XR28V384
3.3V QUAD LPC UART WITH 128-BYTE FIFO
REV. 1.0.0
NOVEMBER 2013
FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
x 128 Byte Transmit and Receive FIFO
x Compliant to LPC 1.1 Specifications
x -40°C to +85°C Industrial Temp Operation
x Watchdog Timer with WDTOUT# signal
x 4 Independent UART channels
The XR28V384 (V384) is
a
quad Universal
Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter (UART) for
the Intel Low Pin Count (LPC) bus interface. This
device can replace or supplement a Super I/O device
to add additional serial ports to the system.
The V384 UARTs support any 16-bit I/O address
supported by the system. The register set is based on
the industry standard 16550 UART, so the V384
operates with the standard serial port drivers without
requiring a custom driver to be installed.
■ Programmable I/O mapped base addresses
■ Data rates up to 3 Mbps
■ Selectable RX FIFO interrupt trigger levels
■ Auto RS-485 Half-Duplex Control mode
The 128 byte Transmit and Receive FIFOs reduce
CPU overhead and minimize the chance of buffer
overflow and data loss. In addition to the 16550
UART registers, there are also Configuration register
set where enhanced features such as the 9-bit
(multidrop) mode, IrDA mode and the Watchdog
Timer can be enabled.
■ Programmable character lengths (5, 6, 7, 8)
with even, odd, or no parity
■ IrDA mode and separate IRTXA# and IRRXA#
pins for the first UART channel
■ 9-bit (Multidrop) mode
x External 24MHz/48MHz clock
x Single 3.3V Supply Voltage ( 10% )
x 5V tolerant inputs
The V384 is available in a 48-pin TQFP package.
APPLICATIONS
x Industrial and Embedded PCs
x Factory Automation and Process Controls
x Network Routers
x 48-TQFP package (7mm x 7mm)
x System Board Designs
