FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
• High Performance Dual PCI UART
The XR17C1521 (152) is a monolithic dual PCI Bus
Universal Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter
(UART) in Exar’s PCI Bus UART family. The device is
designed to meet today’s 32-bit PCI Bus and high
bandwidth requirement in communication systems.
The global interrupt source register provides a com-
plete interrupt status indication for both channels to
speed up interrupt parsing. Each UART is indepen-
dently controlled and has its own 16C550 compatible
5G (Fifth Generation) register set, transmit and re-
ceive FIFOs of 64 bytes, fully programmable transmit
and receive FIFO trigger levels, transmit and receive
FIFO level counters, automatic hardware flow control
with programmable hysteresis, automatic software
(Xon/Xoff) flow control, automatic half-duplex control
output, wireless IrDA (Infrared Data Association) in-
frared encoder/decoder, 8 multi-purpose definable in-
puts/outputs, and a 16-bit general purpose timer/
counter.
• PCI Bus 2.2 Target Interface Compliance
• 5V PCI Bus Compliant up to 33MHz Clock
• 32-bit PCI Bus Interface with EEPROM Interface
• A Global Interrupt Source Register for both UARTs
• Data Transfer in Byte, Word and Double-word
• Data Read/Write Burst Operation
• Each UART is independently controlled with:
•16C550 Compatible 5G Register Set
•64-byte Transmit and Receive FIFOs
•Transmit and Receive FIFO Level Counters
•Automatic RTS/CTS or DTR/DSR Flow Control
•Automatic Xon/Xoff Software Flow Control
•Automatic RS485 Half-duplex Control Output with
16 Selectable Turn-around Delay
•Infrared (IrDA 1.0) Data Encoder/Decoder
•Programmable Data Rate with Prescaler
NOTE: 1 Covered by U.S. Patents #5,649,122, #5,949,787
•Up to 6.25 Mbps Serial Data Rate at 5V and 8X
