SC16C2550 Dual UART with 16 bytes of transmit and receive FIFOs and infrared (IrDA) encoder/decoder Rev. 02 -- 14 March 2003 Product data 1. Description The SC16C2550 is a 2 channel Universal Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter (UART) used for serial data communications. Its principal function is to convert parallel data into serial data and vice versa. The UART can handle serial data rates up to 5 Mbits/s. The SC16C2550 is pin compatible with the ST16C2550. It will power-up to be functionally equivalent to the 16C2450. The SC16C2550 provides enhanced UART functions with 16-byte FIFOs, modem control interface, DMA mode data transfer. The DMA mode data transfer is controlled by the FIFO trigger levels and the TXRDY and RXRDY signals. On-board status registers provide the user with error indications and operational status. System interrupts and modem control features may be tailored by software to meet specific user requirements. An internal loop-back capability allows on-board diagnostics. Independent programmable baud rate generators are provided to select transmit and receive baud rates. The SC16C2550 operates at 5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V and the Industrial temperature range, and is available in plastic PLCC44, LQFP48 and DIP40 packages. 2.

Functional description The SC16C2550 provides serial asynchronous receive data synchronization, parallel-to-serial and serial-to-parallel data conversions for both the transmitter and receiver sections. These functions are necessary for converting the serial data stream into parallel data that is required with digital data systems. Synchronization for the serial data stream is accomplished by adding start and stop bits to the transmit data to form a data character (character orientated protocol). Data integrity is insured 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 SC16C2550 represents such an integration with greatly enhanced features. The SC16C2550 is fabricated with an advanced CMOS process. The SC16C2550 is an upward solution that provides a dual UART capability with 16 bytes of transmit and receive FIFO memory, instead of none in the 16C2450. The SC16C2550 is designed to work with high speed modems and shared network environments that require fast data processing time. Increased performance is realized in the SC16C2550 by the transmit and receive FIFOs. This allows the external processor to handle more networking tasks within a given time. For example, the ST16C2450 without a receive FIFO, will require unloading of the RHR in 93 microseconds (this example uses a character length of 11 bits, including start/stop bits at 115.2 kbits/s). This means the external CPU will have to service the receive FIFO less than every 100 microseconds. However, with the 16 byte FIFO in the SC16C2550, the data buffer will not require unloading/loading for 1.53 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 four selectable receive FIFO trigger interrupt levels is uniquely provided for maximum data throughput performance especially when operating in a multi-channel environment. The FIFO memory greatly reduces the bandwidth requirement of the external controlling CPU, increases performance, and reduces power consumption. The SC16C2550 is capable of operation up to 5 Mbits/s with a 80 MHz clock. With a crystal or external clock input of 7.3728 MHz, the user can select data rates up to 460.8 kbits/s. The rich feature set of the SC16C2550 is available through internal registers. Selectable receive FIFO trigger levels, selectable TX and RX baud rates, and modem interface controls are all standard features. Following a power-on reset or an external reset, the SC16C2550 is software compatible with the previous generation, ST16C2450. 6.1 UART A-B functions The UART provides the user with the capability to bi-directionally transfer information between an external CPU, the SC16C2550 package, and an external serial device. A logic 0 on chip select pins CSA and/or CSB allows the user to configure, send data, and/or receive data via UART channels A-B. Individual channel select functions are shown in Table 3.

These registers are shown in Table 4. The UART registers function as data holding registers (THR/RHR), interrupt status and control registers (IER/ISR), a FIFO control register (FCR), line status and control registers (LCR/LSR), modem status and control registers (MCR/MSR), programmable data rate (clock) control registers (DLL/DLM), and a user accessible scratchpad register (SPR).

