stops bits to the transmit data to form a data character (character orientated protocol). Data integrity is ensured by attaching a parity bit to the data character. The parity bit is checked by the receiver for any transmission bit errors. The 145X is capable of operation up to 1.5 Mbps with a 24 MHz crystal or external clock input with a 16X sampling clock (at VCC = 5.0V). With a crystal of 14.7456 MHz and through a software option, the user can select data rates up to 921.6 Kbps. 2.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS 2.1 Internal Registers The 145X has a set of enhanced 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), and a user accessible scractchpad register (SPR). All the register functions are discussed in full detail later in “Section 3.0, UART INTERNAL REGISTERS” on page 13. 7 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART 2.2 REV. 4.2.0 Crystal Oscillator or External Clock The 145X includes an on-chip oscillator (XTAL1 and XTAL2). The crystal oscillator provides the system clock to the Baud Rate Generators (BRG) 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 2.3, Programmable Baud Rate Generator” on page 8. 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 (see Figure 4). Alternatively, an external clock can be connected to the XTAL1 pin to clock the internal baud rate generator for standard or custom rates. Typical oscillator connections are shown in Figure 4. For further reading on oscillator circuit please see application note DAN108 on EXAR’s web site. FIGURE 4. TYPICAL OSCILLATOR CONNECTIONS XTAL1 XTAL2 R2 500K - 1M Y1 2.3 C1 C2 22-47pF 22-47pF R1 0-120 (Optional) 1.8432 MHz to 24 MHz Programmable Baud Rate Generator The UART has its own Baud Rate Generator (BRG). The BRG divides the input crystal or external clock by a programmable divisor between 1 and (2 16 -1) to obtain a 16X sampling clock of the serial data rate. The sampling clock is used by the transmitter for data bit shifting and receiver for data sampling. The BRG divisor (DLL and DLM registers) defaults to a random value upon power up or a reset. Therefore, the BRG must be programmed during initialization to the operating data rate. Programming the Baud Rate Generator Registers DLM and DLL provides the capability of selecting the operating data rate. Table 1 shows the standard data rates available with a 14.7456 MHz crystal or external clock at 16X clock rate. When using a non-standard data rate crystal or external clock, the divisor value can be calculated for DLL/DLM with the following equation. divisor (decimal) = (XTAL1 clock frequency) / (serial data rate x 16) 8 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART REV. 4.2.0 TABLE 1: TYPICAL DATA RATES WITH A 14.7456 MHZ CRYSTAL OR EXTERNAL CLOCK OUTPUT Data Rate DIVISOR FOR 16x Clock (Decimal) DIVISOR FOR 16x Clock (HEX) DLM PROGRAM VALUE (HEX) DLL PROGRAM VALUE (HEX) DATA RATE ERROR (%) 400 2304 900 09 00 0 2400 384 180 01 80 0 4800 192 C0 00 C0 0 9600 96 60 00 60 0 19.2k 48 30 00 30 0 38.4k 24 18 00 18 0 76.8k 12 0C 00 0C 0 153.6k 6 06 00 06 0 230.4k 4 04 00 04 0 460.8k 2 02 00 02 0 921.6k 1 01 00 01 0 2.4 Transmitter The transmitter section comprises of an 8-bit Transmit Shift Register (TSR) and 16 bytes of FIFO which includes a byte-wide Transmit Holding Register (THR). TSR shifts out every data bit with the 16X internal clock. A bit time is 16 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). 2.4.1 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 16 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. 2.4.2 Transmitter Operation 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. 9 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART REV. 4.2.0 FIGURE 5.

The RSR uses the 16X clock 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 clock rate. After 8 clocks 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 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 characterThe RHR interrupt is enabled by IER bit-0. 2.5.1 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. When there is data in the RHR register, the 3 error tags in LSR register (bits 2-4) indicates if there are any errors associated with that byte. 10 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART REV. 4.2.0 FIGURE 6.

