Dual UART with 16-byte transmit and receive FIFOs
Rev. 03 — 20 June 2003 Product data
1. Description
The SC16C2552 is a two channel Universal Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter (UART) used for serial data communications. Its principal function is to convert parallel data into serial data, and vice versa. The UART can handle serial data rates up to 5 Mbits/s. The SC16C2552 is pin compatible with the PC16C552 and ST16C2552. It will power-up to be functionally equivalent to the 16C2450. The SC16C2552 provides enhanced UART functions with 16 byte FIFOs, modem control interface, DMA mode data transfer and concurrent writes to control registers of both channels. The DMA mode data transfer is controlled by the FIFO trigger levels and the RXRDY and TXRDY signals.