The user can set the receive trigger level via FCR bits 6-7, but not the transmit trigger level. The receiver FIFO section includes a time-out function to ensure data is delivered to the external CPU. An interrupt is generated whenever the Receive Holding Register (RHR) has not been read following the loading of a character or the receive trigger level has not been reached. Table 5: Flow control mechanism Selected trigger level (characters) INT pin activation Negate RTS or send Xoff Assert RTS or send Xon 1 1 4 1 4 4 8 4 8 8 12 8 14 14 14 10 6.4 Hardware flow control When automatic hardware flow control is enabled, the SC16C2550 monitors the CTS pin for a remote buffer overflow indication and controls the RTS pin for local buffer overflows. Automatic hardware flow control is selected by setting EFR[6] (RTS) and EFR[7] (CTS) to a logic 1. If CTS transitions from a logic 0 to a logic 1 indicating a flow control request, ISR[5] will be set to a logic 1 (if enabled via IER[6,7]), and the SC16C2550 will suspend TX transmissions as soon as the stop bit of the character in process is shifted out. Transmission is resumed after the CTS input returns to a logic 0, indicating more data may be sent. With the Auto RTS function enabled, an interrupt is generated when the receive FIFO reaches the programmed trigger level. The RTS pin will not be forced to a logic 1 (RTS off), until the receive FIFO reaches the next trigger level. However, the RTS pin will return to a logic 0 after the data buffer (FIFO) is unloaded to the next trigger level below the programmed trigger. However, under the above described conditions, the SC16C2550 will continue to accept data until the receive FIFO is full. 6.5 Software flow control When software flow control is enabled, the SC16C2550 compares one or two sequential receive data characters with the programmed Xon/Xoff or Xoff1,2 character value(s). If received character(s) match the programmed values, the SC16C2550 will halt transmission (TX) as soon as the current character(s) has completed transmission. When a match occurs, the receive ready (if enabled via Xoff IER[5]) flags will be set and the interrupt output pin (if receive interrupt is enabled) will be activated. Following a suspension due to a match of the Xoff characters' values, the SC16C2550 will monitor the receive data stream for a match to the Xon1,2 character value(s). If a match is found, the SC16C2550 will resume operation and clear the flags (ISR[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 and suspend/resume transmissions. When double 8-bit Xon/Xoff characters are selected, (c) Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. 2003. All rights reserved. 9397 750 11204 Product data Rev. 02 -- 14 March 2003 11 of 47 SC16C2550 Philips Semiconductors Dual UART with 16 bytes of transmit and receive FIFOs and infrared (IrDA) encoder/decoder the SC16C2550 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 SC16C2550 automatically sends an Xoff message (when enabled) via the serial TX output to the remote modem. The SC16C2550 sends the Xoff1,2 characters as soon as received data passes the programmed trigger level. To clear this condition, the SC16C2550 will transmit the programmed Xon1,2 characters as soon as receive data drops below the programmed trigger level. 6.6 Special feature software flow control A special feature is provided to detect an 8-bit character when EFR[5] is set. When 8-bit character is detected, it will be placed on the user-accessible data stack along with normal incoming RX data. This condition is selected in conjunction with EFR[0-3]. Note that software flow control should be turned off when using this special mode by setting EFR[0-3] to a logic 0. The SC16C2550 compares each incoming receive character with Xoff2 data. If a match exists, the received data will be transferred to the FIFO, and ISR[4] will be set to indicate detection of a special character. Although the Internal Register Table (Table 7) 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 bits LCR[0-1] define the number of character bits, i.e., either 5 bits, 6 bits, 7 bits or 8 bits. The word length selected by LCR[0-1] also determine the number of bits that will be used for the special character comparison. Bit 0 in the X-registers corresponds with the LSB bit for the receive character. 6.7 Hardware/software and time-out interrupts The interrupts are enabled by IER[0-3]. Care must be taken when handling these interrupts. Following a reset, if Interrupt Enable Register (IER) bit 1 = 1, the SC16C2550 will issue a Transmit Holding Register interrupt. This interrupt must be serviced prior to continuing operations. The LSR register provides the current singular highest priority interrupt only. It could be noted that CTS and RTS interrupts have lowest interrupt priority. A condition can exist where a higher priority interrupt may mask the lower priority CTS/RTS interrupt(s). Only after servicing the higher pending interrupt will the lower priority CTS/RTS interrupt(s) be reflected in the status register. Servicing the interrupt without investigating further interrupt conditions can result in data errors. When two interrupt conditions have the same priority, it is important to service these interrupts correctly. Receive Data Ready and Receive Time Out have the same interrupt priority (when enabled by IER[3]). The receiver issues an interrupt after the number of characters have reached the programmed trigger level. In this case, the SC16C2550 FIFO may hold more characters than the programmed trigger level. Following the removal of a data byte, the user should re-check LSR[0] for additional characters. A Receive Time Out will not occur if the receive FIFO is empty. The time-out counter is reset at the center of each stop bit received or each time the (c) Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. 2003.

