Timers in Synchronous Protocols
In synchronous protocols, the timers have no special significance for the CD2401; they are
available to support the protocols. They are started by host commands or by interrupts generated by
the CD2401. General timers 1 and 2 can be started in either of two ways:
These timers can be disabled by a command through the CCR.
Timers in Asynchronous Protocols
The receive timer is restarted from the value programmed in RTPR every time a character is
received and loaded into the FIFO, or data is read by the host. For example, the receive FIFO
threshold is set to eight, and six characters are stored in the receive FIFO. If no more characters are
received and the receiver timer times-out, a receive interrupt is asserted (in DMA mode, DMA
transfer occurs). The host is expected to retrieve all six characters from the receive FIFO.
Assuming the host is still enabling this feature (that is, IER[5]) and if there is no character being
received and receiver timer times-out, a receive exception timeout interrupt (a group 3 interrupt) is
asserted. The timer can be disabled if the value in RTPR is set to ‘0’ or the RET bit (IER[5]) is
cleared.
Transmit Timer
The TTR is used only if the embedded transmit command is enabled in COR2. The delay transmit
command specifies the delay period loaded in the TTR; no further transmit operations are
performed until this timer reaches zero. The current state of the line is held at either ‘0’ for send
break or ‘1’ for inter-character fill.
DMA Operation
The CD2401 uses a simple, but powerful, double-buffering method readily compatible with higher-
level buffer control procedures (such as, circular queues, link lists, and buffer pools). Each
transmitter and receiver is assigned an ‘A’ and ‘B’ buffer. When transmitting, the host processor
alternately fills the A and B buffers, and commands the CD2401 to transmit the buffers one at a
time. When receiving, the CD2401 fills the A and B buffers and informs the host processor when
each is ready.
A simple Ownership Status bit is used for each buffer; this ensures that there are no deadlocks
between the host and the CD2401 regarding the use of a particular buffer.
By using the simple and flexible DMA management of the CD2401, the user host processor is
concerned with transmit/receive data on a block-by-block basis. The user need not be concerned
with character-by-character transfers, or even filling and emptying the FIFOs. DMA control is
user-selectable per-channel and operates independently of one another.
1. By loading a new value to GT1 or GT2 when the timer is not running.
2. By setting the SetTm2 or SetTm1 bits (R/T/MEOIR[5:4]) when terminating an interrupt
service routine. In this case, the value should be written to the appropriate Interrupt Status
register (RISR, TISR, or MISR).
