The TL16C2552 is a dual universal asynchronous
receiver and transmitter (UART). It incorporates the
functionality of two TL16C550D UARTs, each UART
having its own register set and FIFOs. The two
UARTs share only the data bus interface and clock
source, otherwise they operate independently.
Another name for the UART function is
Asynchronous Communications Element (ACE), and
these terms will be used interchangeably. The bulk
of this document describes the behavior of each
ACE, with the understanding that two such devices
are incorporated into the TL16C2552.

SLWS163A – SEPTEMBER 2005 – REVISED JUNE 2006
Each ACE is a speed and voltage range upgrade of
the TL16C550C, which in turn is a functional
upgrade of the TL16C450. Functionally equivalent to
the TL16C450 on power up or reset (single character
or TL16C450 mode), each ACE can be placed in an
alternate FIFO mode. This relieves the CPU of
excessive software overhead by buffering received
and to be transmitted characters. Each receiver and
transmitter store up to 16 bytes in their respective
FIFOs, with the receive FIFO including three
additional bits per byte for error status. In the FIFO
mode, a selectable autoflow control feature can
significantly reduce software overload and increase
system efficiency by automatically controlling serial
data flow using handshakes between the RTS output
and CTS input, thus eliminating overruns in the
receive FIFO.
Each ACE performs serial-to-parallel conversions on
data received from a peripheral device or modem
and stores the parallel data in its receive buffer or
FIFO, and each ACE performs parallel-to-serial
conversions on data sent from its CPU after storing
the parallel data in its transmit buffer or FIFO. The
CPU can read the status of either ACE at any time.
Each ACE includes complete modem control
capability and a processor interrupt system that can
be tailored to the application.
Each ACE includes a programmable baud rate
generator capable of dividing a reference clock with
divisors of from 1 to 65535, thus producing a 16×
internal reference clock for the transmitter and
receiver logic. Each ACE accommodates up to a
1.5-Mbaud serial data rate (24-MHz input clock). As
a reference point, that speed would generate a
667-ns bit time and a 6.7-µs character time (for 8,N,1
serial data), with the internal clock running at 24
MHz.
Each ACE has a TXRDY and RXRDY output that
can be used to interface to a DMA controller.

power-up.
2. BAUDOUT - When BAUDOUT function is selected, the 16× baud rate clock output is
available at this pin.
3. RXRDY - RXRDY (active low) is intended for monitoring DMA data transfers.
If it is not used, leave it unconnected.

Detailed Description
Autoflow Control (see Figure 1 )
Autoflow control is comprised of auto- CTS and auto- RTS. With auto- CTS, the CTS input must be active before
the transmitter FIFO can emit data. With auto- RTS, RTS becomes active when the receiver needs more data
and notifies the sending serial device. When RTS is connected to CTS, data transmission does not occur unless
the receiver FIFO has space for the data; thus, overrun errors are eliminated using ACE1 and ACE2 from a
TLC16C2552 with the autoflow control enabled. If not, overrun errors occur when the transmit data rate exceeds
the receiver FIFO read latency.
I/O DESCRIPTION
Crystal or external clock input. XTAL1 functions as a crystal input or as an external clock
input. A crystal can be connected between XTAL1 and XTAL2 to form an internal oscillator
circuit (see Figure 5 ). Alternatively, an external clock can be connected to XTAL1 to provide
custom data rates.
Output of the crystal oscillator or buffered clock. See also XTAL1. XTAL2 is used as a crystal
oscillator output or buffered a clock output.
Figure 1. Autoflow Control (Auto- RTS and Auto- CTS) Example
Auto- RTS (See Figure 2 and Figure 3 )
Auto- RTS data flow control originates in the receiver timing and control block (see functional block diagram) and
is linked to the programmed receiver FIFO trigger level. When the receiver FIFO level reaches a trigger level of
1, 4, or 8 (see Figure 3 ), RTS is deasserted. With trigger levels of 1, 4, and 8, the sending ACE may send an
additional byte after the trigger level is reached (assuming the sending ACE has another byte to send) because
it may not recognize the deassertion of RTS until after it has begun sending the additional byte. RTS is
automatically reasserted once the RCV FIFO is emptied by reading the receiver buffer register.
When the trigger level is 14 (see Figure 5 ), RTS is deasserted after the first data bit of the 16th character is
present on the RX line. RTS is reasserted when the RCV FIFO has at least one available byte space.