The actual time-out value is 4 character time, including data information length, start bit, parity bit, and the size of stop bit, i.e., 1x, 1.5x, or 2x bit times. 6.8 Programmable baud rate generator The SC16C2550 supports high speed modem technologies that have increased input data rates by employing data compression schemes. For example, a 33.6 kbit/s modem that employs data compression may require a 115.2 kbit/s input data rate. A 128.0 kbit/s ISDN modem that supports data compression may need an input data rate of 460.8 kbit/s. The SC16C2550 can support a standard data rate of 921.6 kbit/s. A single baud rate generator is provided for the transmitter and receiver, allowing independent TX/RX channel control. The programmable Baud Rate Generator is capable of operating with a frequency of up to 80 MHz. To obtain maximum data rate, it is necessary to use full rail swing on the clock input. The SC16C2550 can be configured for internal or external clock operation. For internal clock oscillator operation, an industry standard microprocessor crystal is connected externally between the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins. Alternatively, an external clock can be connected to the XTAL1 pin to clock the internal baud rate generator for standard or custom rates (see Table 6). The generator divides the input 16x clock by any divisor from 1 to 216 - 1. The SC16C2550 divides the basic external clock by 16. The basic 16x clock provides table rates to support standard and custom applications using the same system design. The rate table is configured via the DLL and DLM internal register functions. Customized Baud Rates can be achieved by selecting the proper divisor values for the MSB and LSB sections of baud rate generator. XTAL2 XTAL1 Programming the Baud Rate Generator Registers DLM (MSB) and DLL (LSB) provides a user capability for selecting the desired final baud rate. The example in Table 6 shows the selectable baud rate table available when using a 1.8432 MHz external clock input. X1 1.8432 MHz C1 68 pF C2 68 pF 002aaa169 Fig 5. Crystal oscillator connection.

LSR[5,6] provide an indication when the transmitter is empty or has an empty location(s). The user can optionally operate the transmit and receive FIFOs in the DMA mode (FCR[3]). When the transmit and receive FIFOs are enabled and the DMA mode is de-activated (DMA Mode 0), the SC16C2550 activates the interrupt output pin for each data transmit or receive operation. When DMA mode is activated (DMA Mode 1), the user takes the advantage of block mode operation by loading or unloading the FIFO in a block sequence determined by the receive trigger level and the transmit FIFO. In this mode, the SC16C2550 sets the TXRDY (or RXRDY) output pin when characters in the transmit FIFO is below 16, or the characters in the receive FIFOs are above the receive trigger level. 6.10 Loop-back mode The internal loop-back capability allows on-board diagnostics. In the loop-back mode, the normal modem interface pins are disconnected and reconfigured for loop-back internally (see Figure 6). MCR[0-3] register bits are used for controlling loop-back diagnostic testing. In the loop-back mode, the transmitter output (TX) and the receiver input (RX) are disconnected from their associated interface pins, and instead are connected together internally. The CTS, DSR, CD, and RI are disconnected from their normal modem control inputs pins, and instead are connected internally to RTS, DTR, MCR[3] (OP2) and MCR[2] (OP1). Loop-back test data is entered into the transmit holding register via the user data bus interface, D0-D7. The transmit UART serializes the data and passes the serial data to the receive UART via the internal loop-back connection. The receive UART converts the serial data back into parallel (c) Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. 2003.

