Six
instances of the
configurable Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) interface module
with the following main features:
- 16C750-compatible
interface
- Support of RS-485 external
transceiver auto flow control
- Dual 64-byte FIFOs – one per
each received and transmitted data paths
- Programmable and selectable
transmit and receive FIFO trigger levels for DMA and interrupt
generation
- Programmable sleep mode
- Baud-rate from 300 bits/s up
to 3.6864 Mbits/s with 48 MHz functional clock
- Auto-baud between 1200 bits/s
and 115.2 Kbits/s (only when 48 MHz function clock is used)
- Support of IrDA 1.4 Slow
Infrared (SIR), Medium Infrared (MIR), and Fast Infrared (FIR)
communications
- Support of Consumer Infrared
Remote control mode (CIR) with programmable data encoding
Note: Only one UART instance has support for support full modem control functions. All other UART instances will support only the TX, RX, RTS, and CTS signals.