SLWS163A – SEPTEMBER 2005 – REVISED JUNE 2006
Auto- CTS (See Figure 2 )
The transmitter circuitry checks CTS before sending the next data byte. When CTS is active, it sends the next
byte. To stop the transmitter from sending the following byte, CTS must be released before the middle of the last
stop bit that is currently being sent (see Figure 2 ). The auto- CTS function reduces interrupts to the host system.
When flow control is enabled, CTS level changes do not trigger host interrupts because the device automatically
controls its own transmitter. Without auto- CTS, the transmitter sends any data present in the transmit FIFO and
a receiver overrun error may result.
Enabling Autoflow Control and Auto- CTS
Autoflow control is enabled by setting modem control register bits 5 (autoflow enable or AFE) and 1 ( RTS) to a
1. Autoflow incorporates both auto- RTS and auto- CTS. When only auto- CTS is desired, bit 1 in the modem
control register should be cleared (this assumes that a control signal is driving CTS).

FIFO Control Register (FCR)
The FCR is a write-only register at the same location as the IIR, which is a read-only register. The FCR enables
and clears the FIFOs, sets the receiver FIFO trigger level, and selects the type of DMA signaling.
• Bit 0: This bit, when set, enables the transmitter and receiver FIFOs. Bit 0 must be set when other FCR bits
are written to or they are not programmed. Changing this bit clears the FIFOs.
• Bit 1: This bit, when set, clears all bytes in the receiver FIFO and clears its counter. The shift register is not
cleared. The 1 that is written to this bit position is self-clearing.
• Bit 2: This bit, when set, clears all bytes in the transmit FIFO and clears its counter. The shift register is not
cleared. The 1 that is written to this bit position is self-clearing.
• Bit 3: When FCR0 is set, setting FCR3 causes RXRDY and TXRDY to change from level 0 to level 1.
• Bits 4 and 5: These two bits are reserved for future use.
• Bits 6 and 7: These two bits set the trigger level for the receiver FIFO interrupt (see Table 4 ).

FIFO Interrupt Mode Operation
When the receiver FIFO and receiver interrupts are enabled (FCR0 = 1, IER0 = 1, IER2 = 1), a receiver interrupt
occurs as follows:
1. The received data available interrupt is issued to the microprocessor when the FIFO has reached its
programmed trigger level. It is cleared when the FIFO drops below its programmed trigger level.
2. The IIR receive data available indication also occurs when the FIFO trigger level is reached, and like the
interrupt, it is cleared when the FIFO drops below the trigger level.
3. The receiver line status interrupt (IIR = 06) has higher priority than the received data available (IIR = 04)
interrupt.
4. The data ready bit (LSR0) is set when a character is transferred from the shift register to the receiver FIFO.
It is cleared when the FIFO is empty.
When the receiver FIFO and receiver interrupts are enabled:
1. FIFO time-out interrupt occurs if the following conditions exist:
a. At least one character is in the FIFO.
b. The most recent serial character was received more than four continuous character times ago (if two
stop bits are programmed, the second one is included in this time delay).
c. The most recent microprocessor read of the FIFO has occurred more than four continuous character
times before. This causes a maximum character received command to interrupt an issued delay of
160 ms at a 300-baud rate with a 12-bit character.
2. Character times are calculated by using the RCLK input for a clock signal (makes the delay proportional to
the baud rate).
3. When a time-out interrupt has occurred, it is cleared and the timer is cleared when the microprocessor reads
one character from the receiver FIFO.
4. When a time-out interrupt has not occurred, the time-out timer is cleared after a new character is received or
after the microprocessor reads the receiver FIFO.
When the transmitter FIFO and THRE interrupt are enabled (FCR0 = 1, IER1 = 1), transmit interrupts occur as
follows:
1. The transmitter holding register empty interrupt [IIR (3 -0) = 2] occurs when the transmit FIFO is empty. It is
cleared [IIR (3 -0) = 1] when the THR is written to (1 to 16 characters may be written to the transmit FIFO
while servicing this interrupt) or the IIR is read.
2. The transmitter holding register empty interrupt is delayed one character time minus the last stop bit time
when there have not been at least two bytes in the transmitter FIFO at the same time since the last time that
the FIFO was empty. The first transmitter interrupt after changing FCR0 is immediate if it is enabled.
FIFO Polled Mode Operation
With FCR0 = 1 (transmitter and receiver FIFOs enabled), clearing IER0, IER1, IER2, IER3, or all four to 0 puts
the ACE in the FIFO polled mode of operation. Because the receiver and transmitter are controlled separately,
either one or both can be in the polled mode of operation.
In this mode, the user program checks receiver and transmitter status using the LSR. As stated previously:
• LSR0 is set as long as one byte is in the receiver FIFO.
• LSR1 - LSR 4 specify which error(s) have occurred. Character error status is handled the same way as
when in the interrupt mode; the IIR is not affected since IER2 = 0.
• LSR5 indicates when the THR is empty.
• LSR6 indicates that both the THR and TSR are empty.