The status of the THR is provided in the Line Status Register (LSR). Writing to the THR transfers the contents of the data bus (D7-D0) to the TSR and UART via the THR, providing that the THR is empty. The THR empty flag in the LSR register will be set to a logic 1 when the transmitter is empty or when data is transferred to the TSR. Note that a write operation can be performed when the THR empty flag is set (logic 0 = at least one byte in FIFO/THR, logic 1 = FIFO/THR empty). The serial receive section also contains an 8-bit Receive Holding Register (RHR) and a Receive Serial Shift Register (RSR). Receive data is removed from the SC16C2550 and receive FIFO by reading the RHR register. The receive section provides a mechanism to prevent false starts. On the falling edge of a start or false start bit, an internal receiver counter starts counting clocks at the 16x clock rate. After 7-12 clocks, the start bit time should be shifted to 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. Receiver status codes will be posted in the LSR. 7.2 Interrupt Enable Register (IER) The Interrupt Enable Register (IER) masks the interrupts from receiver ready, transmitter empty, line status and modem status registers. These interrupts would normally be seen on the INTA, INTB output pins. Table 8: Interrupt Enable Register bits description Bit Symbol Description 7 IER[7] CTS interrupt. Logic 0 = Disable the CTS interrupt (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Enable the CTS interrupt. The SC16C2550 issues an interrupt when the CTS pin transitions from a logic 0 to a logic 1. 6 IER[6] RTS interrupt. Logic 0 = Disable the RTS interrupt (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Enable the RTS interrupt. The SC16C2550 issues an interrupt when the RTS pin transitions from a logic 0 to a logic 1. 5 IER[5] Xoff interrupt. Logic 0 = Disable the software flow control, receive Xoff interrupt (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Enable the software flow control, receive Xoff interrupt. 4 IER[4] Sleep mode. Logic 0 = Disable sleep mode (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Enable sleep mode. 3 IER[3] Modem Status Interrupt. This interrupt will be issued whenever there is a modem status change as reflected in MSR[0-3]. Logic 0 = Disable the modem status register interrupt (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Enable the modem status register interrupt. (c) Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. 2003.

This interrupt will be issued whenever a receive data error condition exists as reflected in LSR[1-4]. Logic 0 = Disable the receiver line status interrupt (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Enable the receiver line status interrupt. 1 IER[1] Transmit Holding Register interrupt. In the 16C450 mode, this interrupt will be issued whenever the THR is empty, and is associated with LSR[5]. In the FIFO modes, this interrupt will be issued whenever the FIFO is empty. Logic 0 = Disable the Transmit Holding Register Empty (TXRDY) interrupt (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Enable the TXRDY (ISR level 3) interrupt. 0 IER[0] Receive Holding Register. In the 16C450 mode, this interrupt will be issued when the RHR has data, or is cleared when the RHR is empty. In the FIFO mode, this interrupt will be issued when the FIFO has reached the programmed trigger level or is cleared when the FIFO drops below the trigger level. Logic 0 = Disable the receiver ready (ISR level 2, RXRDY) interrupt (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Enable the RXRDY (ISR level 2) interrupt. 7.2.1 IER versus Transmit/Receive FIFO interrupt mode operation When the receive FIFO (FCR[0] = logic 1), and receive interrupts (IER[0] = logic 1) are enabled, the receive interrupts and register status will reflect the following: * The receive RXRDY interrupt (Level 2 ISR interrupt) is issued to the external CPU when the receive FIFO has reached the programmed trigger level. It will be cleared when the receive FIFO drops below the programmed trigger level. * Receive FIFO status will also be reflected in the user accessible ISR register when the receive FIFO trigger level is reached. Both the ISR register receive status bit and the interrupt will be cleared when the FIFO drops below the trigger level. * The receive data ready bit (LSR[0]) is set as soon as a character is transferred from the shift register (RSR) to the receive FIFO. It is reset when the FIFO is empty. * When the Transmit FIFO and interrupts are enabled, an interrupt is generated when the transmit FIFO is empty due to the unloading of the data by the TSR and UART for transmission via the transmission media. The interrupt is cleared either by reading the ISR register, or by loading the THR with new data characters. (c) Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. 2003.

