SIO PIN DESCRIPTION
GND :
VCC
Ground
:
+ 5 Volts (± 5%)
CS :
Chip Select (input, active low). CS is used to select the MK68564 SIO for accesses to
the internal registers. CS and IACK must not be asserted at the same time.
R/W :
Read/write (input). R/W is the signal from the bus master, indicating wether the current
bus cycle is a Read (high) or Write (low) cycle.
DTACK :
Data Transfer Acknowledge (output, active low, three stateable). DTACK is used to
signal the bus master that data is ready or that data has been accepted by the
MK68564 SIO.
A1-A5 :
D0-D7
Address Bus (inputs). The address bus is used to select one of the internal registers
during a read or write cycle.
Data Bus (bidirectional, threee-stateable). The data bus is used to transfer data to or
from the internal registers during a read or write cycle. It is also used to pass a vector
during an interrupt acknowledge cycle.
CLK :
Clock (input). This input is used to provide the internal timing for the MK68564 SIO.
RESET :
Device Reset (input, active low). RESET disables both receivers and transmitters, forces
TxDA and TxDB to a marking condition, forces the modem controls high and disables
all interrupts. With the exception of the status registers, data registers, and the vector
register, all internal registers are cleared. The vector register is reset to ”0FH”.
INTR :
IACK :
Interrupt Request (output, active low, open drain). INTR is asserted when the MK68564
SIO is requesting an interrupt. INTR is negated during an interrupt acknowledge cycle
or by clearing the pending interrupt(s) through software.
Interrupt acknowledge (input, active low). IACK is used to signal the MK68564 SIO that
the CPU is acknowledging an interrupt. CS and IACK must not be asserted at the same
time.
IEI :
Interrupt Enable In (input, active low). IEI is used to signal the MK68564 SIO that no
higher priority device is requesting interrupt service.
IEO :
Interrupt Enable Out (output, active low). IEO is used to signal lower priority peripherals
that neither the MK68564 SIO nor another higher priority peripheral is requesting
interrupt service.
XTAL1, XTAL2 :
Baud Rate Generator inputs. A crystal may be connected between XTAL1 and XTAL2,
or XTAL1 may be driven with a TTL level clock. When using a crystal, external
capacitors must be connectd. When driving XTAL1 with a TTL level clock, XTAL2 must
be allowed to float.
RxRDYA, RxRDYB:
TxRDYA, TxRDYB :
CTSA, CTSB :
Receiver Ready (outputs, active low). Programmable DMA output for the receiver. The
RxRDY pins pulse low when a character is available in the receive buffer.
Transmitter Ready (outputs, active low). Programmable DMA output for the transmitter.
The TxRDY pins pulse low when the transmit buffer is empty.
Clear to Send (inputs, active low). If Tx Auto Enables is selected, these inputs enable
the transmitter of their respective channels. If Tx Auto Enables is not selected, these
inputs may be used as general purpose input pins. The inputs are Scmit-trigger
buffered to allow slow rise-time input signals.
DCDA, DCDB :
Data Carrier Detect (inputs, active low). If Rx Auto Enables is selected, these inputs
enable the receiver of their respective channels. If Rx Auto Enables is not selected,
these inputs may be used as general purpose input pins. The inputs are Schmit-trigger
buffered to allow slow rise-time input signals.
RxDA, RxDB :
TxDA, TxDB :
Receive Data (inputs, active high). Serial data input to the receiver.
Transmit Data (outputs, active high). Serial data output of the transmitter.

TxCA, TxCB :
RTSA, RTSB :
Receiver Clocks (input/output). Programmable pin, receive clock input, or baud rate
generator output. The inputs are Schmit-trigger buffered to allow slow rise-time input
signals.
Transmitter Clocks (input/output). Programmable pin, transmit clock input, or baud rate
generator output. The inputs are Schmit-trigger buffered to allow slow rise-time input
signals.
Request to Send (outputs, active low). These outputs follow the inverted state
programmed into the RTS bit. When the RTS bit is reset in the asynchronous mode, the
output will not change until the character in the transmitter is completely shifted out.
These pins may be used as general purpose outputs.
DTRA, DTRB :
Data Terminal Ready (outputs, Active low). These outputs follow the inverted state
programmed into the DTR bit. These pins may also be used as general purpose
outputs.
SYNCA, SYNCB :
Synchronization (input/output, active low). The SYNC pin is an output when Monosync,
Bisync, or SDLC mode is programmed. It is asserted when a sync/flag character is
detected by the receiver. The SYNC pin is a general purpose input in the Asynchronous
mode and an input to the receiver in the External Sync Mode.

SIO SYSTEM INTERFACE
INTERRUPT SEQUENCE
The SIO is designed to operate as an independent,
interrupting peripheral, or, when interconnected
with other components, an interrupt priority daisy
chain can be formed.
INTRODUCTION
The MK68564 SIO is designed for simple and effi-
cient interface to a MK68000 CPU system. All data
transfers between the SIO and the CPU are asyn-
chronous to the system clock. The SIO system
timing is derived from the chip select input (CS) du-
ring normal read and write sequences, and from the
interrupt acknowledge input (IACK) during an ex-
ception processing sequence. CS is a function of
address decode and (normally) lower data strobe
(LDS). IACK is afunction oftheinterrupt levelon ad-
dress lines A1, A2, and A3, an interrupt acknow-
ledge function code (FC0-FC2), and LDS.
Independent Operation. Independent operation
requires that the interrupt enable in pin (IEI) be
connected to ground. The SIO starts the interrupt
sequence bydriving the interrupt requestpin (INTR)
low. The CPU responds to the interrupt by starting
an interrupt acknowledge cycle, in which the SIO
IACK pin is driven low. The highest priority interrupt
request intheSIO,atthetimeIACKgoeslow, places
itsvectoron the data bus pins. The SIO releases the
INTRpinanddrivesDTACK low.WhentheCPUhas
acquired the vector, the IACK signal is driven high.
The SIO responds by driving DTACK to a high level
and then three-stating DTACK and D0-D7. If more
than one interrupt request is pending at the start of
an interrupt acknowledge sequence, the SIO will
drive the INTR pin low following the completion of
the interrupt acknowledge cycle. This sequence will
continue until all pending interrupts are cleared. If
the SIO is not requesting an interrupt when IACK
goes low,the SIO will notrespond totheIACKsignal
; DTACK and the data bus will remain three-stated.
Note : CS and IACK can never be asserted at the
same time.
Note : Unused inputs should be pulled up or down,
but never left floating.
READ SEQUENCE
The SIOwill begin a read cycleif, on thefalling edge
of CS, the read-write (R/W) pin is high. The SIO will
respond by decoding the address bus (A1-A5) for
the register selected, by placing the contents of that
register on thedatabuspins (D0-D7), and by driving
the data transfer acknowledge (DTACK) pin low. If
the register selected is not implemented on the SIO,
the data bus pins will be driven high, and then
DTACK will be asserted. When the CPU has acqui-
red the data, the CS signal is driven high, at which
time the SIO will drive DTACK high and then three-
state DTACK and D0-D7.
Daisy Chain Operation. Theinterrupt priority chain
is formed by connecting the interrupt enable out pin
(IEO) of a higher priority part to IEI of the next lower
priority part. The highest priority part in the chain
should have IEI tied to ground. The Daisy Chaining
capability (figures 2 and 3) requires that all parts in
a chain have a common IACK signal. When the
common IACK goes low, all parts freeze and priori-
tize interrupts in parallel. Then priority is passed
down the chain, via IEI and IEO, until a part which
has a pending interrupt, once IEI goes low, passes
a vector, does not propagate IEO, and generates
DTACK.
WRITE SEQUENCE
The SIOwillbegin awrite cycleif, onthefalling edge
of CS, the R/W pin is low. The SIO will respond by
latching the data bus, by decoding the address bus
for the register selected, by loading the register with
the contents of the data bus, and by driving DTACK
low. When the CPU has finished the cycle, the CS
input is driven high. At this time, the SIO will drive
DTACK high and will then three-state DTACK. If the
register selected is not implemented on the SIO, the
normal write sequence will proceed, but the data
bus contents will not be stored.
The state of the IEI pin does not affect the SIO in-
terrupt control logic. The SIOcan generate an inter-
rupt request any time its interrupts are enabled. The
IEO pin is normally high ; it will only go low during
an IACK cycleifIEI is low andno interrupt is pending
in the SIO. The IEO pin willbe forced high whenever
IACK or IEI goes high.

