Serial Controllers
Overview
The EM35x has two serial controllers, SC1 and SC2, which provide several options for full-duplex synchronous
and asynchronous serial communications.
Receive and transmit FIFOs allow faster data speeds using byte-at-a-time interrupts. For the highest SPI and
UART speeds, dedicated receive and transmit DMA channels reduce CPU loading and extend the allowable time
to service a serial controller interrupt. Polled operation is also possible using direct access to the serial data
registers. Figure 8-1 shows the components of the serial controllers.
Note: The notation SCx means that either SC1 or SC2 may be substituted to form the name of a specific
register or field within a register.