In this mode, interrupts are not generated and the user must poll the LSR register for TX and/or RX data status. 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). * * * * LSR[0] will be a logic 1 as long as there is one byte in the receive FIFO. LSR[1-4] will provide the type of receive errors, or a receive break, if encountered. LSR[5] will indicate when the transmit FIFO is empty. LSR[6] will indicate when both the transmit FIFO and transmit shift register are empty. * LSR[7] will show if any FIFO data errors occurred. 7.3 FIFO Control Register (FCR) This register is used to enable the FIFOs, clear the FIFOs, set the receive FIFO trigger levels, and select the DMA mode. 7.3.1 DMA mode Mode 0 (FCR bit 3 = 0): Set and enable the interrupt for each single transmit or receive operation, and is similar to the 16C450 mode. Transmit Ready (TXRDY) on PLCC44 and LQFP48 packages will go to a logic 0 whenever the FIFO (THR, if FIFO is not enabled) is empty. Receive Ready (RXRDY) on PLCC44 and LQFP48 packages will go to a logic 0 whenever the Receive Holding Register (RHR) is loaded with a character. Mode 1 (FCR bit 3 = 1): Set and enable the interrupt in a block mode operation. The transmit interrupt is set when the transmit FIFO is empty. TXRDY on PLCC and LQFP48 packages remains a logic 0 as long as one empty FIFO location is available. The receive interrupt is set when the receive FIFO fills to the programmed trigger level. However, the FIFO continues to fill regardless of the programmed level until the FIFO is full. RXRDY on PLCC44 and LQFP48 packages transitions LOW when the FIFO reaches the trigger level, and transitions HIGH when the FIFO empties. (c) Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. 2003.

These bits are used to set the trigger level for the receive FIFO interrupt. Logic 0 (or cleared) = normal default condition. Logic 1 = RX trigger level. An interrupt is generated when the number of characters in the FIFO equals the programmed trigger level. However, the FIFO will continue to be loaded until it is full. Refer to Table 10. 5-4 FCR[5-4] Not used; initialized to logic 0. 3 FCR[3] DMA mode select. Logic 0 = Set DMA mode `0' Logic 1 = Set DMA mode `1' Transmit operation in mode `0': When the SC16C2550 is in the 16C450 mode (FIFOs disabled; FCR[0] = logic 0) or in the FIFO mode (FIFOs enabled; FCR[0] = logic 1; FCR[3] = logic 0), and when there are no characters in the transmit FIFO or transmit holding register, the TXRDY pin in PLCC44 or LQFP48 packages will be a logic 0. Once active, the TXRDY pin will go to a logic 1 after the first character is loaded into the transmit holding register. Receive operation in mode `0': When the SC16C2550 is in mode `0' (FCR[0] = logic 0), or in the FIFO mode (FCR[3] = logic 0) and there is at lease one character in the receive FIFO, the RXRDY pin will be a logic 0. Once active, the RXRDY pin on PLCC44 and LQFP48 packages will go to a logic 1 when there are no more characters in the receiver. Transmit operation in mode `1': When the SC16C2550 is in FIFO mode (FCR[0] = logic 1; FCR[3] = logic 1), the TXRDY pin on PLCC44 and LQFP48 packages will be a logic 1 when the transmit FIFO is completely full. It will be a logic 0 if one or more FIFO locations are empty. Receive operation in mode `1': When the SC16C2550 is in FIFO mode (FCR[0] = logic 1; FCR[3] = logic 1) and the trigger level has been reached, or a Receive Time-Out has occurred, the RXRDY pin on PLCC44 and LQFP48 packages will go to a logic 0. Once activated, it will go to a logic 1 after there are no more characters in the FIFO. 2 FCR[2] XMIT FIFO reset. Logic 0 = Transmit FIFO not reset (normal default condition).

The Interrupt Status Register (ISR) provides the user with four interrupt status bits. Performing a read cycle on the ISR will provide the user with the highest pending interrupt level to be serviced. No other interrupts are acknowledged until the pending interrupt is serviced. A lower level interrupt may be seen after servicing the higher level interrupt and re-reading the interrupt status bits. Table 11 "Interrupt source" shows the data values (bits 0-3) for the four prioritized interrupt levels and the interrupt sources associated with each of these interrupt levels.

Table 17: Modem Control Register bits description Bit Symbol Description 7 MCR[7] Reserved; set to `0'. 6 MCR[6] IR enable. Logic 0 = Enable the standard modem receive and transmit input/output interface (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Enable infrared IrDA receive and transmit inputs/outputs. While in this mode, the TX/RX output/inputs are routed to the infrared encoder/decoder. The data input and output levels will conform to the IrDA infrared interface requirement. As such, while in this mode, the infrared TX output will be a logic 0 during idle data conditions. 5 MCR[5] Reserved; set to `0'. 4 MCR[4] Loop-back. Enable the local loop-back mode (diagnostics). In this mode the transmitter output (TX) and the receiver input (RX), CTS, DSR, CD, and RI are disconnected from the SC16C2550 I/O pins. Internally the modem data and control pins are connected into a loop-back data configuration (see Figure 6). In this mode, the receiver and transmitter interrupts remain fully operational. The Modem Control Interrupts are also operational, but the interrupts' sources are switched to the lower four bits of the Modem Control. Interrupts continue to be controlled by the IER register.