DMA INTERFACE
ARCHITECTURE
The MK68564 SIO contains two independent, full-
duplex channels. Each channel contains a transmit-
ter, receiver, modem control logic, interrupt control
logic, a baud rate generator, ten Read/Write regis-
ters, and two read only status registers. Each chan-
nel can communicate with the bus master using pol-
ling, interrupts, DMA, or any combination of these
three techniques. Each channel also has the ability
to connect thetransmitter output intothereceiver wi-
thout disturbing any external hardware.
The SIO is designed to interface to the 68000 family
DMA’s as a 68000 compatible device, using the cy-
cle steal mode. The SIO provides four outputs
(TxRDYA, RxRDYA, TxRDYB, RxRDYB) for re-
questing servicefrom theDMA.The SIOissues are-
questforservice bypulsing the RDYpinlowfor three
clock (CLK) cycles(see figure 4). TxRDY(when en-
abled) will be active when the transmit buffer be-
comesempty. RxRDY(when enabled) will be active
when a character is available in the receive buffer.
If Receive Interrupt On First Character Only is en-
abledduring aDMA operation and aspecial receive
condition is detected, the RxRDY pin will not be-
come active. Instead, a special receive condition in-
terrupt will be generated by the channel.
Register Set. The register set is the heart of each
channel. A channel is configured for different
communication protocols and interface options by
programming the registers. Table 1 lists all the re-
gisters available in the SIO and their addresses.
Data Register. The Data Register is composed of
two separate registers : a write only register, which
is the Transmit Buffer, and a read only register,
which is the Receive Buffer. The Receive Buffer is
also the top register of a three register stack called
the receive data FIFO.
RESET
There are two ways of resetting the SIO : an indivi-
dual, programmable channel reset and an external
hardware reset.
The individual channel reset is generated by writing
”18H” to the Command Register for the channel se-
lected. All outputs associated with the channel are
resethigh, TxC and RxC areinputs, SYNC isan out-
put, and TxD is forced marking. All R/W registers for
the channel are reset to ”00H”, except thevector re-
gister and the data register, which are not affected.
Vector Register. The Vector Register is different
from the other 24 registers, because it may be ac-
cessed through either Channel A or Channel B du-
ring a R/W cycle. During an Interrupt Acknowledge
cycle, the contents of the Vector Register are pas-
sedto theCPUto be usedas apointer toaninterrupt
serviceroutine. IftheStatus AffectsVector bit isLow
in the Interrupt Control Register, any data written to
the Vector Register will be returned unmodified du-
ring a Read Cycleor an IACK cycle. If the Status Af-
fects Vector bit is High, the lower three bits of the
vectorreturned during aRead orIACKcyclearemo-
dified to reflect the highest priority interrupt pending
in the SIO at that time. The upper five bits written to
theVector Register areunaffected. Afterahardware
reset only, this register contains a ”0FH” value,
which is the MK68000’s uninitialized interrupt vector
assignment.
Readonly status register 1isreset to”01H” (All Sent
set). Break/Abort, Interrupt Pending, and Rx Char-
acter Available bits in read only status register 0 are
reset ; Underrun/EOM, Hunt/Sync, and Tx Buffer
Empty are set ; CTS and DCD bits are set to the in-
verted state of their respective input pins. Any inter-
ruptspending for the channel are reset (any pending
interrupts in the other channel will not be affected).
An externalhardware reset occurswhen the RESET
pin is driven low for at least one clock (CLK) cycle.
Both channels are reset as listed above, and the
vector register is reset to ”0FH”.

