Description

The OX16C950 is a single-channel ultra-high performance UART offering data rates up to 15Mbps and 128-deep transmitter and receiver FIFOs. Deep FIFOs reduce CPU overhead and allow utilisation of higher data rates.

Key Features

  • Automated out-of-band flow control using CTS# / RTS# and DSR# / DTR#
  • Readable in-band and out-of-band flow control status
  • Programmable special character detection
  • Arbitrary trigger levels for receiver and transmitter FIFO interrupts and automatic in-band and out-of-band flow control
  • Transmitter idle interrupt (shift register and FIFO both empty)
  • Optional Infra-red (IrDA) receiver and transmitter operation
  • RS-485 buffer enable signals
  • Software channel reset
  • Four byte device ID
  • Sleep mode (low operating current)
