TL16C552A, TL16C552AM DUAL ASYNCHRONOUS COMMUNICATIONS ELEMENT WITH FIFO
The TL16C552A is an enhanced dual-channel version of the popular TL16C550B asynchronouscommunicaTIons element (ACE). The device serves two serial input/output interfaces simultaneously inmicrocomputer or microprocessor-based systems. Each channel performs serial-to-parallel conversion on datacharacters received from peripheral devices or modems and parallel-to-serial conversion on data characterstransmitted by the CPU. The complete status of each channel of the dual ACE can be read at any TIme duringfuncTIonal operation by the CPU. The information obtained includes the type and condition of the transferoperations being performed and the error conditions encountered.In addition to its dual communications interface capabilities, the TL16C552A provides the user with abidirectional parallel data port that fully supports the parallel Centronics-type printer interface. The parallel portand the two serial ports provide IBM PC/AT-compatible computers with a single device to serve the three systemports. A programmable baud rate generator that can divide the timing reference clock input by a divisor between1 and (216 – 1) is included.