zero deletion when indicated. Upon receiving five
contiguous ones, the sixth bit is inspected. If the
sixth bit is a 0, it is deleted from the data stream. If
the sixth bit is a 1, the seventh bit is inspected. If the
seventh bit is a 0, a Flag sequence has been recei-
ved ; if the seventh bit is a 1,an Abort sequence has
been received.
The transmit and receive data paths for each chan-
nel are shown in figure 6. The receiver has three
8-bit buffer registers in a FIFO arrangement (to pro-
vide a 3-byte delay) in addition to the 8-bit receive
shift register. This arrangement creates additional
time for the CPU to service an interrupt at the begin-
ning of a block of high-speed data. The receiver er-
ror FIFO stores parity and framing errors and other
types of status information for each of the three
bytes in the receive data FIFO. The receive error FI-
FO is loaded at the same time as the receive data
FIFO. The contents of the receive error are read
through the upper four bits in Status Register 1.
Incoming data is routed through one of several
paths, depending onthemodeand characterlength.
In the Asynchronous modes, serial data is entered
into the 3-bit buffer, if it has a character length of se-
ven or eight bits, or the data is entered into the 8-bit
receive shift register, if it has a length of five or six
bits.
The reformatted data from the receive sync register
enters the 3-bit buffer and is transferred to the re-
ceiveshift register. Note that the SDLCreceive ope-
ration also begins in the Hunt Phase, during which
timethe SIO tries to match theassembled character
in the receive sync register with the flag pattern in
Sync Word Register 2. Once the first flag character
is recognized, all subsequent data isrouted through
the path described above, regardless of character
length.
Although the same CRC checker is used for both
SDLC and synchronous data, the path taken for
each mode is different. In Bisync protocol, the byte-
oriented operation requires that the CPU decide
whether or not to include the data character in the
CRC calculation. To allow the CPU ample time to
make this decision, the SIO provides an 8-bit delay
before the data enters the CRC checker. In the
SDLC mode, no delay is provided, since CRCis cal-
culated on all data between theopening and closing
flags.
In the Synchronous mode, the data path is determi-
ned by the phase of the receive process currently in
operation. A Synchronous Receive operation be-
gins with the receiver in the Hunt phase, during
which time the receiver searches the incoming data
stream for a bit pattern that matches the prepro-
grammed sync characters (or flags in the SDLC
mode). If the device is programmed for Monosync
Hunt, a match is made with a single sync character
stored in Sync Word Register 2. In Bisync Hunt, a
match is made with the dual sync characters stored
in Sync Word Registers 1 and 2. In either case, the
incoming data passes through the receive sync re-
gister and is compared against the programmed
sync characters in SyncWord Registers 1 and 2.
The transmitter has an 8-bit transmit data register,
which is loaded from the internal bus, and a 20-bit
transmit shift register, which can be loaded from
Sync Word Register 1, Sync Word Register 2, and
the transmit data register. Sync Word Registers 1
and 2 contain sync characters in the Monosync, Bi-
sync,or External Sync modes, or address field (one
character long) and flag, respectively, in the SDLC
mode. During Synchronous modes, information
contained in Sync Word Registers 1 and 2 is loaded
intothe transmit shift register at the beginning of the
message and, as a time filler, in the middle of the
message if a Transmit Underrun condition occurs.
In SDLCmode, theflags areloaded intothe transmit
shift register at the beginning and end of the mes-
sage.
In the Monosync mode, a match between the sync
character programmed into Sync Word Register 2
and the character assembled in thereceive sync re-
gister establishes synchronization.
In the Bysync mode, incoming data is shifted to the
receive shift register, while the next eight bits of the
message are assembled in the receive sync regis-
ter. The match between the assembled character in
the sync register and the programmed character in
Sync Word Register 2, and between the character
in the shift register and the programmed character
in Sync Word Register 1 establishes synchroniza-
tion. Once synchronization is established, incoming
data bypasses the receive sync register and directly
enters the 3-bit buffer.
Asynchronous data in the transmit shift register is
formattedwith startand stopbits, and it isshiftedout
to thetransmit multiplexer at the selected clockrate.
Synchronous (Monosync, Bisync, or External Sync)
data is shifted out to the transmit multiplexer and al-
so the CRC generator at the x1 clock rate.
SDLC/HDLC data is shifted out through the zero in-
sertion logic, which is disabled while flags are being
sent. Forallotherfields (address, control, and frame
check), a0isinserted followingfive contiguous ones
In the SDLC mode, all incoming data passes

