GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The IUSC (Integrated Universal Serial Controller) is a single-channel multple protocol data communications device with on-chip dual-channel DMA. The integration of a highspeed serial communications channel with a high performance DMA facilitates higher data throughput than is possible with discrete serial/DMA chip combinations. The buffer chaining capabilities combined with features like character counters, frame status block and buffer termination at the end of the frame facilitate sophisticated buffer management that can significantly reduce CPU overhead.
