See interrupt section for more details. This interrupt output may be set to normal active high or active high open source (see MCR bit-5) to provide wire-OR capability by connecting a 1k to 10k ohms resistor between this pin and ground. AS# 28 24 I Address Strobe input (active low) In the Intel bus mode, the leading-edge transition of AS# latches the chip selects (CS0, CS1, CS2#) and the address lines A0, A1 and A2. This input is used when the address lines are not stable for the duration of a read or write operation. In devices with top mark date code of "I2 YYWW" and newer, the address bus is latched even if this input is not used. These devices feature a ’0 ns’ address hold time.

Its inputs are 5V tolerant to facilitate interconnection to transceiver devices of RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485. The 650A is software compatible to the industry standard 16C550 with some additional enhanced features. The 650A provides serial asynchronous receive data synchronization, parallel-to-serial data conversion for the transmitter section and serial-to-parallel data conversions for receiver section. 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 transmitted 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 electronic circuitry to provide all these functions is fairly complex especially when manufactured on a single integrated silicon chip. The ST16C650A represents such an integration with greatly enhanced features. The 650A is fabricated with an advanced CMOS process. The 650A supports standard 8-bit Intel or PC bus interfaces through an input selection pin (SEL input pin). The Intel bus uses the standard read and write signals for all bus transactions. The PC bus mode associates with the PC ISA bus and follow the industry standard PC definitions for COM 1-4 serial port addresses. The 650A includes on-board chip select decode logic and selection for the proper interrupt request. This eliminates the need for an external logic array device. The 650A has 32-bytes each of transmit and receive FIFOs, automatic RTS/CTS hardware flow control with hysteresis, automatic Xon/Xoff and special character software flow control, selectable transmit and receive FIFO trigger levels, wireless infrared encoder and decoder (IrDA ver. 1.0), programmable baud rate generator with a prescaler of divide by 1 or 4, and data rates up to 3.125 Mbps with a 16X sampling clock rate. The 650A is an upward solution that provides 32 bytes of transmit and receive FIFO memory, instead of 16 bytes provided in the 16C550, or none in the 16C450. The 650A is designed to work with high speed communication devices, that require fast data processing time. Increased performance is realized in the 650A by the larger transmit and receive FIFOs. This allows the external processor to handle more networking tasks within a given time. For example, the standard ST16C550 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 650A, the data buffer will not require unloading/loading for 3.05 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 4 selectable levels of FIFO trigger interrupt and automatic hardware/software flow control 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 rich feature set of the 650A is available through internal registers. Automatic hardware/software flow control, selectable transmit and receive FIFO trigger levels, selectable TX and RX baud rates, infrared encoder/decoder interface, modem interface controls, and a sleep mode are all standard features. In the PC mode, two tri-state interrupt lines (IRQB and IRQC) and one selectable open source interrupt output (IRQA) are available. The open source interrupt scheme allows multiple interrupts to be combined in a “wire-OR” operation, thus reducing the number of interrupt lines in larger systems. Following a power on reset or an external reset, the 650A is software compatible with previous generation of UARTs, 16C450, 16C550 and ST16C580. 7 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 2.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS 2.1 Host Data Bus Interface The host interface is 8 data bits wide with 3 address lines and control signals to execute bus read and write transactions. The 650A supports 2 type of host interfaces: Intel and PC mode. The Intel bus interface is selected by connecting SEL to a logic 1. The Intel bus interconnections are shown in Figure 3. The special PC mode is selected when SEL is connected to a logic 0. The PC mode interconnections are shown in Figure 4. FIGURE 3.

The selection is made through three input signals: S1, S2 and S3. The selection summary is shown in Table 1. Although the on-chip address decoder was designed for PC applications ranging from 0x278 to 0x3FF, it can fit into an embedded applications by offsetting the address lines to the 650A. An example is shown in Figure 5 where the UART is operating from 0x80F8 to 0x80FF address space. Operating in the PC mode eliminates external address decode components.

