Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) with 16-byte FIFO and infrared (IrDA) encoder/decoder Rev. 05 - 19 June 2003 Product data 1. General description The SC16C550 is a Universal Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter (UART) used for serial data munications. Its principal function is to convert parallel data into serial data, and vice versa. The UART can handle serial data rates up to 3 Mbits/s. The SC16C550 is pin patible with the ST16C550, TL16C550 and PC16C550, and it will power-up to be functionally equivalent to the 16C450. Programming of control registers enables the added Features of the SC16C550. Some of these added Features are the 16-byte receive and...
