XR16C2852
2.97V TO 5.5V DUAL UART WITH 128-BYTE FIFOS
FEBRUARY 2005
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
REV. 2.1.1
The XR16C28521 (2852) is a dual universal
asynchronous receiver and transmitter (UART). The
device operates at 2.97V to 5.5V and is pin-to-pin
compatible to Exar’s ST16C2552 and XR16L2752.
The 2852 register set is compatible to the
ST16C2552 and the XR16L2752 enhanced features.
It supports the Exar’s enhanced features of 128 bytes
of TX and RX FIFOs, programmable FIFO trigger
level and FIFO level counters, automatic hardware
(RTS/CTS) and software flow control, automatic RS-
485 half duplex direction control output and a
complete modem interface. Onboard registers
provide the user with operational status and data
error flags. An internal loopback capability allows
system diagnotics. Independent programmable baud
rate generators are provided in each channel to
select data rates up to 3.125 Mbps at 5V. The 2852 is
available in the 44-pin PLCC package.
NOTE: 1 Covered by U.S. Patent #5,649,122 and #5,949,787