The THR bit is set to a logic 1 when a character is transferred from the transmit holding register into the transmitter shift register. The bit is reset to a logic 0 concurrently with the loading of the transmitter holding register by the CPU. In the FIFO mode, this bit is set when the transmit FIFO is empty; it is cleared when at least 1 byte is written to the transmit FIFO. 4 LSR[4] Break interrupt. Logic 0 = No break condition (normal default condition). Logic 1 = The receiver received a break signal (RX was a logic 0 for one character frame time). In the FIFO mode, only one break character is loaded into the FIFO. 3 LSR[3] Framing error. Logic 0 = No framing error (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Framing error. The receive character did not have a valid stop bit(s). In the FIFO mode, this error is associated with the character at the top of the FIFO. 2 LSR[2] Parity error. Logic 0 = No parity error (normal default condition. Logic 1 = Parity error. The receive character does not have correct parity information and is suspect. In the FIFO mode, this error is associated with the character at the top of the FIFO. (c) Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. 2003.

Logic 0 = No overrun error (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Overrun error. A data overrun error 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 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. 0 LSR[0] Receive data ready. Logic 0 = No data in receive holding register or FIFO (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Data has been received and is saved in the receive holding register or FIFO. 7.8 Modem Status Register (MSR) This register provides the current state of the control interface signals from the modem, or other peripheral device to which the SC16C2550 is connected. Four bits of this register are used to indicate the changed information. These bits are set to a logic 1 whenever a control input from the modem changes state. These bits are set to a logic 0 whenever the CPU reads this register. Table 19: Modem Status Register bits description Bit Symbol Description 7 MSR[7] CD. During normal operation, this bit is the complement of the CD input. Reading this bit in the loop-back mode produces the state of MCR[3] (OP2). 6 MSR[6] RI. During normal operation, this bit is the complement of the RI input. Reading this bit in the loop-back mode produces the state of MCR[2] (OP1). 5 MSR[5] DSR. During normal operation, this bit is the complement of the DSR input. During the loop-back mode, this bit is equivalent to MCR[0] (DTR). 4 MSR[4] CTS. During normal operation, this bit is the complement of the CTS input. During the loop-back mode, this bit is equivalent to MCR[1] (RTS). 3 MSR[3] CD [1] Logic 0 = No CD change (normal default condition). Logic 1 = The CD input to the SC16C2550 has changed state since the last time it was read. A modem Status Interrupt will be generated. 2 MSR[2] RI [1] Logic 0 = No RI change (normal default condition). Logic 1 = The RI input to the SC16C2550 has changed from a logic 0 to a logic 1. A modem Status Interrupt will be generated. (c) Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. 2003.

Logic 1 = The DSR input to the SC16C2550 has changed state since the last time it was read. A modem Status Interrupt will be generated. 0 MSR[0] CTS [1] Logic 0 = No CTS change (normal default condition). Logic 1 = The CTS input to the SC16C2550 has changed state since the last time it was read. A modem Status Interrupt will be generated. [1] Whenever any MSR bit 0-3 is set to logic 1, a Modem Status Interrupt will be generated. 7.9 Scratchpad Register (SPR) The SC16C2550 provides a temporary data register to store 8 bits of user information. 7.10 Enhanced Feature Register (EFR) Enhanced features are enabled or disabled using this register. Bits 0 through 4 provide single or dual character software flow control selection. When the Xon1 and Xon2 and/or Xoff1 and Xoff2 modes are selected, the double 8-bit words are concatenated into two sequential numbers. Table 20: Enhanced Feature Register bits description Bit Symbol Description 7 EFR[7] Automatic CTS flow control. Logic 0 = Automatic CTS flow control is disabled (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Enable Automatic CTS flow control. Transmission will stop when CTS goes to a logical 1. Transmission will resume when the CTS pin returns to a logical 0. 6 EFR[6] Automatic RTS flow control. Automatic RTS may be used for hardware flow control by enabling EFR[6]. When Auto-RTS is selected, an interrupt will be generated when the receive FIFO is filled to the programmed trigger level and RTS will go to a logic 1 at the next trigger level. RTS will return to a logic 0 when data is unloaded below the next lower trigger level (programmed trigger level 1). The state of this register bit changes with the status of the hardware flow control. RTS functions normally when hardware flow control is disabled. 0 = Automatic RTS flow control is disabled (normal default condition). 1 = Enable Automatic RTS flow control.

