Block Diagram
The SC26C92 DUART consists of the following eight major sections:
data bus buffer, operation control, interrupt control, timing,
communications Channels A and B, input port and output port.
Refer to the Block Diagram.
Data Bus Buffer
The data bus buffer provides the interface between the external and
internal data buses. It is controlled by the operation control block to
allow read and write operations to take place between the controlling
CPU and the DUART.
Operation Control
The operation control logic receives operation commands from the
CPU and generates appropriate signals to internal sections to
control device operation. It contains address decoding and read and
write circuits to permit communications with the microprocessor via
the data bus.
Interrupt Control
A single active-Low interrupt output (INTRN) is provided which is
activated upon the occurrence of any of eight internal events.
Associated with the interrupt system are the Interrupt Mask Register
(IMR) and the Interrupt Status Register (ISR). The IMR can be
programmed to select only certain conditions to cause INTRN to be
asserted. The ISR can be read by the CPU to determine all
currently active interrupting conditions.
Outputs OP3-OP7 can be programmed to provide discrete interrupt
outputs for the transmitter, receivers, and counter/timer.
When OP3 to OP7 are programmed as interrupts, their output
buffers are changed to the open drain active low configuration.
These pins may be used for DMA and modem control.
TIMING CIRCUITS
Crystal Clock
The timing block consists of a crystal oscillator, a baud rate
generator, a programmable 16-bit counter/timer, and four clock
selectors. The crystal oscillator operates directly from a crystal
connected across the X1/CLK and X2 inputs. If an external clock of
the appropriate frequency is available, it may be connected to
X1/CLK. The clock serves as the basic timing reference for the
Baud Rate Generator (BRG), the counter/timer, and other internal
circuits. A clock signal within the limits specified in the
specifications section of this data sheet must always be supplied to
the DUART.
If an external is used instead of a crystal, X1 should be driven using
a configuration similar to the one in Figure 7.
BRG
The baud rate generator operates from the oscillator or external
clock input and is capable of generating 27 commonly used data
communications baud rates ranging from 50 to 38.4K baud.
Programming bit 0 of MR0 to a “1” gives additional baud rates to
230.4kB. These will be in the 16X mode. A 3.6864MHz crystal or
external clock must be used to get the standard baud rates. The
clock outputs from the BRG are at 16X the actual baud rate. The
counter/timer can be used as a timer to produce a 16X clock for any
other baud rate by counting down the crystal clock or an external
clock. The four clock selectors allow the independent selection, for
each receiver and transmitter, of any of these baud rates or external
timing signal.

Counter–Timer
The Counter/Timer is a programmable 16–bit divider that is used for
generating miscellaneous clocks or generating timeout periods.
These clocks may be used by any or all of the receivers and trans-
mitters in the DUART or may be directed to an I/O pin for miscella-
neous use.
Counter/Timer programming
The counter timer is a 16–bit programmable divider that operates in
one of three modes: counter, timer, and time out.
The C/T uses the numbers loaded into the Counter/Timer Lower
Register (CTPL) and the Counter/Timer Upper Register (CTPU) as
its divisor. The counter timer is controlled with six commands: Start/
Stop C/T, Read/Write Counter/Timer lower register and Read/Write
Counter/Timer upper register. These commands have slight differ-
ences depending on the mode of operation. Please see the detail of
the commands under the CTPL/CTPU register descriptions.
Baud Rate Generation with the C/T
When the timer is selected as baud rates for receiver or transmitter
via the Clock Select register their output will be configured as a 16x
clock. Therefore one needs to program the timer to generate a
clock 16 times faster than the data rate. The formula for calculating
’n’, the number loaded to the CTPU and CTPL registers, based on a
particular input clock frequency is shown below.
For the timer mode the formula is as follows:
NOTE: ‘n’ may not assume values of 0 and 1.
The frequency generated from the above formula will be at a rate 16
times faster than the desired baud rate. The transmitter and receiv-
er state machines include divide by 16 circuits, which provide the
final frequency and provide various timing edges used in the qualify-
ing the serial data bit stream. Often this division will result in a non–
integer value: 26.3 for example. One may only program integer
numbers to a digital divider. There for 26 would be chosen. If 26.7
were the result of the division then 27 would be chosen. This gives
a baud rate error of 0.3/26.3 or 0.3/26.7 that yields a percentage
error of 1.14% or 1.12% respectively, well within the ability of the
asynchronous mode of operation. Higher input frequency to the
counter reduces the error effect of the fractional division
One should be cautious about the assumed benign effects of small
errors since the other receiver or transmitter with which one is com-
municating may also have a small error in the precise baud rate. In
a ”clean” communications environment using one start bit, eight data
bits and one stop bit the total difference allowed between the trans-
mitter and receiver frequency is approximately 4.6%. Less than
eight data bits will increase this percentage.
Communications Channels A and B
Each communications channel of the SC26C92 comprises a
full-duplex asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART). The
n=
Timer mode generates a square wave.
Counter mode generates a time delay.
Time out mode counts time between received characters.