canbecome empty. When enabled, the receiver can
interrupt the CPU in one of three ways :
Interrupt On First Character Only
Interrupt On All Receive Characters
Interrupt On A Special Receive Condition.
I/O CAPABILITIES
The SIO offers the choice of Polling, Interrupt (vec-
tored or non-vectored), and DMATransfer modesto
transfer data, status, and control information to and
from the CPU or other bus master.
Interrupt On First Character Only.This mode is
normally used to start a software Polling loop or a
DMA transfer routine using the RxRDY pin. In this
mode, the SIO generates an interrupt on the first
character received after this mode is selected and,
thereafter, only generates an interrupt if a Special
Receive Condition occurs. The Special Receive
Conditions that can cause an interrupt in this mode
are : Rx Overrun Error, Framing Error (in Asynchro-
nous modes), and End Of Frame (in SDLC mode).
This mode is reinitialized by the Enable Interrupt On
Next Rx Character command. If a Special Receive
Condition interrupt occurs in this interrupt mode, the
data with the special condition is held in the receive
data FIFO until an Error Reset Command is issued.
Polling. The Polled mode avoids interrupts. Status
Registers 0 and 1 are updated at appropriate times
for each function being performed (for example,
CRC Error status valid at the end of the message).
All the interrupt modes of the SIO must be
disabled to operate the device in a polled environ-
ment.
While initsPolling sequence, theCPUexamines the
status contained in Status Register 0 for each chan-
nel. The state of the status bits in Status Register 0
servesas an acknowledge to thePoll inquiry. Status
bits D0and D2 indicatethat a receive ortransmit da-
ta transfer is needed. The rest of the status bits in
Status Register 0 indicate special statusconditions.
The receiver error condition bits in Status Register
1 donothave to be read until the RxCharacter Avai-
lable status bit in Status Register 0 is set to a one.
InterruptOnAll Receive Characters. Inthismode,
an interrupt is generated whenever thereceive data
FIFO contains a character or a Special Receive
Condition occurs. The Special Receive Conditions
that can cause an interrupt in this mode are : Rx O-
verrun Error, Framing Error (in Asynchronous
modes), End of Frame (in SDLC mode), and Parity
Error (if selected).
Interrupts. The SIO offers an elaborate interrupt
scheme to provide fast interrupt response in real-
time applications. The interrupt vector points to an
interrupt service routine in the memory. To service
operations inboth channels and to eliminate the ne-
cessity of writing a status analysis routine (as requi-
red fora polling scheme), the SIO can modify the in-
terrupt vector soitpoints to one of eight interrupt ser-
viceroutines. This is done under program control by
setting the Status Affects Vector bit in the Interrupt
Control Register ofchannel Aor channel B,to aone.
When this bit is set, the interrupt vector is modified
according to the assigned priority of the various in-
terrupting conditions.
Interrupt On A Special Receive Condition. The
Special Receive Condition interrupt is not, as such,
a separate interrupt mode. Before a Special Re-
ceiveCondition can cause aninterrupt, either theIn-
terrupt On First Character Only or Interrupt On All
Receive Characters mode must be selected. The
Special Receive Condition interrupt will modify the
receive interrupt vectorif Status AffectsVector isen-
abled. The Special Receive Condition status is dis-
played in the upper four bits of Status Register 1.
Two of the conditions causing a special receive in-
terrupt arelatched when they occur;they are: Parity
Error and Rx Overrun Error. These status bits may
only be reset by an Error Reset command. When ei-
ther of these conditions occur, a read of Status Re-
gister 1 will reflect any errors in the current word in
the receive buffer plus any parity or overrun errors
since the last Error Reset command was issued.
Note : If the Status Affects Vector bit is set in either
channel, the vector is modified for both channels.
This is the only control bit that operates in this man-
ner in the SIO.
Transmit interrupts, Receive interrupts, and Exter-
nal/Status interrupts are the sources of interrupts.
Each interrupt source is enabled under program
control with Channel A having a higher priority than
Channel B, and with Receiver, Transmitter, and Ex-
ternal/Status interrupts prioritized in thatorder within
each channel. When the Transmit interrupt is en-
abled, the CPU is interrupted by the transmit buffer
becoming empty. This implies that the transmitter
must have had a data character written into it so t
External/Status Interrupts. The main function of
the External/Status interrupt is to monitor the signal
transitions of the CTS, DCD, and SYNC pins ; how-
ever, an External/Status interrupt is also caused by
a Transmit Underrun condition orby the detection of
a Break (Asynchronous mode) or Abort (SDLC
mode)sequence in thereceived data stream. When
any one of the above conditions occur, the exter-
11/46
MK68564
nal/status logiclatches the current stateof all fivein-
put conditions, and generates an interrupt. To reini-
tialize the external/status logic to detect another
transition, a Reset External/Status Interrupts
command must be issued. The Break/Abort condi-
tionallows the SIO togenerate aninterrupt when the
Break/Abort sequence is detected and terminated.
This feature facilitates the proper termination of the
current message, correct initialization of the next
message, and the accurate timing of the Break/A-
bort condition in external logic.
SELF TEST
When the Loop Mode bit is set in theCommand Re-
gister,thereceiver shiftclockinputpin (RxC) and the
receiver data input pin (RxD) are electrically dis-
connected from the internal logic. The transmit data
output pin (TxD) is connected to the internal
receiver data logic, and the transmit shift clock pin
(TxC)isconnected to theinternal receiver shiftclock
logic. All other features of the SIO are unaffected.
BAUD RATE GENERATORS
Each channel in the SIO contains a programmable
baud rate generator (BRG). Each BRG consists of
an 8-bit time constant register, an 8-bit down coun-
ter, a control register, and a flip-flop on the output to
provide a square wave signal out. In addition to the
flip-flop on the output, there is also a flip-flop on the
input clock; therefore, themaximum outputfrequen-
cy of theBRG isone-forth of theinput clock frequen-
cy. This maximum output frequency occurs when
divide by four mode is selected, and the time
constant register is loaded with the minimum count
of ”01H”. The equation to determine the output fre-
quency is :
DMA Transfer
The SIOprovides two output signals per channel for
connection to a DMA controller ; they are TxRDY
and RxRDY. The outputs are enabled under soft-
ware control by writing to the Interrupt Control Re-
gister. Both outputs will pulse Low for three system
clock cycles when their input conditions are active.
TxRDY will be active when the Transmit Buffer
becomesempty. RxRDY will be active when achar-
acter is available in the Receive Buffer. If a Special
Receive Condition occurs when Interrupt On First
Character Only mode is selected, a receiver inter-
rupt will be generated and RxRDY will not become
active. This will automatically inform the CPU of a
discrepancy in the data transfer.

For example, when the time constant register is loa-
ded with ”01H” and divide by four is selected, one
output clock will occur for every four input clocks. If
the time constant value loaded is ”00H” (256 deci-
mal) instead of ”01H” and divide by 64 is selected,
one output clock will occur for every 16384 input
clocks. Note that the minimum count value is ”01H”
(1 decimal), and the maximum count value is ”00H”
(256 decimal).
To set up the SIO for Asynchronous operation, the
following registers need to be initialized : Mode
Control Register, Interrupt Control Register, Recei-
ver Control Register, and Transmitter Control
Register. The Mode Control Register must be
programmed before the other registers to assure
proper operation of the SIO. The following registers
are used to transfer data or to communicate status
between the SIO and the CPU or other bus master
when operating in Asynchronous modes
Command Register, Status Register 0, Status Re-
gister 1, Data Register, and the Vector Register.

The output of the baud rate generator may be pro-
grammed to drive the transmitter (BRG output on
TxC), the receiver (BRG output on RxC), both (BRG
output on TxC and RxC), or neither (TxC and RxC
are inputs). After a reset, the baud rate generator is
disabled, divide by four is selected, and TxC and
RxC are inputs.

The baud rate generator should be disabled before

necessary because no attempt was made to syn-

ASYNCHRONOUS OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
Many types of Asynchronous operations are perfor-
med by the MK68564 SIO. Figure 9 represents aty-
pical Asynchronous message format and some of
the options available on the SIO. The transmit pro-
cess inserts start, stop, and parity bits to a variable
data format and supplies a serial data stream to the
Transmit Data output (TxD). The receiver takes the
data from the Receive Data input (RxD) and strips
away expected start and stop bits at a programmed
clockrate. Itprovides error checking for overrun, pa-
rity, and carrier-loss errors, and, if desired, provides
interrupts for these conditions.