Caution: XTAL1 is not 5 volt tolerant. 2.3 Device Reset The RESET input resets the internal registers and the serial interface outputs to their default state (see Figure 13). An active high pulse of longer than 40 ns duration will be required to activate the reset function in the device. 2.4 Device Identification and Revision The ST16C650A provides a Device Identification code and a Device Revision code to distinguish the part from other devices and revisions. To read the identification code from the part, it is required to set the baud rate generator registers DLL and DLM both to 0x00. Now reading the content of the DLM will provide 0x04 for the ST16C650A and reading the content of DLL will provide the revision of the part; for example, a reading of 0x01 means revision A. 2.5 DMA Mode The device does not support direct memory access. The DMA Mode (a legacy term) in this document does not mean “direct memory access” but refers to data block transfer operation. The DMA mode affects the state of the RXRDY# and TXRDY# output pins. The transmit and receive FIFO trigger levels provide additional flexibility to the user for block mode operation. The LSR bits 5-6 provide an indication when the transmitter is empty or has an empty location(s) for more data. The user can optionally operate the transmit and receive FIFO in the DMA mode (FCR bit-3=1). When the transmit and receive FIFO are enabled and the DMA mode is disabled (FCR bit-3 = 0), the 650A is placed in single-character mode for data transmit or receive operation. When DMA mode is enabled (FCR bit-3 = 1), the user takes advantage of block mode operation by loading or unloading the FIFO in a block sequence determined by the programmed trigger level. In this mode, the 650A sets the TXRDY# pin when the transmit FIFO becomes full, and sets the RXRDY# pin when the receive FIFO becomes empty. The following table shows their behavior. Also see Figures 23 through 28. TABLE 2: TXRDY# AND RXRDY# OUTPUTS IN FIFO AND DMA MODE PINS FCR BIT-0=0 (FIFO DISABLED) FCR BIT-0=1 (FIFO ENABLED) FCR BIT-3 = 0 (DMA MODE DISABLED) FCR BIT-3 = 1 (DMA MODE ENABLED) RXRDY# 0 = 1 byte. 1 = no data. 0 = at least 1 byte in FIFO 1 = FIFO empty. 1 to 0 transition when FIFO reaches the trigger level, or timeout occurs. 0 to 1 transition when FIFO empties. TXRDY# 0 = THR empty. 1 = byte in THR. 0 = FIFO empty. 1 = at least 1 byte in FIFO. 0 = FIFO has at least 1 empty location. 1 = FIFO is full. 10 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 2.6 Interrupt The output function of interrupt, INT, output changes according to the operating bus type and various factors. Table 3 summarizes its behavior in Intel and PC mode of operation. Multiple interrupts can be wire-OR’ed. This is accomplished by setting MCR bit-5 to a logic 1 and connecting a 1KΩ to 10KΩ resistor between this pin and ground to provide an acceptable logic 0 level.

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. Caution if external clock is used: XTAL1 input is not 5 Volt tolerant. For programming details, see “Programmable Baud Rate Generator.” FIGURE 6.

Alternatively, an external clock can be connected to the XTAL1 pin to clock the internal baud rate generator for standard or custom rates. Typically, the oscillator connections are shown in Figure 6. For further reading on oscillator circuit please see application note DAN108 on EXAR’s web site. 2.8 Programmable Baud Rate Generator The UART has its own Baud Rate Generator (BRG) with a prescaler for the transmitter. 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 clock output of the prescaler goes to the BRG. The BRG further divides this clock by a programmable divisor between 1 and (216 -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. 12 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 FIGURE 7.

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). 13 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO 2.9.1 REV. 5.0.1 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 a start bit, data bits, parity bit and stop bit(s). The least-significant-bit (Bit-0) is the 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. 2.9.2 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. FIGURE 8.

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 amount of data in the FIFO falls below its programmed trigger level. The transmit empty interrupt is enabled by IER bit-1. The TSR flag (LSR bit-6) is set when TSR/FIFO becomes empty. FIGURE 9.

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 receive FIFO pointer is bumped and the error tags are immediately updated to reflect the status of the data byte in the RHR register. RHR can generate a receive data ready interrupt upon receiving a character or delay until it reaches the FIFO trigger level (XFR bit-3). 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. 2.10.1 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. FIGURE 10.

