Its features set is compatible to the XR16M2550 and XR16V2550 devices but offers Intel or Motorola data bus interface and PowerSave to isolate the data bus interface during Sleep mode. Hence, the M2551 adds 3 more inputs: 16/68#, PwrSave and CLKSEL pins. Each UART is independently controlled by its own set of device configuration registers. The configuration registers set is 16550 UART compatible for control status and data transfer. Additionally, each UART channel has automatic RTS/CTS hardware flow control, automatic Xon/Xoff and special character software flow control, infrared encoder and decoder (IrDA ver 1.0), and programmable fractional baud rate generator with a prescaler of divide by 1 or 4. The XR16M2551 can operate from 1.62V to 3.63V. The M2551 is fabricated with an advanced CMOS process. Enhanced Features The M2551 DUART provides a solution that supports 16 bytes of transmit and receive FIFO memory. The M2551 is designed to work with low supply voltage and high performance data communication systems, that require fast data processing time. In addition, the selectable FIFO trigger level interrupt and automatic hardware/software flow control is uniquely provided for good data throughput performance especially when operating in a multi-channel system. Data Bus Interface, Intel or Motorola Type The M2551 provides a single host interface for the 2 UARTs and supports Intel or Motorola microprocessor (CPU) data bus interface. The Intel bus compatible interface allows direct interconnect to Intel compatible type of CPUs using IOR#, IOW# and CSA# or CSB# inputs for data bus operation. The Motorola bus compatible interface instead uses the R/W#, CS# and A3 signals for data bus transactions. Few data bus interface signals change their functions depending on user’s selection, see pin description for details. The Intel and Motorola bus interface selection is made through the 16/68# pin. Data Rate The M2551 is capable of operation up to 4 Mbps at 3.3V with 16X internal sampling clock rate, 8 Mbps at 3.3V with 8X sampling clock rate and 16 Mbps at 3.3V with 4X sampling clock rate. The device can operate with an external 24 MHz crystal on pins XTAL1 and XTAL2, or external clock source of up to 64 MHz on XTAL1 pin. With a typical crystal of 14.7456 MHz and through a software option, the user can set the prescaler bit for data rates of up to 3.68 Mbps. The rich feature set of the M2551 is available through the internal registers. Automatic hardware/software flow control, selectable transmit and receive FIFO trigger levels, programmable TX and RX baud rates, infrared encoder/decoder interface, modem interface controls, and a sleep mode are all standard features. 7 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE REV. 1.0.2 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 M2551 data interface supports the Intel compatible types of CPUs and it is compatible to the industry standard 16C550 UART. No clock (oscillator nor external clock) is required to operate a data bus transaction. Each bus cycle is asynchronous using CSA#/CSB#, IOR# and IOW# or CS#, R/W# and A3 inputs. Both UART channels share the same data bus for host operations. A typical data bus interconnection for Intel and Motorola mode is shown in Figure 3. FIGURE 3.

