Pin Descriptions
The NS16C2552/NS16C2752 pins are classified into the following interface categories.
• Bus Interface
• Serial I/O Interface
• Clock and Reset
• Power supply and Ground pins
Serial channel number (1 or 2) is designated by a numerical suffix after each pin name. If a numerical suffix (1 or
2) is not associated with the pin name, the information applies to both channels.
The I/O types are as follows:
Type: I
Type: O
Type: IO_Z

Description
Data Bus:
Data bus comprises eight TRI-STATE input/output lines. The bus provides bidirectional
communications between the UART and the CPU. Data, control words, and status information
are transferred via the D7-D0 Data Bus.
Register Addresses:
Address signals connected to these 3 inputs select a DUART register for the CPU to read
from or write to during data transfer. Table 1 shows the registers and their addresses. Note
that the state of the Divisor Latch Access Bit (DLAB), which is the most significant bit of the
Line Control Register, affects the selection of certain DUART registers. The DLAB must be
set high by the system software to access the Baud Generator Divisor Latches and the
Alternate Function Register.
Chip Select:
When CS is low, the chip is selected. This enables communication between the DUART and
the CPU. Valid chip select should stabilize according to the tAW parameter.
Channel Select:
CHSL directs the address and data information to the selected serial channel. (Table 1)
1 = channel 1 is selected.
0 = channel 2 is selected.
IO Read:
The register data is placed on the D0 - D7 on the falling edge of RD. The CPU can read
status information or data from the selected DUART register on the rising edge.
IO Write:
On the falling edge of WR, data is placed on the D0 - D7. On the rising edge, the data is
latched into the selected DUART register.
UART Receive-ready: The receiver DMA signaling is available through this pin which is a
separate pin on the TQFP package, while on the PLCC package it is available through the MF
pins (19, 35). When operating in the FIFO mode, the CPU selects one of two types of DMA
transfer via FCR[3]. When operating in the 16450 Mode, only DMA mode 0 is available. Mode
0 supports single transfer DMA (and a transfer is usually made between CPU bus cycles).
Mode 1 supports multi-transfer DMA where multiple transfers are made continuously until the
Rx FIFO is empty. Details regarding the active and inactive states of this signal are described
in FIFO CONTROL REGISTER (FCR) and DMA OPERATION.