Receive Data RXFIFO1 2.11 Automatic 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 12): • 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). With the Auto RTS function enabled, the RTS# output pin will not be de-asserted (logic 1) when the receive FIFO reaches the programmed trigger level, but will be de-asserted when the FIFO reaches the next trigger level (See Table 10). The RTS# output pin will be asserted again after the FIFO is unloaded to the next trigger level below the programmed trigger level. However, even under these conditions, the 650A will continue to accept data until the receive FIFO is full if the remote UART transmitter continues to send data. • Enable RTS interrupt through IER bit-6 (after setting EFR bit-4). The UART issues an interrupt when the RTS# pin is de-asserted (logic 1) during Auto RTS flow control mode: ISR bit-5 will be set to logic 1. 2.12 Auto CTS Flow Control Automatic CTS flow control is used to prevent data overrun to the remote receiver FIFO. The CTS# input is monitored to suspend/restart the local transmitter. The auto CTS flow control feature is selected to fit specific application requirement (see Figure 12): • Enable auto CTS flow control using EFR bit-7. With the Auto CTS function enabled, the UART will suspend transmission as soon as the stop bit of the character in the Transmit Shift Register has been shifted out. Transmission is resumed after the CTS# input is re-asserted (logic 0), indicating more data may be sent. • Enable CTS interrupt through IER bit-7 (after setting EFR bit-4). The UART issues an interrupt when the CTS# pin is de-asserted (logic 1) during Auto CTS flow control mode: ISR bit-5 will be set to 1. 16 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 FIGURE 12.

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. 2.13 Auto Xon/Xoff (Software) Flow Control When software flow control is enabled (See Table 12), the 650A compares one or two sequential receive data characters with the programmed Xon or Xoff-1,2 character value(s). If received character(s) (RX) match the programmed values, the 650A 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 values, the 650A will monitor the receive data stream for a match to the Xon-1,2 character value(s). If a match is found, the 650A 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 12) and suspend/resume transmissions. When double 8-bit Xon/Xoff characters are selected, the 650A 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 17 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 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 650A automatically sends an Xoff message (when enabled) via the serial TX output to the remote modem. The 650A 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 programmed trigger level. To clear this condition, the 650A will transmit the programmed Xon-1,2 characters as soon as receive FIFO drops to one trigger level below the programmed trigger level. Table 5 below explains this: TABLE 5: AUTO XON/XOFF (SOFTWARE) FLOW CONTROL RX TRIGGER LEVEL INT PIN ACTIVATION XOFF CHARACTER(S) SENT (CHARACTERS IN RX FIFO) XON CHARACTER(S) SENT (CHARACTERS IN RX FIFO) 8 8 8* 0 16 16 16* 8 24 24 24* 16 28 28 28* 24 * After the trigger level is reached, an xoff character is sent after a short span of time (= time required to send 2 characters); for example, after 2.083ms has elapsed for 9600 baud and 10-bit word length setting. 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 650A 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 a special character. Although the Internal Register Table shows each X-Register 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 Xregisters corresponds with the LSB bit for the receive character. 2.15 Auto RS485 Half-duplex Control The auto RS485 half-duplex direction control changes the behavior of the transmitter when enabled by XFR bit-3. By default, it asserts RTS# (logic 0) output following the last stop bit of the last character that has been transmitted. This helps in turning around the transceiver to receive the remote station’s response. When the host is ready to transmit next polling data packet again, it only has to load data bytes to the transmit FIFO. The transmitter automatically re-asserts RTS# (logic 1) output prior to sending the data. The RS485 half-duplex direction control output polarity can be inverted by enabling XFR bit-5. TABLE 6: RS485 HALF-DUPLEX CONTROL XFR BIT-2 XFR BIT-5 RTS# PIN 0 X RS485 Half-Duplex control disabled 1 0 Logic 1 = TX Logic 0 = RX 1 1 Logic 1 = RX Logic 0 = TX 18 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 2.16 Infrared Mode The 650A UART includes the infrared encoder and decoder compatible to the IrDA (Infrared Data Association) version 1.0. The infrared mode can be enabled by setting MCR bit-6 to a ‘1’. In the infrared mode, the user can choose to send/receive data either half-duplex or full-duplex. The half-duplex mode is chosen by setting bit-0 of XFR register to a ‘1’. This prevents echoed data from reaching the receiver. When the infrared feature is enabled, the transmit data outputs, TX, idles at logic zero level. Likewise, the RX input assumes an idle level of logic zero, see Figure 13. The IrDA standard defines the infrared encoder sends out a 3/16 of a bit wide HIGH-pulse for each “0” bit in the transmit data stream. This signal encoding reduces the on-time of the infrared LED, hence reduces the power consumption. See Figure 13 below. The 650A has an additional feature to allow user to vary the transmit pulse width further reducing power consumption of the system where application permits (see IRPW register for details). The wireless infrared decoder receives the input pulse from the infrared sensing diode on RX pin. Each time it senses a light pulse, it returns a logic 0 to the data bit stream. The 650A also includes another feature inversion of the IR pulse (XFR register bit-1), where a LOW IR pulse in the receive data stream is recognized as a ’0’ bit. FIGURE 13.

