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
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 (8 Mbps serial data rate) at 3.3V
with an 8X sampling rate. For further reading on the oscillator circuit please see the Application Note DAN108
on the EXAR web site at
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 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 dvisior. 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.
If the pre-scaler is used (MCR bit-7 = 1), the output data rate will be 4 times less than that shown in
8X sampling rate, these data rates would double. Also, when using 8X sampling mode, please note that the bit-
time will have a jitter (+/- 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):
The closest divisor that is obtainable in the M2750 can be calculated using the following formula:
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.

ROUND( (Required Divisor - TRUNC(Required Divisor) )*16)/16 + TRUNC(Required Divisor), where
Required Divisor (decimal) = (XTAL1 clock frequency / prescaler) / (serial data rate x 16), with 16X mode EMSR[7] = 1
Required Divisor (decimal) = (XTAL1 clock frequency / prescaler / (serial data rate x 8), with 8X mode EMSR[7] = 0