An active high pulse of longer than 40 ns duration will be required to activate the reset function in the device. 8 XR16M2551 REV. 1.0.2 2.3 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE Device Identification and Revision The XR16M2551 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 (DLD = 0xXX). Now reading the content of the DVID will provide 0x02 for the XR16M2551 and reading the content of DREV will provide the revision of the part; for example, a reading of 0x01 means revision A. 2.4 Channel A and B Selection The UART provides the user with the capability to bi-directionally transfer information between an external CPU and an external serial communication device. During Intel Bus Mode (16/68# pin connected to VCC), a LOW on chip select pins, CSA# or CSB#, allows the user to select UART channel A or B to configure, send transmit data and/or unload receive data to/from the UART. Selecting both UARTs can be useful during power up initialization to write to the same internal registers, but do not attempt to read from both UARTs simultaneously. Individual channel select functions are shown in Table 1. TABLE 1: CHANNEL A AND B SELECT IN 16 MODE CSA# CSB# FUNCTION 1 1 UART de-selected 0 1 Channel A selected 1 0 Channel B selected 0 0 Channel A and B selected During Motorola Bus Mode (16/68# pin connected to GND), the package interface pins are configured for connection with Motorola, and other popular microprocessor bus types. In this mode the M2551 decodes an additional address, A3, to select one of the UART ports. The A3 address decode function is used only when in the Motorola Bus Mode. See Table 2. TABLE 2: CHANNEL A AND B SELECT IN 68 MODE 2.5 CS# A3 FUNCTION 1 N/A UART de-selected 0 0 Channel A selected 0 1 Channel B selected Channel A and B Internal Registers Each UART channel in the M2551 has a set of enhanced registers for control, monitoring and data loading and unloading. The configuration register set is compatible to those already available in the standard single 16C550 and dual ST16C2550. 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 16C2550 features and capabilities, the M2551 offers enhanced feature registers (EFR, Xon/Xoff 1, Xon/Xoff 2) that provide automatic RTS and CTS hardware flow control, and Xon/Xoff software flow control. All the register functions are discussed in full detail later in “Section 3.0, UART INTERNAL REGISTERS” on page 23. 9 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE 2.6 REV. 1.0.2 DMA Mode The device does not support direct memory access. The DMA Mode (a legacy term) in this document doesn’t mean “direct memory access” but refers to data block transfer operation. The DMA mode affects the state of the RXRDY# A/B and TXRDY# A/B 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 M2551 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 selected trigger level. In this mode, the M2551 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 19 through 24. TABLE 3: TXRDY# AND RXRDY# OUTPUTS IN FIFO AND DMA MODE PINS FCR BIT-0 = 1 (FIFO ENABLED) FCR BIT-0 = 0 (FIFO DISABLED) FCR BIT-3 = 0 (DMA MODE DISABLED) FCR BIT-3 = 1 (DMA MODE ENABLED) RXRDY# A/B LOW = 1 byte HIGH = No data LOW = At least 1 byte in FIFO HIGH to LOW transition when FIFO reaches the trigger level, or time-out occurs HIGH = FIFO empty LOW to HIGH transition when FIFO empties TXRDY# A/B LOW = THR empty HIGH = Byte in THR LOW = FIFO empty LOW = FIFO has at least 1 empty location HIGH = At least 1 byte in FIFO HIGH = FIFO is full 2.7 INTA and INTB Outputs The INTA and INTB interrupt output changes according to the operating mode and enhanced features setup. Table 4 and 5 summarize the operating behavior for the transmitter and receiver. Also see Figures 19 through 24. TABLE 4: INTA AND INTB PINS OPERATION FOR TRANSMITTER FCR BIT-0 = 0 (FIFO DISABLED) INTA/B Pin LOW = A byte in THR HIGH = THR empty FCR BIT-0 = 1 (FIFO ENABLED) LOW = FIFO above trigger level HIGH = FIFO below trigger level or FIFO empty TABLE 5: INTA AND INTB PIN OPERATION FOR RECEIVER FCR BIT-0 = 0 (FIFO DISABLED) INTA/B Pin LOW = No data HIGH = 1 byte FCR BIT-0 = 1 (FIFO ENABLED) LOW = FIFO below trigger level HIGH = FIFO above trigger level 10 XR16M2551 REV. 1.0.2 2.8 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE Crystal Oscillator or External Clock Input The M2551 includes an on-chip oscillator (XTAL1 and XTAL2) to produce a clock for both UART sections in the device. The CPU data bus does not require this clock for bus operation. The crystal oscillator provides a system clock to the Baud Rate Generators (BRG) section found in each of 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 2.9, Programmable Baud Rate Generator with Fractional Divisor” on page 11.” FIGURE 4. TYPICAL CRYSTAL CONNECTIONS XTAL1 XTAL2 R2 500K - 1M Y1 C1 22-47pF R1 0-120 (Optional) 1.8432 MHz to 24 MHz C2 22-47pF 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 100 ppm frequency tolerance) connected externally between the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins (see Figure 4). The programmable Baud Rate Generator is capable of operating with a crystal oscillator frequency of up to 24 MHz. However, with an external clock input on XTAL1 pin, it can extend its operation up to 64 MHz (16 Mbps serial data rate) at 3.3V with an 4X sampling rate. For further reading on the oscillator circuit please see the Application Note DAN108 on the EXAR web site at http://www.exar.com. 2.9 Programmable Baud Rate Generator with Fractional Divisor Each UART has its own Baud Rate Generator (BRG) with a prescaler 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. 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 register provides the fractional part of the divisior. Only the four lower bits of the DLD are implemented and they 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 6 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 6. At 8X sampling rate, these data rates would double and at 4X sampling rate, they would quadruple. Also, when using 8X or 4X sampling mode, please note that the bit-time will have a jitter 11 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE REV. 1.0.2 (+/- 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 M2551 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. FIGURE 5.

