  • Non-standard rates to 115.2 kb
  • Non-standard user-defined rate derived from programmable counter/timer
  • External 1x or 16x clock

Programmable Channel Mode

  • Normal (full-duplex)
  • Automatic echo
  • Local loopback
  • Remote loopback
  • Multidrop mode (also called wake-up or 9-bit)

Multi-function 6-Bit Input Port

  • Can serve as clock or control inputs
  • Change of state detection on four inputs
  • Inputs have typically >100 k Ω pull-up resistors

Multi-function 8-Bit Output Port

  • Individual bit set/reset capability
  • Outputs can be programmed to be status/interrupt signals

Versatile Interrupt System

  • Single interrupt output with eight maskable interrupting conditions
  • Interrupt vector output on interrupt acknowledge
  • Output port can be configured to provide a total of up to six separate wire-ORable interrupt outputs