A special sleep mode is included to further reduce power consumption when the chip is not being used. All of these conditions must be satisfied for the 650A to enter sleep mode: ■ ■ ■ ■ no interrupts pending 650A (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 at a logic 1 The 650A 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 650A resumes normal operation by any of the following: ■ ■ ■ a receive data start bit transition (logic 1 to 0) 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 sleep mode is enabled and the 650A is awakened by one of the conditions described above, an interrupt is issued by the 650A to signal to the CPU that it is awake. The lower nibble of the interrupt source register (ISR) will read a value of 0x1 for this interrupt and reading the ISR clears this interrupt. Since the same value (0x1) is also used to indicate no pending interrupt, users should exercise caution while using the sleep mode. Once awakened, the 650A will return to the sleep mode automatically after any other interrupting condition (the true cause of waking up the 650A) has been serviced. If the 650A 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 an interrupt is pending. The 650A will stay in the sleep mode of operation until it is disabled by setting IER bit-4 to a logic 0. 20 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 2.18 Internal Loopback The 650A 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 14 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. Also, Auto RTS/CTS is not supported during internal loopback. FIGURE 14.

These interrupts are reported in the Interrupt Status Register (ISR) register. 4.3.1 IER versus Receive FIFO Interrupt Mode Operation When the receive FIFO (FCR bit-0 = a logic 1) and receive interrupts (IER bit-0 = logic 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 programmed trigger level. It will be cleared when the FIFO drops below the programmed 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. 24 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 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 ST16C650A 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 bits 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 programmed 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 programmed 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 Holding Register empty interrupt (default). • Logic 1 = Enable Transmit Holding Register empty interrupt. IER[2]: Receive Line Status Interrupt Enable Any change of state of the LSR register bits 1, 2, 3 or 4 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 the character has been received. LSR bits 2-4 generate an interrupt either when the character with errors is next to be read out of the FIFO (XFR[3] = 0) or when the received chracter is received (XFR[3] = 1). • 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.

SEE”AUTO XON/XOFF (SOFTWARE) FLOW CONTROL” ON PAGE 17. IER[6]: RTS# Output Interrupt Enable (requires EFR bit-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. 25 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 IER[7]: CTS# Input Interrupt Enable (requires EFR bit-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. 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 queue up for next service. No other interrupts are acknowledged until the pending interrupt is serviced. The Interrupt Source Table, Table 9, shows the data values (bit 0-5) for the six prioritized interrupt 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 and TX FIFO empty (or transmitter empty in auto RS485 control). • MSR is by any of the MSR bits, 0, 1, 2 and 3. • Receive Xoff/Special character is by detection of an Xoff or Special character. • CTS# is when its 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. • Wake-up Indicator: when the UART comes out of sleep mode. 4.4.2 Interrupt Clearing: • LSR interrupt is cleared by a read to the LSR register. • RXRDY is cleared by reading data until FIFO falls below the trigger level. • RXRDY Time-out interrupt is cleared by reading RHR. • TXRDY interrupt is cleared by a read to the ISR register or writing to THR. • MSR interrupt is cleared by a read to the MSR register. • Xoff interrupt is cleared by a read to ISR or when Xon character(s) is received. • Special character interrupt is cleared by a read to ISR or after the next character is received. • RTS# and CTS# status change interrupts are cleared by a read to the MSR register. • Wake-up Indicator is cleared by a read to the ISR register. 26 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 ] TABLE 9: INTERRUPT SOURCE AND PRIORITY LEVEL PRIORITY ISR REGISTER STATUS BITS SOURCE OF INTERRUPT LEVEL BIT-5 BIT-4 BIT-3 BIT-2 BIT-1 BIT-0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 LSR (Receiver Line Status Register) 2 0 0 1 1 0 0 RXRDY (Receive Data Time-out) 3 0 0 0 1 0 0 RXRDY (Received Data Ready) 4 0 0 0 0 1 0 TXRDY (Transmit Ready) 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 MSR (Modem Status Register) 6 0 1 0 0 0 0 RXRDY (Received Xoff or Special character) 7 1 0 0 0 0 0 CTS#, RTS# change of state - 0 0 0 0 0 1 None (default) or wake-up indicator 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) or the device has come out of sleep mode. ISR[3:1]: Interrupt Status These bits indicate the source for a pending interrupt at interrupt priority levels 1, 2, 3 and 4 (See Interrupt Source Table 9). ISR[5:4]: Interrupt Status These bits are enabled when EFR bit-4 is set to a logic 1. ISR bit-4 indicates that the receiver detected a data match of the Xoff character(s). Note that once set to a logic 1, the ISR bit-4 will stay a logic 1 until a Xon character is received. ISR bit-5 indicates that CTS# or RTS# has changed state. ISR[7:6]: FIFO Enable Status These bits are set to a logic 0 when the FIFOs are disabled. They are set to a logic 1 when the FIFOs are enabled. 4.5 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 select the DMA mode. The DMA, and FIFO modes 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. 27 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 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]: DMA Mode Select Controls the behavior of the TXRDY# and RXRDY# pins. SEE”DMA MODE” ON PAGE 10. • Logic 0 = DMA Mode disabled (default). • Logic 1 = DMA Mode enabled. FCR[5:4]: Transmit FIFO Trigger Select (logic 0 = default, TX trigger level = one) These 2 bits set the trigger level for the transmit FIFO interrupt. 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 10 below shows the selections. EFR bit-4 must be set to ‘1’ before these bits can be accessed. FCR[7:6]: Receive FIFO Trigger Select (logic 0 = default, RX trigger level =1). These 2 bits are used to set the trigger level for the receiver FIFO interrupt. Table 10 shows the complete selections..