TSR shifts out every data bit with the 16X/8X/4X internal clock. A bit time is 16/8/4 clock periods (see DLD[5:4]). 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 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE 2.10.1 REV. 1.0.2 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. 2.10.2 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. See Figure 6 below. FIGURE 6.

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 selected 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 (See Figure 7 below). FIGURE 7.

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 LOW 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 8 and Figure 9 below. 2.11.1 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 16 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 8.

Receive Data RXFIFO1 2.12 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 10): • 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 HIGH 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 HIGH. 16 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE REV. 1.0.2 2.13 Auto RTS Hysteresis The M2551 has a new feature that provides flow control trigger hysteresis while maintaining compatibility with the XR16C850, ST16C650A and ST16C550 family of UARTs. 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 level above the selected RX trigger level in the trigger table (Table 12). The RTS# pin will return LOW after the RX FIFO is unloaded to one level below the selected RX trigger level in the trigger table (Table 12). Under the above described conditions, the M2551 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 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 10): • Enable auto CTS flow control using EFR bit-7. If using the Auto CTS interrupt: • Enable CTS interrupt through IER bit-7 (after setting EFR bit-4). The UART issues an interrupt when the CTS# pin is de-asserted (HIGH): ISR bit-5 will be set to 1, and UART will suspend transmission as soon as the stop bit of the character in process is shifted out. Transmission is resumed after the CTS# input is reasserted (LOW), indicating more data may be sent. 17 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE REV. 1.0.2 FIGURE 10.

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. 18 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE REV. 1.0.2 2.15 Auto Xon/Xoff (Software) Flow Control When software flow control is enabled (See Table 15), the M2551 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 M2551 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 M2551 will monitor the receive data stream for a match to the Xon-1,2 character. If a match is found, the M2551 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 0x00. 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 M2551 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 M2551 automatically sends an Xoff message via the serial TX output to the remote modem. The M2551 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 M2551 will transmit the programmed Xon-1,2 characters as soon as receive FIFO is less than one trigger level below the selected trigger level. (See Table 8 below). TABLE 8: 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) 1 1 1* 0 4 4 4* 1 8 8 8* 4 14 14 14* 8 * 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. 2.16 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 M2551 compares each incoming receive character with Xoff-2 data. If a match exists, the received data will be transferred to 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. 19 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE 2.17 REV. 1.0.2 Infrared Mode The M2551 UART includes the infrared encoder and decoder compatible to the IrDA (Infrared Data Association) version 1.0. 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. This signal encoding reduces the on-time of the infrared LED, hence reduces the power consumption. See Figure 11 below. The infrared encoder and decoder are enabled by setting MCR register bit-6 to a ‘1’. When the infrared feature is enabled, the transmit data output, TX, idles at logic zero level. Likewise, the RX input assumes an idle level of logic zero from a reset and power up, see Figure 11. 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 HIGH to the data bit stream. However, this is not true with some infrared modules on the market which indicate a LOW by a light pulse. So the M2551 has a provision to invert the input polarity to accommodate this. In this case user can enable MCR bit-2 to invert the input signal. FIGURE 11.

User can check the XTAL2 pin for no clock output as an indication that the device has entered the sleep mode. The M2551 resumes normal operation by any of the following when PowerSave mode is disabled: ■ 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 sleep mode is enabled and the M2551 is awakened by one of the conditions described above, an interrupt is issued by the M2551 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. The M2551 will return to the sleep mode automatically after all interrupting conditions have been serviced and cleared. If the M2551 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 from channel A or B. The M2551 will stay in the sleep mode of operation until it is disabled by setting IER bit-4 to LOW. 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. The number of characters lost during the restart also depends on your operating data rate. More characters are lost when operating at higher data rate. Also, it is important to keep RX A/B inputs idling HIGH or “marking” condition during sleep mode to avoid receiving a “break” condition upon the restart. This may occur when the external interface transceivers (RS-232, RS-422 or another type) are also put to sleep mode and cannot maintain the “marking” condition. To avoid this, the designer can use a 47k-100k ohm pull-up resistor on the RXA and RXB pins. 2.18.2 PowerSave Feature If the address lines, data bus lines, IOW#, IOR#, CSA#, CSB#, and modem input lines remain steady when the M2551 is in sleep mode, the maximum current will be in the microamp range as specified in the DC Electrical Characteristics on page 38. If the input lines are floating or are toggling while the M2551 is in sleep mode, the current can be up to 100 times more. If not using the PowerSave feature, then 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 (pin 12 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 M2551 enters PowerSave mode when the PwrSave pin is connected to VCC and the M2551 is in sleep mode (see Sleep Mode section above). Since PowerSave mode isolates the address, data and control signals, the device will wake-up by: ■ a receive data start bit transition (HIGH to LOW) ■ a change of logic state on any of the modem or general purpose serial inputs: CTS#, DSR#, CD#, RI# The M2551 will return to the PowerSave mode automatically after a read to the MSR (to reset the modem inputs) and all interrupting conditions have been serviced and cleared. The M2551 will stay in the PowerSave mode of operation until it is disabled by setting IER bit-4 to LOW and/or the PwrSave pin is connected to GND. 21 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE 2.19 REV. 1.0.2 Internal Loopback The M2551 UART provides an internal loopback capability for system diagnostic purposes. The internal loopback mode is enabled by setting MCR register bit-4 to HIGH. All regular UART functions operate normally. Figure 12 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, RTS# and DTR# pins are held while the CTS#, DSR# CD# and RI# inputs are ignored. Caution: the RX input pin must be held HIGH during loopback test else upon exiting the loopback test the UART may detect and report a false “break” signal. Also, Auto RTS/CTS flow control is not supported during internal loopback. FIGURE 12.