TL16C2552
SLWS163A – SEPTEMBER 2005 – REVISED JUNE 2006
• LSR7 indicates whether any errors are in the receiver FIFO.
There is no trigger level reached or time-out condition indicated in the FIFO polled mode. However, the
receiver and transmitter FIFOs are still fully capable of holding characters.
Interrupt Enable Register (IER)
The IER enables each of the five types of interrupts (see Table 5) and enables INTRPT in response to an
interrupt generation. The IER can also disable the interrupt system by clearing bits 0 through 3. The contents of
this register are summarized in Table 3 and are described in the following bullets.
• Bit 0: When set, this bit enables the received data available interrupt.
• Bit 1: When set, this bit enables the THRE interrupt.
• Bit 2: When set, this bit enables the receiver line status interrupt.
• Bit 3: When set, this bit enables the modem status interrupt.
• Bits 4 through 7: These bits are not used (always cleared).
Interrupt Identification Register (IIR)
The ACE has an on-chip interrupt generation and prioritization capability that permits a flexible interface with the
most popular microprocessors.
The ACE provides four prioritized levels of interrupts:
• Priority 1 - Receiver line status (highest priority)
• Priority 2 - Receiver data ready or receiver character time-out
• Priority 3 - Transmitter holding register empty
• Priority 4 - Modem status (lowest priority)
When an interrupt is generated, the IIR indicates that an interrupt is pending and encodes the type of interrupt in
its three least significant bits (bits 0, 1, and 2). The contents of this register are summarized in Table 3 and
described in Table 5 . Details on each bit is as follows:
• Bit 0: This bit is used either in a hardwired prioritized or polled interrupt system. When bit 0 is cleared, an
interrupt is pending. If bit 0 is set, no interrupt is pending.
• Bits 1 and 2: These two bits identify the highest priority interrupt pending as indicated in Table 3 .
• Bit 3: This bit is always cleared in TL16C450 mode. In FIFO mode, bit 3 is set with bit 2 to indicate that a
time-out interrupt is pending.
• Bits 4 and 5: These two bits are not used (always cleared).
• Bits 6 and 7: These bits are always cleared in TL16C450 mode. They are set when bit 0 of the FIFO control
register is set.

Line Control Register (LCR)
The system programmer controls the format of the asynchronous data communication exchange through the
LCR. In addition, the programmer is able to retrieve, inspect, and modify the contents of the LCR; this eliminates
the need for separate storage of the line characteristics in system memory. The contents of this register are
summarized in Table 3 and described in the following bulleted list.
• Bits 0 and 1: These two bits specify the number of bits in each transmitted or received serial character.
These bits are encoded as shown in Table 6 .
• Bit 2: This bit specifies either one, one and one-half, or two stop bits in each transmitted character. When bit
2 is cleared, one stop bit is generated in the data. When bit 2 is set, the number of stop bits generated is
dependent on the word length selected with bits 0 and 1. The receiver clocks only the first stop bit
regardless of the number of stop bits selected. The number of stop bits generated in relation to word length
and bit 2 are shown in Table 7 .

