Description
The low power COMS IMP16C522 is a single device solution for serving two serial input/output ports simultaneously and one fully bi-directional parallel port for the IBM PC ATM PS/2 and compatible systems. The parallel port is full compatible to the Centronics printer port and IBM serial parallel Adapter. Each Universal Asynchronous Receiver and transmitter (UART) is fully programmable.
KEY FEATUREs
● Two fully programmable serial 1/0
channels (DC TO 512K BAUD )
● Tri-state TTL drive capabilities for
bi-directional data bus and control bus
on each channel
● Loopback control for communications
link fault isolation for each UART
● Line break generation and detection
for each UART
● Complete status reporting capabilities
● Generation and stripping of serial
asynchronous data control bits
(start ,stop parity )
● Programmable baud rate generator
and modem control signals for each
channel
● Fully prioritized independent interrupt
system controls for each channel
● 16byte FIFO buffers on both transmit
and receive of each channel to reduce
number of interrupts presented to the
CPU
● Programmable FIFO threshold loves
of 1,4,8,or 14,bytes on each channel
● Two modes of DMA signaling
available for transfer of data
characters to and from FIFO buffers
● Fully bi-directional centronics
compatible parallel port direct printer
interface
● Advanced CMOS low power
technology with single +5voit supply
● 68-pin PLCC package