These interrupts are reported in the Interrupt Status Register (ISR). 4.3.1 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. 25 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE 4.3.2 REV. 1.0.2 IER versus Receive/Transmit FIFO Polled Mode Operation When FCR BIT-0 equals HIGH for FIFO enable; resetting IER bits 0-3 enables the XR16M2551 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 HIGH, 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 the character has been received. LSR bits 2-4 generate an interrupt when the character with errors is read out of the FIFO. • 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 Software Flow Control section for details. 26 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE REV. 1.0.2 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. 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 are queued up to be serviced next. No other interrupts are acknowledged until the pending interrupt is serviced. The Interrupt Source Table, Table 11, 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 Xoff/Special character is by detection of a 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 is 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 interrupt 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# flow control interrupts are cleared by a read to the MSR register. • Wake-up Indicator is cleared by a read to the ISR register. 27 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE REV. 1.0.2 ] TABLE 11: 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 (See Interrupt Source Table 11). ISR[4]: Xoff/Xon or Special Character Interrupt Status This bit is enabled when EFR bit-4 is set to HIGH. ISR bit-4 indicates that the receiver detected a data match of the Xoff character(s). If this is an Xoff/Xon interrupt, it can be cleared by a read to the ISR. If it is a special character interrupt, it can be cleared by reading ISR or it will automatically clear after the next character is received. ISR[5]: RTS#/CTS# Interrupt Status This bit is enabled when EFR bit-4 is set to HIGH. ISR bit-5 indicates that the CTS# or RTS# has been deasserted. ISR[7:6]: FIFO Enable Status These bits are set to LOW when the FIFOs are disabled. They are set to HIGH 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 HIGH when other FCR bits are written or they will not be programmed. 28 XR16M2551 REV. 1.0.2 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE 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 (the receive shift register is not cleared or altered). This bit will return to LOW 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 (the transmit shift register is not cleared or altered). This bit will return to LOW after resetting the FIFO. FCR[3]: DMA Mode Select Controls the behavior of the TXRDY# and RXRDY# pins. See DMA operation section for details. • Logic 0 = Normal Operation (default). • Logic 1 = DMA Mode. FCR[5:4]: Transmit FIFO Trigger Select (requires EFR bit-4=1) (logic 0 = default, TX trigger level = 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 12 below shows the selections. EFR bit-4 must be set to ‘1’ before these bits can be accessed. Whichever selection is made last applies to both the RX and TX side. 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 receive FIFO. The UART will issue a receive interrupt when the number of the characters in the FIFO crosses the trigger level. Table 12 shows the complete selections. Whichever selection is made last applies to both the RX and TX side.