In addition the 145X supports some enhanced features not available for the ST16C450. These features are enabled by IER bit-5 and include a software controllable (SOFT) reset, power down feature and FIFO monitoring bits. 2.6.1 Soft Reset Soft resets are useful when the user desires the capability of resetting an externally connected device only. MCR bit-2 can be used to initiate a SOFT reset at the RST output pin. This does not reset the 145X (only the RESET input pin can reset the 145X). Soft resets from MCR bit-2 are “ORed” with the RESET input pin. Therefore both reset types will be seen at the RST output pin. 2.6.2 Power Down Mode The power down feature (controlled by MCR bit-7) provides the user with the capability to conserve power when the package is not in actual use without destroying internal register configuration data. This allows quick turnarounds from power down to normal operation. 2.7 Internal Loopback The 145X 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 7 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 at logic 1 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 to a logic 1 during loopback test else upon exiting the loopback test the UART may detect and report a false “break” signal. 11 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART REV. 4.2.0 FIGURE 7.

These interrupts are reported in the Interrupt Status Register (ISR). IER[0]: RHR Interrupt Enable The receive data ready interrupt will be issued when RHR has a data character. • 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 is empty. If the THR is empty when this bit is enabled, an interrupt will be generated. Note that this interrupt does not behave in the same manner as the industry standard 16C550. See “Interrupt Clearing:” on page 16. • 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 the RHR. • 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. IER[4]: Reserved IER[5]: Special Mode Enable • Logic 0 = Disable special mode functions (default). • Logic 1 = Enable special mode functions in addition to basic ST16C1450 functions. Enables ISR bits 4-5 (TXRDY/RXRDY), MCR bit-2 (soft reset) and MCR bit-7 (power down) functions. IER[7:6]: Reserved 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 4, shows the data values (bits 0-3) for the interrupt priority levels and the interrupt sources associated with each of these interrupt levels. 15 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART 4.4.1 REV. 4.2.0 Interrupt Generation: • LSR is by any of the LSR bits 1, 2, 3 and 4. • RXRDY is by received data in RHR. • TXRDY is by THR empty. • MSR is by any of the MSR bits 0, 1, 2 and 3. 4.4.2 Interrupt Clearing: • LSR interrupt is cleared by a read to the LSR register (but flags and tags not cleared until character(s) that generated the interrupt(s) has been emptied or cleared from RHR). • RXRDY interrupt is cleared by reading RHR. • TXRDY interrupt is cleared by a read to the ISR register AND disabling the TXRDY interrupt (set IER bit-1 = 0), or by loading data into the TX FIFO. • MSR interrupt is cleared by a read to the MSR register. ] TABLE 4: INTERRUPT SOURCE AND PRIORITY LEVEL PRIORITY LEVEL ISR REGISTER STATUS BITS SOURCE OF INTERRUPT BIT-3 BIT-2 BIT-1 BIT-0 1 0 1 1 0 LSR (Receiver Line Status Register) 2 0 1 0 0 RXRDY (Received Data Ready) 3 0 0 1 0 TXRDY (Transmit Ready) 4 0 0 0 0 MSR (Modem Status Register) - 0 0 0 1 None (default) ISR[0]: Interrupt Status • Logic 0 = An interrupt is pending and the ISR contents may be used as a pointer to the appropriate interrupt service routine. • Logic 1 = No interrupt pending (default condition). ISR[3:1]: Interrupt Status These bits indicate the source for a pending interrupt at interrupt priority levels (See Interrupt Source Table 4). ISR[7:4]: Reserved 4.5 Line Control Register (LCR) - Read/Write The Line Control Register is used to specify the asynchronous data communication format. The word or character length, the number of stop bits, and the parity are selected by writing the appropriate bits in this register. 16 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART REV. 4.2.0 LCR[1:0]: TX and RX Word Length Select These two bits specify the word length to be transmitted or received.

