Product data sheet
6.1 Trigger levels
6.2 Hardware flow control
The SC16C752B UART is pin-compatible with the SC16C2550 UART. It provides more
enhanced features. All additional features are provided through a special Enhanced
Feature Register (EFR).
The UART will perform serial-to-parallel conversion on data characters received from
peripheral devices or modems, and parallel-to-parallel conversion on data characters
transmitted by the processor. The complete status of each channel of the SC16C752B
UART can be read at any time during functional operation by the processor.
The SC16C752B can be placed in an alternate mode (FIFO mode) relieving the processor
of excessive software overhead by buffering received/transmitted characters. Both the
receiver and transmitter FIFOs can store up to 64 bytes (including three additional bits of
error status per byte for the receiver FIFO) and have selectable or programmable trigger
levels. Primary outputs RXRDYn and TXRDYn allow signalling of DMA transfers.
The SC16C752B has selectable hardware flow control and software flow control.
Hardware flow control significantly reduces software overhead and increases system
efficiency by automatically controlling serial data flow using the RTSn output and CTSn
input signals. Software flow control automatically controls data flow by using
programmable Xon/Xoff characters.
The UART includes a programmable baud rate generator that can divide the timing
reference clock input by a divisor between 1 and (2
The SC16C752B provides independent selectable and programmable trigger levels for
both receiver and transmitter DMA and interrupt generation. After reset, both transmitter
and receiver FIFOs are disabled and so, in effect, the trigger level is the default value of
one byte. The selectable trigger levels are available via the FIFO Control Register (FCR).
The programmable trigger levels are available via the Trigger Level Register (TLR).
Hardware flow control is comprised of auto-CTS and auto-RTS. Auto-CTS and auto-RTS
can be enabled/disabled independently by programming EFR[7:6].
With auto-CTS, CTSn must be active before the UART can transmit data.
Auto-RTS only activates the RTSn output when there is enough room in the FIFO to
receive data and de-activates the RTSn output when the receive FIFO is sufficiently full.
The halt and resume trigger levels in the TCR determine the levels at which RTSn is
activated/deactivated.
If both auto-CTS and auto-RTS are enabled, when RTSn is connected to CTSn, data
transmission does not occur unless the receiver FIFO has empty space. Thus, overrun
errors are eliminated during hardware flow control. If not enabled, overrun errors occur if
the transmit data rate exceeds the receive FIFO servicing latency.