The SIO provides five I/O lines that maybe used for
modemcontrol, for external interrupts, oras general
purpose I/O. The Request To Send (RTS) and Data
Terminal Ready (DTR) pins are outputs that follow
the inverted state of their respective bits in the
Transmitter Control Register. The RTS pin can also
be usedto signal theend of amessage inAsynchro-
nous modes, as explained below in the transmitter
section. The Data Carrier Detect (DCD), Clear To
Send (CTS), and SYNC pins are inputs to the SIO
in Asynchronous modes. DCD and CTS can be u-
sed as auto enables to the receiver and transmitter,
respectively, or if External/Status Interrupts are en-
abled all three input pins will be monitored for a
change of status. If these inputs change fora period
of time greater than the minimum specified pulse
width, an interrupt will be generated.
Transmit Characteristics. The SIO automatically
inserts astartbit, the programmed parity bit (odd, e-
ven, or no parity), and the programmed number of
stopbits tothe data character to be transmitted. The
transmitter can transmit from one to eight data bits
per character. All characters are transmitted least-
significant bit first. When the character length pro-
grammed is six or seven bits, the unused bits of the
transmit buffer are automatically ignored. When a
character length of five bits or less is programmed,
the data loaded into the transmit buffer must be for-
matted as described in the Transmitter Control Re-
gister part of theRegister Description section. Serial
data is shifted out of the TxD pin on the falling edge
of the Transmit Clock (TxC) at a rate equal to 1,
1/16th, 1/32nd, or 1/64th of TxC.
Data Transfer. TheSIO will signal the CPU orother
bus master with a transmit interrupt request and set
the Tx Buffer Empty bit in Status Register 0, every
time the contents of the transmit buffer are loaded
into the transmit shift register. The interrupt request
will be cleared when a new character is loaded into
the transmit buffer, or a Reset Tx Interrupt Pending
command (Command 5) is issued. If Command 5 is
issued, the transmit buffer will have to be loaded be-
fore any additional transmit interrupt requests are
generated. The Tx Buffer Empty bit is reset when a
new character is loaded into the transmit buffer.
In the following discussion, all interrupt modes are
assumed enabled.
ASYNCHRONOUS TRANSMIT
Start of Transmission. The SIO will start transmit-
ting data when the Transmit Enable bit is set to a
one, and acharacter has been loaded intothe trans-
mit buffer. If the TxAuto Enables bit is set, the SIO
willwait for a Low on the Clear ToSend input (CTS)
before starting data transmission. The Tx Auto En-
ables feature allows the programmer to send the
first data character of the message to the SIO wi-
thout waiting for CTS to go Low. In all cases, the
Transmit Enable bit mustbe set before transmission
can begin. The transitions on the CTS pin will gene-
rate External/Status interrupt requests and also
latch up the external/status logic. The external/sta-
tus logic should be rearmed by issuing a Reset Ex-
ternal/Status Interrupts command.
The All Sent bit in Status Register 1 is used to indi-
cate when all data in the shift register has been
transmitted, and thetransmitbufferisempty. This bit
is Low, while the transmitter is sending characters,
and itwillgoHigh one bittimeafterthetransmit clock
that clocks out the last stop bit of the character on
the TxD pin. No interrupts are generated by the All
Sent bit transitions. The Request To Send (RTS) bit
14/46
MK68564
in the Transmitter Control Register may also be u-
sed to signal the end of transmission. If this bit is set
to aone,its associated output pin (RTS)willgo Low.
When this bit is reset to a zero, the RTS pin will go
High one bit time after the transmit clock that clocks
out thelaststop bit, onlyifthetransmit buffer isemp-
ty.
Character Available bit is reset to a zero when the
receive buffer is read.
Aftera character is received, itis checked forthe fol-
lowing error conditions :
Parity Error. Ifparity is enabled, the Parity Error bit
in Status Register 1 is setto a one whenever thepa-
rity bit of the received character does not match the
programmed parity. Once this bit is set, it remains
set (latched), until an Error Reset command
(Command 6) is issued. A Special Receive Condi-
tioninterrupt is generated when thisbitisset,if parity
is programmed as a Special Receive Condition.
The Transmit Data output (TxD) is held marking
(High) after a reset or when the transmitter has no
data to send. Under program control, the Send
Break command can be issued to hold TxD spacing
(Low) until the command is cleared, even if the
transmitter is not enabled.
Framing Error. The CRC/Framing Error bit in Sta-
tus Register 1 is set to a one, if the character is as-
sembled withoutastopbit (a Low level detected ins-
teadofastopbit). Thisbit isset only forthecharacter
on which the framing error occurred ; it is updated
at everycharacter time. Detection of aframing error
adds an additional one-half of a bit time to the char-
acter time, so the framing error is not interpreted as
a new startbit. ASpecial ReceiveCondition interrupt
is generated when this bit is set..
ASYNCHRONOUS RECEIVE
Asynchronous operation begins when the Receiver
Enable bit in the Receiver Control Register is set to
a one. If the Rx Auto Enables bit isalso set, the Data
Carrier Detect (DCD) input pin must be Low as well.
The receiver will start assembling a character as
soon as a valid start bit is detected, if a clock mode
other than x1 is selected. A valid start bit is a High-
to-Low transition on the Receive Data input (RxD)
with the Low time lasting at least one-half bit time.
The High-to-Low transition startsan internal counter
and, at mid-bit time, the counter output is used to
sample the input signal to detect if it is still Low.
When this condition is satisfied, the following data
bits are sampled at mid-bit timeuntil theentirechar-
acter is assembled. The start bit detection logic is
then rearmed to detect the next High-to-Low trans-
ition. If thex1 clock mode isselected, the start bitde-
tection logic is disabled, and bit synchronization
must be accomplished externally. Receive data is
sampled on the rising edge of the Receiver Clock
(RxC).
Overrun Error. If four or more characters are recei-
ved before the CPU (or other bus master) reads the
receive buffer, the fourth character assembled will
replace the third character in the receive data FIFO.
If morethan four characters have beenreceived,the
last character assembled will replace the third char-
acter in the data FIFO. The character that has been
written over is flagged with an overrun error in the
error FIFO.
When this character is shifted to the top of the re-
ceive data FIFO, the Receive Overrun Error bit in
Status Register 1 is set to a one ; the error bit is lat-
ched in the status register, and a Special Receive
Condition interrupt is generated. Like Parity Error,
this bit can only be reset by an Error Reset
Command.
The receiver may be programmed to assemble five
to eight data bits, plus a parity bit, into a character.
The character is right-justified in the shift register
and thentransferredtothe receive dataFIFO. All da-
ta transfers to the FIFO are in eight-bit groups. Ifthe
character length assembled is less than eight bits,
the receiver inserts ones in the unused bits. If parity
is enabled, the parity bit is transferred with the char-
acter, unless eight bits per character is program-
med, inwhich case, the parity bit is stripped from the
character before transfer.
Break Condition. A break character is defined as
a start bit, an all zero data word, and a zero in place
of the stop bit. When a break character is detected
in the receive data stream, the Break/Abort bit in
Status Register 0 is set to a one, and an Exter-
nal/Status interrupt is requested. This interrupt is
then followed by a Framing Error interrupt request
when the CRC/Framing Error bit in Status Register
1 is set. A Reset External/Status Interrupts
command (Command 2) should be issued to reini-
tialize the break detection interrupt logic. The recei-
ver will monitor the data stream input for the termi-
nation of the break sequence. When this condition
is detected, the Break/Abort bit will be reset, if
A Receiver Interrupt request isgenerated everytime
a character is shifted to the top of the receive data
FIFO, if Interrupt On All Receive Characters mode
is selected. The Rx Character Available bit in Status
Register 0is also set to aone every time acharacter
is shifted tothe top of thereceive data FIFO. The Rx
15/46
MK68564
Command 2 has been issued, and another Exter-
nal/Status interrupt request will be generated. This
interrupt should also be handled by issuing
Command 2 to reinitialize the external/status logic.
At the end of the break sequence, asinglenull char-
acter will be left in the receive data FIFO. This char-
acter should be read and discarded.
mode), the transmitter transmits the sync character
in Sync Word Register 1.The receiver compares the
single sync character with the programmed sync
character stored in Sync Word Register 2. A match
implies character synchronization and enables data
transfer. The SYNC pin is used as an output in this
mode and is active for the part of the receive clock
that detects the sync character.
Because Parity Error and Receive Overrun Error
flags are latched, the error status that is read from
Status Register 1 reflects an error in the current
word in the receive data FIFO, plus any parity or o-
verrun errors received since the last Error Reset
command. To keep correspondence between the
state of the error FIFO and the contents of the re-
ceive data FIFO, Status Register 1 should be read
before the receive buffer. If the status is read after
the data and more than one character is stacked in
the data FIFO during the read of the receive buffer,
the status flags read will be for the next word. Keep
in mind that whena character is shiftedup to the top
of the data FIFO (the receive buffer), its error flags
are shifted into Status Register 1
BISYNC. IntheBisync mode (16-bit syncmode), the
transmitter transmits the sync character in Sync
Word Register 1 followed by the sync character in
Sync Word Register 2. The receiver compares the
two contiguous sync characters with the program-
med synccharacters stored inSync Word Registers
1 and 2. A match implies character synchronization
and enables data transfer. TheSYNCpin is used as
an output in this mode and is active for the part of
the receive clock that detects the sync characters.
External Sync. In the External Sync mode, the
transmitter transmits the sync character in Sync
Word Register 1. Character synchronization for the
receiver is established externally. The SYNC pin is
an input that indicates that external character syn-
chronization has been achieved. After the sync pat-
tern is detected, the external logic must wait for two
fullReceive Clock cycles toactivate the SYNC input
pin(seefigure 11). TheSYNCinput pinmust be held
Low until character synchronization is lost. Charac-
ter assembly begins on the rising edge of the Re-
ceive Clock that precedes the falling edge of the
SYNC input pin.
.An exception to the normal flow of data through the
receive data FIFO occurs when the Receive Inter-
rupt On First Character Only mode is selected. A
Special Receive Condition interrupt in this mode
holds the error data, and the character itself (even
if read from the data FIFO) until the Error Reset
command (command 6)isissued. This prevents fur-
ther data from becoming available in the receiver,
until Command 6 is issued, and allows CPU inter-
vention on the character with the error even if DMA
or block transfer techniques are being used.
In all cases, afterareset (hardware or software), the
receiver is in the Hunt phase, during which time the
SIO looks for character synchronization. The Hunt
phase can begin only when the receiver is enabled,
and data transfer can begin only when character
synchronization has been achieved. If character
synchronization islost, theHunt phase canbere-en-
tered by setting the Enter Hunt Mode bit in the Re-
ceiver Control Register. In the transmit mode, the
transmitter always sends the programmed number
of syncbits (8 or 16), regardless of the bits perchar-
acter programmed.
In theMonosync, Bisync, and External Sync modes,
assembly of received data continues until the SIO is
reset, or until the receiver is disabled (by command
or theDCD pin inthe RxAuto Enables mode),or un-
til the CPU sets the Enter Hunt Mode bit.
SYNCHRONOUS OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
Before describing byte-oriented, synchronous
transmission and reception, the three typesof char-
acter synchronization - Monosync, Bysync, and Ex-
ternal Sync - require some explanation. These
modes use the x1 clock for both Transmit and Re-
ceiveoperations. Datais sampled onthe rising edge
of the Receive Clock input (RxC). Transmitter data
transitions occur on the falling edge of the Transmit
Clock input (TxC).
The differences between Monosync, Bisync, and
External Sync are in the manner in which initial re-
ceive character synchronization is achieved. The
mode of operation must be selected before sync
characters are loaded, because the registers are u-
sed differently in the various modes. Figure 10
showsthe formats for all three synchronous modes.
After initial synchronization has been achieved, the
operation of the Monosync, Bisync, and External
Sync modes is quite similar. Any differences are
specified in the following text.
To set up the SIO for Synchronous operations, the
following registers need to be initialized : Mode
MONOSYNC. In the Monosync mode (8-bit sync

