FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
• 2.25 to 3.6 Volt Operation
• 5 Volt Tolerant Inputs
1
The XR16V2651 (V2651) is a high performance dual
universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter
(UART) with 32 byte TX and RX FIFOs. The device
operates from 2.25 to 3.6 volts with 5 Volt tolerant
inputs and is pin-to-pin and software compatible to
Exar’s XR16V2551 and XR16L2551. The device
• Pin-to-pin compatible to Exar’s XR16L2751 in the
48-TQFP package
• Two independent UART channels
■ Register set identical to 16V2650
includes
2
additional capabilities over the
XR16V2650: Intel and Motorola data bus selection
and a “PowerSave” mode to further reduce sleep
current to a minimum during sleep mode. It supports
the Exar’s enhanced features of selectable FIFO
trigger level, automatic hardware (RTS/CTS) and
software flow control, and a complete modem
interface. An internal loopback capability allows
system diagnostics. Independent programmable
fractional baud rate generators are provided in each
channel to select data rates up to 16 Mbps at 3.3 Volt
and 4X sampling clock. The V2651 is available in 48-
pin TQFP and 32-pin QFN packages.
■ Data rate of up to 16 Mbps at 3.3 V, and 12.5
Mbps at 2.5 V with 4X sampling rate
■ Fractional Baud Rate Generator
■ Transmit and Receive FIFOs of 32 bytes
■ Selectable TX and RX FIFO Trigger Levels
■ Automatic Hardware (RTS/CTS) Flow Control
■ Automatic Software (Xon/Xoff) Flow Control
■ Wireless Infrared (IrDA 1.0) Encoder/Decoder
■ Automatic sleep mode with wake-up interrupt
■ Full modem interface
NOTE: 1 Covered by U.S. Patent #5,649,122