LENGTH STOP BIT LENGTH (BIT TIME(S)) 0 5,6,7,8 1 (default) 1 5 1-1/2 1 6,7,8 2 BIT-2 WORD 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 5 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. 17 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART REV. 4.2.0 LCR[5]: TX and RX Parity Select If the parity bit is enabled, LCR BIT-5 selects the forced parity format. • LCR[5] = logic 0, parity is not forced (default). • 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.

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. LCR[7]: Baud Rate Divisors Enable Baud rate generator divisor (DLL/DLM) enable. • Logic 0 = Data registers are selected (default). • Logic 1 = Divisor latch registers are selected. 4.6 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 to a logic 1 (default). • Logic 1 = Force DTR# output to a logic 0. MCR[1]: RTS# Output The RTS# 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 RTS# output to a logic 1 (default). • Logic 1 = Force RTS# output to a logic 0. 18 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART REV. 4.2.0 MCR[2]: OP1# Output/Soft Reset OP1# is not available as an output pin on the 145X. 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. • Logic 0 = OP1# output (RI# input) is at logic 1 (default). • Logic 1 = OP1# output (RI# input) is at logic 0. In normal operation, this bit is associated with the RST (buffered reset) output pin. The logical state of the RST pin will follow exactly the logical state of the RESET pin. When IER bit-5 = 1, soft resets from MCR bit-2 are ORed with the state of the RESET input pin. Therefore both reset types will be seen at the RST pin. Note that asserting MCR bit-2 does not reset the 145X. • Logic 0 = The RST output pin is a logic 0 (default). • Logic 1 = The RST output pin is a logic 1. MCR[3]: OP2# or INT Output Enable When not in Internal Loopback Mode: • Logic 0 = INT output is three-state (default). • Logic 1 = INT output is active high. OP2# is not available as an output pin on the 145X. 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 CD# interface signal. • Logic 0 = OP2# output (CD# input) is a logic 1 (default). • Logic 1 = OP2# output (CD# input) is a logic 0. MCR[4]: Internal Loopback Enable • Logic 0 = Disable loopback mode (default). • Logic 1 = Enable local loopback mode, see loopback section and Figure 7. MCR[6:5]: Reserved MCR[7]: Power Down Enable This bit can only be accessed when IER bit-5 = 1. • Logic 0 = Normal mode (default). • Logic 1 = Power down mode. See “Power Down Mode” on page 11. 4.7 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 set to a logic 1, an LSR interrupt will be generated when the character that is in the RHR has an error (parity, framing, overrun, break). LSR[0]: Receive Data Ready Indicator • Logic 0 = No data in receive holding register (default). • Logic 1 = Data has been received and is saved in the receive holding register. LSR[1]: Receiver Overrun Error 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 there is data in the RHR. 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 RHR, therefore the data in the RHR is not corrupted by the error. 19 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART REV. 4.2.0 LSR[2]: Receive Data Parity Error Tag • Logic 0 = No parity error (default). • Logic 1 = Parity error. The received 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 received 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 Error Tag • Logic 0 = No break condition (default). • Logic 1 = The receiver received a break signal (RX was a logic 0 for at least one character frame time). 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 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. 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. LSR[7]: Reserved 4.8 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. 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 a logic 0 to a logic 1, 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 20 áç ST16C1450/51 2.97V TO 5.5V UART REV. 4.2.0 CTS# (active high, logical 1). Normally this bit is the compliment of the CTS# input. In the loopback mode, this bit is equivalent to bit-1 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 DSR# (active high, logical 1). Normally this bit is the compliment of the DSR# input. In the loopback mode, this bit is equivalent to bit-0 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 RI# (active high, logical 1). Normally this bit is the compliment 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 CD# (active high, logical 1). Normally this bit is the compliment 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. 4.9 Scratch Pad Register (SPR) - Read/Write This is a 8-bit general purpose register for the user to store temporary data. The content of this register is preserved during sleep mode but becomes 0xFF (default) after a reset or a power off-on cycle.
