7.20 RS-485 Turn-around time delay (RS485TIME)
The value in this register controls the turn-around time of the external line transceiver in
bit time. In automatic 9-bit mode RTS
or DTR pin is used to control the direction of the line
driver, after the last bit of data has been shifted out of the transmit shift register the UART
will count down the value in this register. When the count value reaches zero, the UART
will assert RTS
or DTR pin (logic 0) to turn the external RS-485 transceiver around for
receiving.
7.21 Advanced Feature Control Register 2 (AFCR2)
Table 30. RS-485 programmable turn-around time register bits description
Bit Symbol Description
7:0 RS485TIME[7:0] External RS-485 transceiver turn-around time delay. The value
represents the bit time at the programmed baud rate.

Bit Symbol Description
7:6 AFCR2[7:6] reserved
5 AFCR2[5] RTSInvert. Invert RTS or DTR signal in automatic 9-bit mode.
logic 0 = RTS or DTR is set to 0 by the UART during transmission,
and to 1 during reception
logic 1 = RTS or DTR is set to 1 by the UART during transmission,
and to 0 during reception
4 AFCR2[4] RTSCon. Enable the transmitter to control RTS
or DTR pin in
automatic 9-bit mode.
logic 0 = transmitter does not control RTS or DTR pin
logic 1 = transmitter controls RTS
or DTR pin
3 AFCR2[3] RS485 RTS/DTR. Select RTS
or DTR pin to control the external
transceiver.
logic 0 = RTS pin is used to control the external transceiver
logic 1 = DTR pin is used to control the external transceiver
2 AFCR2[2] TXDisable. Disable transmitter
logic 0 = transmitter is enabled
logic 1 = transmitter is disabled
1 AFCR2[1] RXDisable. Disable receiver
logic 0 = receiver is enabled
logic 1 = receiver is disabled
0 AFCR2[0] 9-bitMode. Enable 9-bit mode or Multidrop (RS-485) mode
logic 0 = normal RS-232 mode
logic 1 = enable 9-bit mode

7.22 Advanced Feature Control Register 1 (AFCR1)
[1] It takes 4 XTAL1 clocks to reset the device.
Table 32. Advanced Feature Control Register 1 register bits description
Bit Symbol Description
7:5 AFCR1[7:5] reserved
4 AFCR1[4] Sleep RXLow. Program RX input to be edge-sensitive or level-sensitive.
logic 0 = RX input is level-sensitive. If RX pin is LOW, the UART will
not go to sleep. Once the UART is in Sleep mode, it will wake up if RX
pin goes LOW.
logic 1 = RX input is edge-sensitive. UART will go to sleep even if RX
pin is LOW, and will wake up when RX pin toggles.
3 AFCR1[3] reserved
2 AFCR1[2] RTS/CTS mapped to DTR/DSR. Switch the function of RTS/CTS to
DTR/DSR.
logic 0 = RTS and CTS signals are used for hardware flow control.
logic 1 = DTR and DSR signals are used for hardware flow control.
RTS and CTS retain their functionality.
1 AFCR1[1] SReset. Software Reset. A write to this bit will reset the UART. Once the
UART is reset this bit is automatically set to 0.
[1]
0 AFCR1[0] TSR Interrupt. Select TSR interrupt mode
logic 0 = transmit empty interrupt occurs when transmit FIFO falls
below the trigger level or becomes empty.
logic 1 = transmit empty interrupt occurs when transmit FIFO falls
below the trigger level, or becomes empty and the last stop bit has
been shifted out of the Transmit Shift Register.