Logic 0 = Special character detect disabled (normal default condition). Logic 1 = Special character detect enabled. The SC16C2550 compares each incoming receive character with Xoff2 data. If a match exists, the received data will be transferred to FIFO and ISR[4] will be set to indicate detection of special character. Bit-0 in the X-registers corresponds with the LSB bit for the receive character. When this feature is enabled, the normal software flow control must be disabled (EFR[3-0] must be set to a logic 0). 4 EFR[4] Enhanced function control bit. The content of IER[7-4], ISR[5-4], FCR[5-4], and MCR[7-5] can be modified and latched. After modifying any bits in the enhanced registers, EFR[4] can be set to a logic 0 to latch the new values. This feature prevents existing software from altering or overwriting the SC16C2550 enhanced functions. Logic 0 = disable/latch enhanced features. IER[7-4], ISR[5-4], FCR[5-4], and MCR[7-5] are saved to retain the user settings, then IER[7-4] ISR[5-4], FCR[5-4], and MCR[7-5] are set to a logic 0 to be compatible with SC16C554 mode. (Normal default condition.) Logic 1 = Enables the enhanced functions. When this bit is set to a logic 1, all enhanced features of the SC16C2550 are enabled and user settings stored during a reset will be restored. 3-0 EFR[3-0] Cont-3-0 Tx, Rx control. Logic 0 or cleared is the default condition. Combinations of software flow control can be selected by programming these bits. See Table 21.

Soldering 12.1 Introduction This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology. A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in our Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages (document order number 9398 652 90011). There is no soldering method that is ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and surface mount components are mixed on one printed-circuit board. Wave soldering can still be used for certain surface mount ICs, but it is not suitable for fine pitch SMDs. In these situations reflow soldering is recommended. 12.2 Surface mount packages 12.2.1 Reflow soldering Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement. Several methods exist for reflowing; for example, convection or convection/infrared heating in a conveyor type oven. Throughput times (preheating, soldering and cooling) vary between 100 and 200 seconds depending on heating method. Typical reflow peak temperatures range from 215 to 250 C. The top-surface temperature of the packages should preferably be kept: * below 220 C for all the BGA packages and packages with a thickness 2.5mm and packages with a thickness <2.5 mm and a volume 350 mm3 so called thick/large packages * below 235 C for packages with a thickness <2.5 mm and a volume <350 mm3 so called small/thin packages. 12.2.2 Wave soldering Conventional single wave soldering is not recommended for surface mount devices (SMDs) or printed-circuit boards with a high component density, as solder bridging and non-wetting can present major problems. To overcome these problems the double-wave soldering method was specifically developed. If wave soldering is used the following conditions must be observed for optimal results: * Use a double-wave soldering method comprising a turbulent wave with high upward pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave.