• Bit 3: This bit is the parity enable bit. When bit 3 is set, a parity bit is generated in transmitted data between
the last data word bit and the first stop bit. In received data, if bit 3 is set, parity is checked. When bit 3 is
cleared, no parity is generated or checked.
• Bit 4: This bit is the even parity select bit. When parity is enabled (bit 3 is set) and bit 4 is set, even parity
(an even number of logic 1s in the data and parity bits) is selected. When parity is enabled and bit 4 is
cleared, odd parity (an odd number of logic 1s) is selected.
• Bit 5: This bit is the stick parity bit. When bits 3, 4, and 5 are set, the parity bit is transmitted and checked as
cleared. When bits 3 and 5 are set and bit 4 is cleared, the parity bit is transmitted and checked as set. If bit
5 is cleared, stick parity is disabled.
• Bit 6: This bit is the break control bit. Bit 6 is set to force a break condition; i.e., a condition where TX is
forced to the spacing (cleared) state. When bit 6 is cleared, the break condition is disabled and has no effect
on the transmitter logic; it only effects TX.

• Bit 7: This bit is the divisor latch access bit (DLAB). Bit 7 must be set to access the divisor latches of the
baud generator during a read or write. Bit 7 must be cleared during a read or write to access the receiver
buffer, the THR, or the IER.
Line Status Register (LSR)
NOTE:
The line status register is intended for read operations only; writing to this register is
not recommended outside of a factory testing environment.
The LSR provides information to the CPU concerning the status of data transfers. The contents of this register
are summarized in Table 3 and described in the following bulleted list.
• Bit 0: This bit is the data ready (DR) indicator for the receiver. DR is set whenever a complete incoming
character has been received and transferred into the RBR or the FIFO. DR is cleared by reading all of the
data in the RBR or the FIFO.
NOTE:
Bits 1 through 4 are the error conditions that produce a receiver line status interrupt.
• Bit 1: This bit is the overrun error (OE) indicator. When OE is set, it indicates that before the character in the
RBR was read, it was overwritten by the next character transferred into the register. OE is cleared every
time the CPU reads the contents of the LSR. If the FIFO mode data continues to fill the FIFO beyond the
trigger level, an overrun error occurs only after the FIFO is full, and the next character has been completely
received in the shift register. An overrun error is indicated to the CPU as soon as it happens. The character
in the shift register is overwritten, but it is not transferred to the FIFO.
• Bit 2: This bit is the parity error (PE) indicator. When PE is set, it indicates that the parity of the received
data character does not match the parity selected in the LCR (bit 4). PE is cleared every time the CPU
reads the contents of the LSR. In the FIFO mode, this error is associated with the particular character in the
FIFO to which it applies. This error is revealed to the CPU when its associated character is at the top of the
FIFO.
• Bit 3: This bit is the framing error (FE) indicator. When FE is set, it indicates that the received character did
not have a valid (set) stop bit. FE is cleared every time the CPU reads the contents of the LSR. In the FIFO
mode, this error is associated with the particular character in the FIFO to which it applies. This error is
revealed to the CPU when its associated character is at the top of the FIFO. The ACE tries to resynchronize
after a framing error. To accomplish this, it is assumed that the framing error is due to the next start bit. The
ACE samples this start bit twice and then accepts the input data.
• Bit 4: This bit is the break interrupt (BI) indicator. When BI is set, it indicates that the received data input was
held low for longer than a full-word transmission time. A full-word transmission time is defined as the total
time to transmit the start, data, parity, and stop bits. BI is cleared every time the CPU reads the contents of
the LSR. In the FIFO mode, this error is associated with the particular character in the FIFO to which it
applies. This error is revealed to the CPU when its associated character is at the top of the FIFO. When a
break occurs, only one 0 character is loaded into the FIFO. The next character transfer is enabled after RX
goes to the marking state for at least two RCLK samples and then receives the next valid start bit.
• Bit 5: This bit is the THRE indicator. THRE is set when the THR is empty, indicating that the ACE is ready to
accept a new character. If the THRE interrupt is enabled when THRE is set, an interrupt is generated. THRE
is set when the contents of the THR are transferred to the TSR. THRE is cleared concurrent with the loading
of the THR by the CPU. In the FIFO mode, THRE is set when the transmit FIFO is empty; it is cleared when
at least one byte is written to the transmit FIFO.
• Bit 6: This bit is the transmitter empty (TEMT) indicator. TEMT bit is set when the THR and the TSR are
both empty. When either the THR or the TSR contains a data character, TEMT is cleared. In the FIFO
mode, TEMT is set when the transmitter FIFO and shift register are both empty.
• Bit 7: In the TL16C450 mode, this bit is always cleared. In the FIFO mode, LSR7 is set when there is at
least one parity, framing, or break error in the FIFO. It is cleared when the microprocessor reads the LSR
and there are no subsequent errors in the FIFO.