The parity bit is a simple way used in communications for data integrity check. See Table 13 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 HIGH, 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 HIGH for the transmit and receive data. • LCR BIT-5 = logic 1 and LCR BIT-4 = logic 1, parity bit is forced to LOW for the transmit and receive data. 30 XR16M2551 REV. 1.0.2 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE TABLE 13: PARITY SELECTION LCR BIT-5 LCR BIT-4 LCR BIT-3 PARITY SELECTION X X 0 No parity 0 0 1 Odd parity 0 1 1 Even parity 1 0 1 Forced parity to mark, “1” 1 1 1 Forced parity to space, “0” LCR[6]: Transmit Break Enable When enabled, the Break control bit causes a break condition to be transmitted (the TX output is forced to a “space", LOW state). This condition remains, until disabled by setting LCR bit-6 to LOW. • Logic 0 = No TX break condition (default). • Logic 1 = Forces the transmitter output (TX) to a “space”, LOW, for alerting the remote receiver of a line break condition. LCR[7]: Baud Rate Divisors Enable Baud rate generator divisor (DLL, DLM and DLD) enable. • Logic 0 = Data registers are selected (default). • Logic 1 = Divisor latch registers are selected. 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# 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# HIGH (default). • Logic 1 = Force RTS# LOW. MCR[2]: IrDA RX Inversion or OP1# (legacy term) When Infrared mode is enabled (MCR[6]=1 and EFR[4]=1), this bit selects the idle state of the encoded IrDA data. In internal loopback mode, this bit functions like the OP1# in the 16C550. • Logic 0 = Select RX input as active-low encoded IrDA data (Idle state will be low) (default). • Logic 1 = Select RX input as active-high encoded IrDA data (Idle state will be high). In the Internal Loopback Mode, this bit controls the state of the modem input RI# bit in the MSR register as shown in Figure 12. 31 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE REV. 1.0.2 MCR[3]: OP2# Output / INT Output Enable This bit enables or disables the operation of INT, interrupt output. If INT output is not used, OP2# can be used as a general purpose output. Also, if 16/68# pin selects Motorola bus interface mode, this bit must be set to LOW. • Logic 0 = INT (A-B) outputs disabled (three state mode) and OP2# output set HIGH(default). • Logic 1 = INT (A-B) outputs enabled (active mode) and OP2# output set LOW. MCR[4]: Internal Loopback Enable • Logic 0 = Disable loopback mode (default). • Logic 1 = Enable local loopback mode, see loopback section and Figure 12. MCR[5]: Xon-Any Enable (requires EFR bit-4=1) • Logic 0 = Disable Xon-Any function (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 M2551 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. While in this mode, the infrared TX output will be idling LOW. SEE”INFRARED MODE” ON PAGE 20. 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. 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 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 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. 32 XR16M2551 REV. 1.0.2 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE 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 Error 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. LSR[5]: Transmit Holding Register Empty Flag This bit is the Transmit Holding Register Empty indicator. The THR bit is set to HIGH when the last data byte is transferred from the transmit holding register to the transmit shift register. The bit is reset to LOW 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 HIGH whenever the transmitter goes idle. It is set to LOW whenever either the THR or TSR contains a data character. In the FIFO mode this bit is set to HIGH 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 HIGH 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 LOW to HIGH, ending of the ringing signal. A modem status interrupt will be generated if MSR interrupt is enabled (IER bit-3). 33 XR16M2551 HIGH PERFORMANCE LOW VOLTAGE DUART WITH 16-BYTE FIFO AND POWERSAVE FEATURE REV. 1.0.2 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. 4.10 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. 4.11 Baud Rate Generator Registers (DLL, DLM and DLD) - Read/Write These registers make-up the value of the baud rate divisor. The concatenation of the contents of DLM and DLL is a 16-bit value is then 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”PROGRAMMABLE BAUD RATE GENERATOR WITH FRACTIONAL DIVISOR” ON PAGE 11. 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 double if the 8X mode is selected and will quadruple if the 4X mode is selected. See Table 14 below.

Prior to reading this register, DLL and DLM should be set to 0x00 (DLD = 0xXX). 4.13 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 (DLD = 0xXX). 4.14 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 15). 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 LOW (disable) before programming a new setting. EFR[3:0]: Software Flow Control Select Single character and dual sequential characters software flow control is supported. 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, and DLD to be modified. After modifying any enhanced bits, EFR bit-4 can be set to LOW 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, HIGH. • Logic 0 = modification disable/latch enhanced features. IER bits 4-7, ISR bits 4-5, FCR bits 4-5, MCR bits 57, and DLD 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, and DLD are set to LOW 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 receive 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 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 HIGH. When Auto RTS is selected, an interrupt will be generated when the receive FIFO is filled to the selected trigger level and RTS de-asserts HIGH at the next upper trigger level. RTS# will return LOW when FIFO data falls below the next lower trigger level. The RTS# output must be asserted (LOW) 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 HIGH. Data transmission resumes when CTS# returns LOW. 4.14.1 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.