The word or character length, the number of stop bits, and the parity are selected by writing the appropriate bits in this register.

The parity bit is a simple way used in communications for data integrity check. See Table 11 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 the 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.

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. 29 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 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 if LCR ≠ 0xBF. 4.7 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# Pins The DTR# pin is a modem control output. If the modem interface is not used, this output may be used for general purpose. • Logic 0 = Force DTR# output to a logic 1 (default). • Logic 1 = Force DTR# output to a logic 0. MCR[1]: RTS# Pins The RTS# pin is a modem control output and may be used for automatic hardware flow control enabled by EFR bit-6. If the modem interface is not used, this output may be used for general purpose. • Logic 0 = Force RTS# output to a logic 1 (default). • Logic 1 = Force RTS# output to a logic 0. MCR[2]: OP1# Output OP1# is a general purpose output. • Logic 0 = OP1# output is at logic 1 (default). • Logic 1 = OP1# output is at logic 0 MCR[3]: OP2# or IRQn Enable during PC Mode OP2# is a general purpose output available during the Intel bus interface mode of operation. In the PC bus mode, it enables the IRQn operation. See PC Mode section. During Intel Bus Mode Operation: • Logic 0 = OP2# output is at logic 1 (default). • Logic 1 = OP2# output is at logic 0. During PC Mode Operation: • Logic 0 = Disable IRQn operation (default). • Logic 1 = Enable IRQn operation. MCR[4]: Internal Loopback Enable • Logic 0 = Disable loopback mode (default). • Logic 1 = Enable local loopback mode, see loopback section and Figure 14. MCR[5]: Active/Three-state Interrupt Output Enable • Logic 0 = Enable active or three-state interrupt output (default). • Logic 1 = Enable open source interrupt output mode. See Table 3 for detailed information. 30 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 MCR[6]: Infrared Encoder/Decoder Enable • 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 infrared TX output is at logic 0 during idle condition. The infrared receive data input polarity is also logic 0, however, it may be inverted when using an infrared module that provides inverted signal output. Use register XFR bit-1 to invert the receive input signal level going to the infrared decoder. Also see XFR bit-0 for half-duplex operation where the receiver can be disabled while transmitting. MCR[7]: Clock Prescaler Select • 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. LSR[0]: Receive Data Ready Indicator • Logic 0 = No data in receive holding register or RX FIFO (default). • Logic 1 = Data has been received and is saved in the receive holding register or RX 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. If IER bit-2 is enabled, an interrupt is generated immediately. LSR[2]: Receive Data Parity Error Flag • 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. If IER bit-2 is enabled, an interrupt is generated when the character is available in the RHR (XFR[3] = 0) or when the character is received (XFR[3] = 1). LSR[3]: Receive Data Framing Error Flag • 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. If IER bit-2 is enabled, an interrupt is generated when the character is available in the RHR (XFR[3] = 0) or when the character is received (XFR[3] = 1). LSR[4]: Receive Break Flag • 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). In the FIFO mode, only one break character is loaded into the FIFO. The break indication is cleared when LSR is read, but the RX input may still be a logic 0. If IER bit-2 is enabled, an interrupt is generated when the character is available in the RHR (XFR[3] = 0) or when the character is received (XFR[3] = 1). 31 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 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]: Transmit Shift Register Empty Flag This bit is the Transmit Shift Register Empty indicator. 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 one 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 the FIFO. 4.9 Extra Feature Register (XFR) - Write Only This register provides additional features and controls to the ST16C650A UART. XFR [0]: Half-duplex Infrared Mode Enable When infrared mode is enabled, MCR bit-6=1, this bit selects the infrared mode to operate in normal full-duplex or half-duplex mode. This half-duplex mode feature is very desirable when the UART does not want to “see” its own data that may be reflected. • Logic 0 = Disable. The receiver is active during data transmission. • Logic 1 = Enable half-duplex operation. The infrared receiver is disabled during data transmission. XFR [1]: Invert Received Infrared Input Signal This bit controls the input polarity of the infrared data. • Logic 0 = Infrared data input idles at logic 0 (default). • Logic 1 = Infrared data idles at logic 1, pulses low. XFR [2]: Auto RS485 Enable This bit enables the auto RS485 direction control feature for half-duplex operation with RS-485 transceiver. The feature should only be enabled when normal RTS# output and auto RTS flow