Control Register, Interrupt Control Register, Recei-
ver Control Register, Transmitter Control Register,
Sync Word 1, and Sync Word 2. The Mode Control
Register must be programmed before other regis-
ters to assure proper operation of the SIO. The fol-
lowing registers are used to transfer data or
communicate status between the SIO and the CPU
or other bus master : Command Register, Status
Register 0, Status Register 1, Data Register, and
the Vector Register.
odd-even or no parity, x1 clock mode, 8- or 16-bit
sync character(s), CRC polynomial, Transmit En-
ables, interrupt modes, and transmit character
length. If Parity is enabled, the transmitter will only
add a parity bit to a character that is loaded into the
transmit buffer ; it will not add a parity bit to theauto-
matically inserted sync character(s) or the CRC
characters.
One of two polynomials may be used with Synchro-
nous modes, CRC-16(X16 + X15 + X2 +1)orSDLC-
CRC (X16 + X12 + X5 + 1). For either polynomial
(SDLC mode not selected), the CRC generator and
checker are reset to all zeros. Both the receiver and
transmitter use the same polynomial.
The SIO provides four I/O lines in Synchronous
modes that may be used for modem control, for ex-
ternalinterrupts, or as general purpose I/O.The Re-
quest To Send (RTS) and Data Terminal Ready
(DTR) pins are outputs that follow the inverted state
of their respective bits in the Transmit Control Re-
gister. The Data Carrier Detect (DCD) and Clear To
Send (CTS) pins areinputs that canbe used as auto
enables to the receiver and transmitter, respective-
ly. If External/Status Interrupts are enabled, the
DCD and CTS pins will be monitored for a change
of status. If these inputs change for a period of time
greater than the minimum specified pulse width, an
interrupt will be generated.
After reset (hardware or software), or when the
transmitter is not enabled, the Transmit Data (TxD)
output pin is held High (marking). Under program
control, theSend Breakbit intheTransmitterControl
Register can be set to a one, forcing the TxD output
pin to a Low level (spacing), even if the transmitter
is notenabled. Thespacing condition willpersist un-
til the Send Break bit is reset to a zero. A program-
med break iseffectiveas soon asit iswritteninto the
Transmit Control Register ; any characters in the
transmit buffer and transmit shift register are lost.
In the following discussion, all interrupt modes are
assumed enabled.
If thetransmit buffer isempty whentheTransmit En-
able bit is set to a one, the transmitter will start sen-
ding 8- or 16-bit sync characters. Continuous syncs
will be transmitted on the TxD output pin, as long as
no data is loaded into the transmit buffer. Note, if a