The footprint must incorporate solder thieves at the downstream end. * For packages with leads on four sides, the footprint must be placed at a 45 angle to the transport direction of the printed-circuit board. The footprint must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners. During placement and before soldering, the package must be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe dispensing. The package can be soldered after the adhesive is cured. Typical dwell time is 4 seconds at 250 C. A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal of corrosive residues in most applications. 12.2.3 Manual soldering Fix the component by first soldering two diagonally-opposite end leads. Use a low voltage (24 V or less) soldering iron applied to the flat part of the lead. Contact time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to 300 C. When using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be soldered in one operation within 2 to 5 seconds between 270 and 320 C. 12.3 Through-hole mount packages 12.3.1 Soldering by dipping or by solder wave The maximum permissible temperature of the solder is 260 C; solder at this temperature must not be in contact with the joints for more than 5 seconds. The total contact time of successive solder waves must not exceed 5 seconds. The device may be mounted up to the seating plane, but the temperature of the plastic body must not exceed the specified maximum storage temperature (Tstg(max)). If the printed-circuit board has been pre-heated, forced cooling may be necessary immediately after soldering to keep the temperature within the permissible limit. 12.3.2 Manual soldering Apply the soldering iron (24 V or less) to the lead(s) of the package, either below the seating plane or not more than 2 mm above it. If the temperature of the soldering iron bit is less than 300 C it may remain in contact for up to 10 seconds. If the bit temperature is between 300 and 400 C, contact may be up to 5 seconds.

All surface mount (SMD) packages are moisture sensitive. Depending upon the moisture content, the maximum temperature (with respect to time) and body size of the package, there is a risk that internal or external package cracks may occur due to vaporization of the moisture in them (the so called popcorn effect). For details, refer to the Drypack information in the Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages; Section: Packing Methods. For SDIP packages, the longitudinal axis must be parallel to the transport direction of the printed-circuit board. These packages are not suitable for wave soldering. On versions with the heatsink on the bottom side, the solder cannot penetrate between the printed-circuit board and the heatsink. On versions with the heatsink on the top side, the solder might be deposited on the heatsink surface. If wave soldering is considered, then the package must be placed at a 45 angle to the solder wave direction. The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners. Wave soldering is suitable for LQFP, QFP and TQFP packages with a pitch (e) larger than 0.8 mm; it is definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.65 mm. Wave soldering is suitable for SSOP and TSSOP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger than 0.65 mm; it is definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.5 mm.

Its principal function is to convert parallel data into serial data and vice versa. The UART can handle serial data rates up to 5 Mbits/s. The SC16C2550 is pin compatible with the ST16C2550. It will power-up to be functionally equivalent to the 16C2450. The SC16C2550 provides enhanced UART functions with 16-byte FIFOs, modem control interface, DMA mode data transfer. The DMA mode data transfer is controlled by the FIFO trigger levels and the TXRDY and RXRDY signals. On-board status registers provide the user with error indications and operational status. System interrupts and modem control features may be tailored by software to meet specific user requirements. An internal loop-back capability allows on-board diagnostics. Independent programmable baud rate generators are provided to select transmit and receive baud rates. The SC16C2550 operates at 5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V and the Industrial temperature range, and is available in plastic PLCC44, LQFP48 and DIP40 packages. file:///G|/imaging/BITTING/CPL/20030424/04232003_9/PHGL/_HTML04232003/SC16C2550IA44.html (1 of 4) [May-13-2003 1:55:49 PM] Philips Semiconductors - PIP - SC16C2550; Dual UART with 16 bytes of transmit and receive FIFOs and infrared (IrDA) encoder/decoder Features top 2 channel UART 5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V operation Industrial temperature range Pin and functionally compatible to 16C2450 and software compatible with INS8250, SC16C550 Up to 5 Mbits/s data rate at 5 V and 3.3 V, and 3 Mbits/s at 2.5 V 16 byte transmit FIFO to reduce the bandwidth requirement of the external CPU 16 byte receive FIFO with error flags to reduce the bandwidth requirement of the external CPU Independent transmit and receive UART control Four selectable Receive FIFO interrupt trigger levels Automatic software/hardware flow control Programmable Xon/Xoff characters Software selectable Baud Rate Generator Sleep mode Standard asynchronous error and framing bits (Start, Stop, and Parity Overrun Break) Transmit, Receive, Line Status, and Data Set interrupts independently controlled Fully programmable character formatting: 5-, 6-, 7-, or 8-bit characters Even-, Odd-, or No-Parity formats 1-, 1 1/2 -, or 2-stop bit Baud generation (DC to 1.5 Mbit/s) False start-bit detection Complete status reporting capabilities 3-State output TTL drive capabilities for bi-directional data bus and control bus Line Break generation and detection Internal diagnostic capabilities: Loop-back controls for communications link fault isolation Prioritized interrupt system controls Modem control functions (CTS, RTS, DSR, DTR, RI, DCD).