control are not used. • Logic 0 = Disable the auto RS485 direction control function. This allows normal RTS# output or auto RTS flow control operation. • Logic 1 = Enable the auto RS485 direction function. The RTS# output will automatically change its logic state to control the RS-485 transceiver from sending and receiving. SEE”AUTO RS485 HALF-DUPLEX CONTROL” ON PAGE 18. XFR [3]: LSR Bad Data Interrupt Operation When the LSR interrupt is enabled, IER bit-2=1, this bit selects when the interrupt pin (INT) will report received character error: parity, framing or break. Use this feature only if application needs immediate knowledge when a bad character is received. • Logic 0 = Received data error interrupt (LSR interrupt) will be generated when the bad character is available for reading from the FIFO. This is compatible to industry standard 16C550 operation. • Logic 1 = Received data error interrupt (LSR interrupt) is generated immediately upon receipt of the bad character. It will be reset when LSR is read. If user does not read the bad character out, another bad character interrupt is generated when it’s available for reading from the FIFO. 32 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 XFR [4]: Xon-Any Enable This bit enables and disables the Xon-Any function when Xon/Xoff software flow control is enabled. • Logic 0 = Disable the Xon-Any function. • Logic 1 = Enable the Xon-Any function. The receiver will use any received character as an Xon character and resume data transmission. XFR [5]: Invert Auto RS-485 Control Output When Auto RS485 feature is enabled, XFR[2]=1, RTS# output automatically changes its logic state to control the RS-485 transceiver. • Logic 0 = During auto RS-485, RTS# control output signal to the transceiver is logic 1 for transmit and logic 0 for receive. • Logic 1 = The RTS# output control signal to the transceiver is logic 0 for transmit and logic 1 for receive. User must assert RTS# for operation to take effect. XFR [7:6]: Reserved 4.10 Modem Status Register (MSR) - Read Only This register provides the current state of the modem interface signals, or other peripheral device that the UART is connected. 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 as general purpose inputs/outputs 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 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 logic 1 on the CTS# pin will stop UART transmitter as soon as the current character has finished transmission, and a logic 0 will resume data transmission. Normally MSR bit-4 bit is the compliment 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 DSR# (active high, logical 1). Normally this bit is the compliment 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. 33 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 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. 4.11 Infrared Transmit Pulse Width Control Register (IRPW) - Write Only The IRPW register allows the user to program the encoder’s pulse width. This cuts the LED on-time, hence, reducing power consumption. IRPW [7:0]: Pulse width control A 0x00 value (default) will set the pulse width to normal width of 3/16 of the data bit rate. The programmable infrared pulse width can be calculated using the following equation: • Infrared pulse width (PW) = Crystal clock period x ‘N’, where ‘N’ is the value in IRPW from 1 to 255. Examples: Crystal frequency = 14.7456MHz (clock period of 67.82ns) PW = 67.82 x ‘N’ or ranges from 67.82ns to 17.29ms Caution: Never allow PW to exceed the operating data rate bit period, else the encoder stops. 4.12 Scratch Pad Register (SPR) This is an 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. 4.13 Baud Rate Generator Divisors (DLL and DLM) - Read/Write The Baud Rate Generator (BRG) is a 16-bit counter that generates the data rate for the transmitter. The rate is programmed through registers DLL and DLM which are only accessible when LCR bit-7 is set to ‘1’. See Programmable Baud Rate Generator section for more details. The concatenation of the contents of DLM and DLL gives the 16-bit divisor value which is used to calculate the baud rate: • Baud Rate = (Clock Frequency / 16) / Divisor Also see MCR bit-7 and Table 4. 4.14 Device Identification Register (DVID) - Read Only This register contains the device ID (0x04 for ST16C650A). Prior to reading this register, DLL and DLM should be set to 0x00. 4.15 Device Revision Register (DREV) - Read Only This register contains the device revision information. For example, 0x01 means revision A. Prior to reading this register, DLL and DLM should be set to 0x00. 4.16 Enhanced Feature Register (EFR) Enhanced features are enabled or disabled using this register. Bit 0-3 provide single or dual consecutive character software flow control selection (see Table 12). When the Xon1 and Xon2 and Xoff1 and Xoff2 modes are selected, the double 8-bit words are concatenated into two sequential characters. Caution: note that whenever changing the TX or RX flow control bits, always reset all bits back to logic 0 (disable) before programming a new setting. 34 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 EFR[3:0]: Software Flow Control Select Combinations of software flow control can be selected by programming these bits.