character is loaded into the transmit buffer before
enabling the transmitter, that character will be sent
in place of the sync character(s).
character length is six or seven bits, the unused bits
in the transmit buffer are ignored. If a word length of
five bits per character or less is selected, the data
loadedinto the transmit buffer must be formatted as
described inthe Transmit Control register partof the
Register Description section.
Start of Transmission. Transmission will begin
with the loading of the first data character into the
transmit buffer, if the transmitter is already enabled.
For CRC to be calculated correctly on each mes-
sage, the CRC generator must be reset to all zeros
before the first data character is loaded into the
transmit buffer. This is accomplished by issuing a
Reset Tx CRC Generator command in the
Command Register.
The number of bits per character to be transmitted
can be changed on the fly. Any data written to the
transmit buffer, after the bits per character field is
changed, are affected by the change. The same is
true of any characters in the buffer at the time the
bits per character field is changed. The change in
the number of bits per character does not affect the
character in the process of being shifted out.
Synchronous Transmit Characteristics. In all
Synchronous modes, characters are sent with the
least-significant bits first. All data isshifted out of the
Transmit Data pin (TxD) on the falling edge of the
Transmit Clock (TxC). The transmitter can transmit
from one to eight data bits per character. This re-
quires right-hand justification of data written to the
transmit buffer, if the selected word length is less
thaneight bits percharacter. When theprogrammed
A transmitted message can be terminated by CRC
and sync characters, by sync characters only, or by
pad characters (replacing the sync character(s) in
the Sync Word Registers with pad characters). How
a message is terminated is controlled by the Tx Un-
derrun/EOM latch in Status Register 0.

Data Transfer. A Transmit Interrupt is generated
each time the transmit buffer becomes empty. The
interrupt may be satisfied either by writing another
character into the transmit buffer or by resetting the
Transmit Interrupt Pending latch with a Reset Tx In-
terrupt Pending command. Ifthe interrupt issatisfied
with this command, and nothing more is written into
the transmit buffer, there canbe no further Transmit
Interrupts due to a Buffer Empty condition, because
it is the process of the buffer becoming empty that
causes the interrupts. This situation does cause a
Transmit Underrun condition when the data in the
shift register is shifted out.
the transmitter has no data to send. A Transmit Un-
derrun condition will cause an External/Status Inter-
rupt to be generated whenever the Transmit Under-
run/EOM Latch is set.
For sync character insertion only, at the termination
of amessage, a TransmitInterrupt isgenerated only
after the first automatically inserted sync character
is loaded into the transmit shift register. The status
bits in Status Register 0 indicate that the Transmit
Underrun/EOM Latch and the Tx Buffer Empty bit
are set.
For CRC insertion, followed by sync characters, at
the termination of a message, the Transmit Under-
run/EOM Latch is set, and the Tx Buffer Empty bit
is reset while the CRC characters are being sent.
When the CRC characters are completely transmit-
ted, the Tx Buffer Empty status bit is set, and a
Transmit Interrupt is generated, indicating to the
CPU that another message can begin. This Trans-
mit Interrupt occurs when the first sync character
following the CRC characters is loaded into the
transmit shift register. If no more messages are to
be transmitted, theprogram canterminate transmis-
sion by disabling the transmitter.
Another way of detecting when the transmitter re-
quiresserviceistopoll theTxBufferEmpty bit inSta-
tus Register 0. This bit is set to a one every time the
data in the transmit buffer is downloaded into the
transmit shift register. When data is written to the
transmit buffer, this bit is reset to zero.
The SIO has all the signals and controls necessary
to implement a DMA transfer routine for the trans-
mitter. The routine may be configured to enable the
DMA controller, after the first character is written to
the transmit buffer, and then using the TxRDY out-
put pin to signal the DMA that the transmitter re-
quires service. If a data character is not loaded into
the transmit buffer by the time the transmit shift re-
gister is empty, the SIO enters the Transmit Under-
run condition.
CRC Generation. Setting the Tx CRC Enable bit in
the Transmit Control Register initiates CRC accu-
mulation when the program sends the first data
character to the SIO. To ensure CRC is calculated
correctly oneach message, theReset Tx CRCGen-
erator command should be issued before the first
data character of the message is sent to the SIO.
Transmit Underrun/End of Message. When the
transmitter has no further data to transmit, the SIO
inserts filler characters to maintain synchronization.
The SIO has twoprogrammable optionsforhandling
this situation : sync characters can be inserted, or
the CRC characters generated so far can be sent,
followed by sync characters. These options are con-
trolled by the state of the Transmit Underrun/EOM
Latch in Status Register 0.
The Tx CRC Enable bit can be changed on the fly
at any point in the message to include or exclude a
particular data character from CRC accumulation.
The Tx CRC Enable bit should be in the desired
state when the data character is loaded from the
transmit data buffer into the transmit shift register.
To ensure this bit is in the proper state, the Tx CRC
Enable bit should beloaded before sending thedata
character to the SIO.
Following a hardware or software reset, the Trans-
mit Underrun/EOM Latch is set to aone. This allows
sync characters to beinserted when there is nodata
to send. CRC is not calculated on the automatically
inserted sync characters. To allow CRC
characters to be sent when the transmitter has no
data,the Transmit Underrun/EOM Latchmust bere-
set to zero. This latch is reset by issuing a Reset Tx
Underrun/EOM Latch command in the Command
Register. Following the CRC characters, the SIO
sends sync characters to terminate the message.
Transmit Termination. The SIO is equipped with a
special termination feature that maintains datainte-
grity and validity. Ifthe transmitter is disabled (by re-
setting the Transmit Enable bit or using the Tx Auto
Enable signal) while a data or sync character is
being transmitted, the character is transmitted as u-
sual but is followed by amarking line insteadof sync
or CRC characters. When the transmitter is disa-
bled,acharacter inthetransmit buffer remains inthe
buffer. If the transmitter is disabled while CRC char-
acters arebeing transmitted, the16-bit transmission
is completed, but the remaining bits of the CRC
characters are replaced by sync characters.
There is no restriction as to when, in the message,
the Transmit Underrun/EOM Latch canbereset, but
once the reset command is issued, the 16-bit CRC
is sent and followed by sync characters the firsttime

