ST16C552A Overview
December 2003 The ST16C552/ST16C552A (552/552A) is a dual universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter (UART) with an added bi-directional parallel port that is directly patible with a CENTRONICS type printer. The parallel port is designed such that the user can configure it as general purpose I/O interface, or for connection to other printer devices. The 552/552A provides enhanced UART functions with 16 byte...