This bit enables IER bits 4-7, ISR bits 4-5, FCR bits 4-5, MCR bits 5-7, XFR bits 0-7 and IRPW bits 0-7 to be modified. After modifying any enhanced bits, EFR bit-4 can be set to a logic 0 to latch the new values. This feature prevents legacy software from altering or overwriting the enhanced functions once set. Normally, it is recommended to leave it enabled, logic 1. • Logic 0 = modification disable/latch enhanced features. IER bits 4-7, ISR bits 4-5, FCR bits 4-5, MCR bits 57, XFR bits 0-7 and IRPW bits 0-7 are saved to retain the user settings. After a reset, the IER bits 4-7, ISR bits 4-5, FCR bits 4-5, MCR bits 5-7, XFR bits 0-7 and IRPW bits 0-7 are set to a logic 0 to be compatible with ST16C550 mode. (default). • Logic 1 = Enables the above-mentioned register bits to be modified by the user. EFR[5]: Special Character Detect Enable • Logic 0 = Special Character Detect Disabled. (default) • Logic 1 = Special Character Detect Enabled. The UART compares each incoming receive character with data in Xoff-2 register. If a match exists, the received data will be transferred to FIFO and ISR bit-4 will be set to indicate detection of the special character. Bit-0 corresponds with the LSB bit for 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. 35 xr ST16C650A 2.90V TO 5.5V UART WITH 32-BYTE FIFO REV. 5.0.1 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 (if IER bit-6 = 1) when the receive FIFO is filled to the programmed trigger level and RTS de-asserts to a logic 1 at the next upper trigger level. RTS# will return to a logic 0 when FIFO data falls below the next lower trigger level. The RTS# output must be asserted (logic 0) before the auto RTS can take effect. RTS# pin will function as a general purpose output when hardware flow control is disabled. • Logic 0 = Automatic RTS flow control is disabled. (default) • Logic 1 = Enable Automatic RTS flow control. EFR[7]: Auto CTS Flow Control Enable Automatic CTS Flow Control. • Logic 0 = Automatic CTS flow control is disabled. (default) • Logic 1 = Enable Automatic CTS flow control. Data transmission stops when CTS# input de-asserts to logic 1. Data transmission resumes when CTS# input returns to a logic 0. 4.17 Software Flow Control Registers (XOFF1, XOFF2, XON1, XON2) - Read/Write These registers are used as the programmable software flow control characters xoff1, xoff2, xon1, and xon2.