Modem Control Register (MCR)
The MCR is an 8-bit register that controls an interface with a modem, data set, or peripheral device that is
emulating a modem. The contents of this register are summarized in Table 3 and are described in the following
bulleted list.
• Bit 0: This bit (DTR) controls the DTR output.
• Bit 1: This bit (RTS) controls the RTS output.
• Bit 2: This bit (OUT1) is reserved for output and can also be used for loopback mode.
• Bit 3: This bit (OUT2) controls the high-impedance state output buffer for the INT signal and the OP output.
When low, the INT signal is in a high-impedance state and OP is high. When high, the INT signal is enabled
and OP is low. OP is presented on MF when AFR (2:1) = 00.
• Bit 4: This bit (LOOP) provides a local loop back feature for diagnostic testing of the ACE. When LOOP is
set, the following occurs:
– The transmitter TX is set high.
– The receiver RX is disconnected.
– The output of the TSR is looped back into the receiver shift register input.
– The four modem control inputs ( CTS, DSR, CD, and RI) are disconnected.
– The four modem control outputs ( DTR, RTS, OUT1, and OUT2) are internally connected to the four
modem control inputs.
– The four modem control outputs are forced to the inactive (high) levels.
• Bit 5: This bit (AFE) is the autoflow control enable. When set, the autoflow control as described in the
detailed description is enabled.
In the diagnostic mode, data that is transmitted is immediately received. This allows the processor to verify
the transmit and receive data paths to the ACE. The receiver and transmitter interrupts are fully operational.
The modem control interrupts are also operational, but the modem control interrupt's sources are now the
lower four bits of the MCR instead of the four modem control inputs. All interrupts are still controlled by the
IER.
The ACE flow can be configured by programming bits 1 and 5 of the MCR as shown in Table 8 .
Table 8. ACE Flow Configuration
MCR BIT 5 (AFE) MCR BIT 1 (RTS) ACE FLOW CONFIGURATION
1 1 Auto- RTS and auto- CTS enabled (autoflow control enabled)
1 0 Auto- CTS only enabled
0 X Auto- RTS and auto- CTS disabled
Modem Status Register (MSR)
The MSR is an 8-bit register that provides information about the current state of the control lines from the
modem, data set, or peripheral device to the CPU. Additionally, four bits of this register provide change
information; when a control input from the modem changes state, the appropriate bit is set. All four bits are
cleared when the CPU reads the MSR. The contents of this register are summarized in Table 3 and are
described in the following bulleted list.
• Bit 0: This bit is the change in clear-to-send ( ∆ CTS) indicator. ∆ CTS indicates that the CTS input has
changed state since the last time it was read by the CPU. When ∆ CTS is set (autoflow control is not enabled
and the modem status interrupt is enabled), a modem status interrupt is generated. When autoflow control is
enabled ( ∆ CTS is cleared), no interrupt is generated.
• Bit 1: This bit is the change in data set ready ( ∆ DSR) indicator. ∆ DSR indicates that the DSR input has
changed state since the last time it was read by the CPU. When ∆ DSR is set and the modem status
interrupt is enabled, a modem status interrupt is generated.
• Bit 2: This bit is the trailing edge of the ring indicator (TERI) detector. TERI indicates that the RI input to the
chip has changed from a low to a high level. When TERI is set and the modem status interrupt is enabled, a
modem status interrupt is generated.
• Bit 3: This bit is the change in data carrier detect ( ∆ DCD) indicator. ∆ DCD indicates that the DCD input to
the chip has changed state since the last time it was read by the CPU. When ∆ DCD is set and the modem
status interrupt is enabled, a modem status interrupt is generated.

