8 / 38 page Philips Semiconductors Product specification SC28C94 Quad universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (QUART) 1998 Aug 19 8 Timer Mode In the timer mode a symmetrical square wave is generated whose half period is equal in time to division of the selected counter/timer clock frequency by the 16-bit number loaded in the CTLR CTUR. Thus, the frequency of the counter/timer output will be equal to the counter/timer clock frequency divided by twice the value of the CTUR CTLR. While in the timer mode the ISR bit 3 (ISR[3]) will be set each time the counter/timer transitions from 1 to 0. (High to low) This continues regardless of issuance of the stop counter command. ISR[3] is reset by the stop counter command. NOTE: Reading of the CTU and CTL registers in the timer mode is not meaningful. When the C/T is used to generate a baud rate and the C/T is selected through the CSR then the receivers and/or transmitter will be operating in the 16x mode. Calculation for the number ‘n’ to program the counter timer upper and lower registers is shown below. n=2 x 16 x Baud rate desired/(C/T Clock Frequency Often this division will result in a non-integer number; 26.3 for example. One can only program integer numbers to a digital divider. Therefore 26 would be chosen. This gives a baud rate error of 0.3/26.3 which is 1.14%; well within the ability of the asynchronous mode of operation. Counter Mode In the counter mode the counter/timer counts the value of the CTLR CTUR down to zero and then sets the ISR[3] bit and sets the counter/timer output from 1 to 0. It then rolls over to 65,365 and continues counting with no further observable effect. Reading the C/T in the counter mode outputs the present state of the C/T. If the C/T is not stopped, a read of the C/T may result in changing data on the data bus. Timeout Mode The timeout mode uses the received data stream to control the counter. The time-out mode forces the C/T into the timer mode. Each time a received character is transferred from the shift register to the RxFIFO, the counter is restarted. If a new character is not received before the counter reaches zero count, the counter ready bit is set, and an interrupt can be generated. This mode can be used to indicate when data has been left in the Rx FIFO for more than the programmed time limit. If the receiver has been programmed to interrupt the CPU when the receive FIFO is full, and the message ends before the FIFO is full, the CPU will not be interrupted for the remaining characters in the RxFIFO. By programming the C/T such that it would time out in just over one character time, the above situation could be avoided. The processor would be interrupted any time the data stream had stopped for more than one character time. NOTE: This is very similar to the watch dog time of MR0. The difference is in the programmability of the delay time and that the watchdog timer is restarted by either a receiver load to the RxFIFO or a system read from it. This mode is enabled by writing the appropriate command to the command register. Writing an ‘Ax’ to CRA or CRB will invoke the timeout mode for that channel. Writing a ‘Cx’ to CRA or CRB will disable the timeout mode. Only one receiver should use this mode at a time. However, if both are on, the timeout occurs after both receivers have been inactive for the timeout period. The start of the C/T will be on the logical or of the two receivers. The timeout mode disables the regular START/STOP counter commands and puts the C/T into counter mode under the control of the received data stream. Each time a received character is transferred from the shift register to the RxFIFO, the C/T is stopped after one C/T clock, reloaded with the value in CTUR and CTLR and then restarted on the next C/T clock. If the C/T is allowed to end the count before a new character has been received, the counter ready bit, ISR[3], will be set. If IMR[3] is set, this will generate an interrupt. Since receiving a character restarts the C/T, the receipt of a character after the C/T has timed out will clear the counter ready bit, ISR[3], and the interrupt. Invoking the ‘Set Timeout Mode On’ command, CRx=‘Ax’, will also clear the counter ready bit and stop the counter until the next character is received. 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 differences depending on the mode of operation. Please see the detail of the commands under the CTLR CTUR Register descriptions. Time Out Mode Caution When operating in the special time out mode, it is possible to generate what appears to be a “false interrupt”, i.e., an interrupt without a cause. This may result when a time-out interrupt occurs and then, BEFORE the interrupt is serviced, another character is received, i.e., the data stream has started again. (The interrupt latency is longer than the pause in the data strea.) In this case, when a new character has been receiver, the counter/timer will be restarted by the receiver, thereby withdrawing its interrupt. If, at this time, the interrupt service begins for the previously seen interrupt, a read of the ISR will show the “Counter Ready” bit not set. If nothing else is interrupting, this read of the ISR will return a x’00 character. This action may present the appearance of a spurious interrupt. Receiver and Transmitter The QUART has four full-duplex asynchronous receiver/transmitters. The operating frequency for the receiver and transmitter can be selected independently from the baud rate generator, the counter/timer, or from an external input. Registers associated with the communications channel are the mode registers (MR0, MR1 and MR2) Clock Select Register (CSR), Command Register (CR), Status Register (SR), Transmit FIFO (TxFIFO), and the Receive FIFO (RxFIFO). The transmit and receive FIFOs are each eight characters deep. The receive FIFO also stores three status bits with each character. Transmitter The transmitter accepts parallel data from the CPU and converts it to a serial bit stream on the TxD output pin. It automatically sends a start bit followed by the programmed number of data bits, an optional parity bit, and the programmed number of stop bits. The least significant bit is sent first. Following the transmission of the stop bits, if a new character is not available in the TxFIFO, the TxD output remains high and the TxEMT bit in the SR will be set to 1. Transmission resumes and the TxEMT bit is cleared when the CPU loads a new character in the TxFIFO. In the 16X clock mode, this also re-synchronizes the internal 1X transmitter clock so that transmission of the new character begins with minimum delay. If the transmitter is disabled it continues operating until the character currently being transmitted and any characters in the TxFIFO, including parity and stop bits, have been transmitted. New data cannot be loaded to the TxFIFO when the transmitter is disabled. The transmitter can be forced to send a break (a continuous low condition) by issuing a START BREAK command via the CR register. The break is terminated by a STOP BREAK command or a transmitter reset.. TxFIFO The TxFIFO empty positions are encoded as a three bit number for presentation to the bidding logic. The coding will equal the number of bytes that remain to be filled. That is, a binary number of 101 will |
