Bit
Description
3 SERIAL PORT A AUTO POWERDOWN ENABLE (SAAPDN) This bit enables disables auto
powerdown When SAAPDNe1 Serial Port A can enter auto powerdown if the required conditions
are met The required conditions are that the transmit and receive FIFOs are empty and the timeout
counter has expired When SAAPDNe0 auto powerdown is disabled
2 SERIAL PORT A RESET (SARESET) When SARESETe1 the Serial Port A module is reset (i e all
programming and current state information is lost) This is the same state the module would be in
after a hard reset (RSTDRV asserted) When resetting the serial port via this configuration bit the
software must toggle this bit and ensure the reset active time (SARESETe1) of 1 13 ms minimum is
met
1 SERIAL PORT A IDLE STATUS (SAIDLE) When Serial Port A is in an idle state the 82091AA sets
this bit to 1 Serial Port A is in the idle state when the transmit and receive FIFOs are empty and the
timeout counter has expired Note that these are the same conditions that apply to entering auto
powerdown When serial port A is not in an idle state the 82091AA sets this bit to 0 Direct
powerdown does not affect this bit and in auto powerdown SAIDLE is only set to a 1 if the receive
and transmit FIFOs are empty This bit is read only
During a hard reset (RSTDRV asserted) The 82091AA sets SAIDLE to 0 However because the
serial port is typically initialized by software before the idle conditions are met the default state is
shown as undefined
0 SERIAL PORT A DIRECT POWERDOWN (SADPDN) When SADPDNe1 Serial Port A is placed in
direct powerdown mode Setting this bit to 0 brings Serial Port A out of direct powerdown mode
Setting bit 2 (SARESET) of this register to 1 will also bring Serial Port A out of the direct powerdown
mode
NOTE
Direct powerdown resets the receiver and transmitter portions of the serial port including the
receive and transmit FIFOs To ensure that the resetting of the FIFOs does not cause data
loss the SAIDLE bit should be 1 before placing the serial port into direct powerdown
