1. General description
The SC16C852SV is a 1.8 V, low power dual 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 20 Mbit/s (4× sampling rate). SC16C852SV can be programmed to operate in
extended mode where additional advanced UART features are available (see
Section 6.2). The SC16C852SV family UART provides enhanced UART functions with
128-byte FIFOs, modem control interface and IrDA encoder/decoder. On-board status
registers provide the user with error indications and operational status. System interrupts
and modem control features may be tailored by software to meet specific user
requirements. An internal loopback capability allows on-board diagnostics. Independent
programmable baud rate generators are provided to select transmit and receive baud
rates.
The SC16C852SV with Intel XScale processor VLIO interface operates at 1.8 V and is
available in the TFBGA36 package.