• Bit 4: This bit is the complement of the clear-to-send ( CTS) input. When the ACE is in the diagnostic test
mode (LOOP [MCR4] = 1), this bit is equal to the MCR bit 1 (RTS).
• Bit 5: This bit is the complement of the data set ready ( DSR) input. When the ACE is in the diagnostic test
mode (LOOP [MCR4] = 1), this bit is equal to the MCR bit 0 (DTR).
• Bit 6: This bit is the complement of the ring indicator ( RI) input. When the ACE is in the diagnostic test mode
(LOOP [MCR4] = 1), this bit is equal to the MCR bit 2 (OUT1).
• Bit 7: This bit is the complement of the data carrier detect ( DCD) input. When the ACE is in the diagnostic
test mode (LOOP [MCR4] = 1), this bit is equal to the MCR bit 3 (OUT2).
Programmable Baud Generator
The ACE contains a programmable baud generator that takes a clock input in the range between dc and 16
MHz and divides it by a divisor in the range between 1 and (216 -1). The output frequency of the baud generator
is sixteen times (16 y) the baud rate. The formula for the divisor is:
divisor = XIN frequency input P (desired baud rate y 16)
Two 8-bit registers, called divisor latches, store the divisor in a 16-bit binary format. These divisor latches must
be loaded during initialization of the ACE in order to ensure desired operation of the baud generator. When
either of the divisor latches is loaded, a 16-bit baud counter is also loaded to prevent long counts on initial load.
Table 9 and Table 10 illustrate the use of the baud generator with crystal frequencies of 1.8432 MHz and 3.072
MHz respectively. For baud rates of 38.4 kbits/s and below, the error obtained is small. The accuracy of the
selected baud rate is dependent on the selected crystal frequency (see Figure 27 for examples of typical clock
circuits).

Receiver Buffer Register (RBR)
The ACE receiver section consists of a receiver shift register (RSR) and a RBR. The RBR is actually a 16-byte
FIFO. Timing is derived from the input clock divided by the programmed devisor. Receiver section control is a
function of the ACE line control register.
The ACE RSR receives serial data from RX. The RSR then concatenates the data and moves it into the RBR
FIFO. In the TL16C450 mode, when a character is placed in the RBR and the received data available interrupt is
enabled (IER0 = 1), an interrupt is generated. This interrupt is cleared when the data is read out of the RBR. In
the FIFO mode, the interrupts are generated based on the control setup in the FIFO control register.
Scratch Register
The scratch register is an 8-bit register that is intended for the programmer's use as a scratchpad in the sense
that it temporarily holds the programmer's data without affecting any other ACE operation.

Transmitter Holding Register (THR)
The ACE transmitter section consists of a THR and a transmitter shift register (TSR). The THR is actually a
16-byte FIFO. Timing is derived from the input clock divided by the programmed devisor. Transmitter section
control is a function of the ACE line control register.
The ACE THR receives data off the internal data bus and when the shift register is idle, moves it into the TSR.
The TSR serializes the data and outputs it at TX. In the TL16C450 mode, if the THR is empty and the
transmitter holding register empty (THRE) interrupt is enabled (IER1 = 1), an interrupt is generated. This
interrupt is cleared when a character is loaded into the register. In the FIFO mode, the interrupts are generated
based on the control setup in the FIFO control register.

This register is used to select specific modes of MF operation and to allow both UART register sets to be written
concurrently.
AFR[0]: Concurrent Write Mode
When this bit is set, the CPU can write concurrently to the same register in both UARTs. This function is
intended to reduce the dual UART initialization time. It can be used by the CPU when both channels are
initialized to the same state. The external CPU can set or clear this bit by accessing either register set. When
this bit is set, the channel select pin still selects the channel to be accessed during read operations. The user
should ensure that LCR bit 7 of both channels are in the same state before executing a concurrent write to the
registers at addresses 0, 1, or 2.
• Logic 0 = No concurrent write (default)
• Logic 1 = Register set A and B are written concurrently with a single external CPU I/O write operation.
AFR[2:1]: MF Output Select
These bits select a signal function for output on the MF A/B pins. These signal functions are described as: OP,
BAUDOUT, or RXRDY. Only one signal function can be selected at a time.