Bisync Protocol Transmission. In aBisync Proto-
col operation, once synchronization is achieved be-
tween the transmitter and receiver, fill characters
are inserted to maintain that synchronization when
the transmitter has no more data to send. The diffe-
rent options available intheSIO are described in the
Transmit Underrun/End Of Messagepartof thissec-
tion. If pad characters are to be sentin placeof sync
characters following the transmission of the CRC,
the program can set the SIO transmitter to eight bits
per character and then load ”FFH” to the transmit
buffer while the CRC characters are being sent. Al-
ternatively, thesync characters in Sync Word Regis-
ters 1 and 2 can be redefined to be pad characters
during this time. The following example is included
to clarify this point :
dingaDLE character into Sync Word Register 1and
a SYNC character into Sync Word Register 2.
The SIO always transmits two sync characters (16
bits) in Bisync mode. If additional sync characters
are to be transmitted before a message, the CPU
can delayloading data tothetransmit bufferuntil the
required number of syncs have been sent. No CRC
calculations are done on any automatically inserted
sync characters. An alternate method of sending
additional sync characters is to load the sync char-
acters into the transmit buffer, in which case the
transmitter will treat the characters as data. The Tx
CRC Enable bit should not be set, until true data is
going to be loaded into the buffer, to avoid perfor-
ming CRC calculations on the additional sync char-
acters.
The SIO interrupts theCPUwithaTransmit Interrupt
when the Tx Buffer Empty bit is set.
SYNCHRONOUS RECEIVE
Initialization. Byte-oriented receive programs are
usually initialized with the following parameters :
odd-even ornoparity, x1 clockmode(necessary be-
cause of the start bit detection logic), 8- or 16-bit
sync character(s), CRC polynomial, Receiver En-
ables, interrupt modes, and receive character
length. Care must be taken if Parity is enabled. The
receiver will usually detect a Parity Error on all sync
characters, after synchronization is achieved, and
on the CRC characters.
The CPU recognizes that the last character (ETX) of
the message has already been sent to the SIO
transmit buffer by examining the internal program
status.
To force the SIO to send CRC, the CPU issues the
Reset Tx Underrun/EOM Latch command and
clears the current Transmit Interrupt with the Reset
Tx Interrupt Pending command. Resetting the inter-
rupt with this command prevents the SIO from re-
questing more data. The SIO then begins to send
CRC (because the transmitter is in an underrun
condition) and sets the Transmit Underrun/EOM
Latch, which causes an External/Status Interrupt.
Receiver Hunt Mode. Afterthe SIO is initialized for
a Synchronous receive operation, the receiver is in
the Huntphase. During theHunt phase, thereceiver
does a bit-by-bit comparison of the incoming data
stream and the sync character(s) stored inthe Sync
Word Register 2 (for Monosync mode) and Sync
Word Registers 1 and 2 (for Bisync mode). When a
matchoccurs, theHunt phaseis terminated, and the
following data bits are assembled into the program-
med character length and loaded into the receive
data FIFO.
The CPU satisfies the External/Status Interrupt by
loading pad characters into the transmit buffer and
clears the interrupt by issuing the Reset Exter-
nal/Status Interrupt command.
The pad character will follow the CRC characters in
this sequence, instead of the usual sync characters.
A Transmit Interrupt is generated when the pad
character is loaded into the transmit shift register.
Receive Characteristics. The receivermay bepro-
grammed to assemble five to eight data bits into a
character. The character is right-justified in the shift
register and transferred tothe receive data FIFO. All
data transfers to the FIFO are in 8-bit groups. When
the programmed character length is less than eight
bits, the most significant bit(s) transferred with a
characterwill betheleast significant bit(s)of the next
character. The programmed character length may
be changed on the fly during a message ; however,
care must be taken to assure that the change is ef-
fective before the number of bits specified for the
character length have been assembled.
From this point on, the CPU can send more pad
characters or sync characters.
The transparent mode of operation in Bisync Proto-
col is made possible with the SIO’sability to change
the Tx CRC Enable bit at any time during program
sequencing and with the additional capability of in-
serting 16-bit sync characters. Exclusion of DLE
(Data Link Escape) characters from CRC calcula-
tion can be achieved by disabling CRC calculations
immediately preceding the DLE character transfer
to the transmit buffer. In the case of a transmit un-
derrun condition in the transparent mode, a pair of
DLE-SYN characters is sent. The SIO can be pro-
grammed to send the DLE-SYNC sequence by loa-
When the Sync Character Load Inhibit bit in the Re-
ceiver Control Register is set, all characters in the
20/46
MK68564
receive data stream that match the byte loaded into
Sync Word Register 1 will be inhibited from loading
into the receive data FIFO. The comparison be-
tween Sync Word Register 1 and the incoming data
occursat a character boundary time. This is an 8-bit
comparison, regardless of thebitsper character pro-
grammed. CRCcalculations will be performed on all
bytes, even if the characters are not transferred to
the receive data FIFO, as long as the Rx CRC En-
able bit is set.
rity error status bits in Status Register 1 are latched
when they occur ; they will remain latched until an
Error Reset command is issued. As long as either
one of these bits is set, a Special Receive Condition
Interrupt will be generated at every character avai-
lable time. Since these two status bits are latched,
the error status in Status Register 1, when read, will
reflect an error inthecurrent wordinthereceivebuff-
er, in addition to any Parity or Overrun errors recei-
ved since the last Error Reset command.
Data Transfer and Status Monitiring. After char-
acter synchronization is achieved, the assembled
characters are transferred to the receive data FIFO,
and the status information for each character is
transferred to the receive error FIFO. The following
fourmodes are available to transferthe received da-
ta and its associated status to the CPU.
CRC Error Checking and Receiver Message Ter-
mination. A CRC error check on the received
message can be performed on a per character
basis under program control. The Rx CRC En-
able bit must set/reset by the program before
the next character is transferred from the receive
shift register to the receive data FIFO. This ensures
proper inclusion or exclusion of data characters in
the CRC check.
No ReceiveInterrupts Enabled. Thismode isused
eitherfor polling operations or foroff-line conditions.
When transferring data, using a polling routine, the
Rx Character Available bit in Status Register 0
should be checked to determine if a receive charac-
ter is available for transfer. Only when a character
is available should the receive buffer and Status Re-
gister 1 be read. The Rx Character Available bit is
set when a character is loaded to the top of the re-
ceive data FIFO. This bit is reset during aread of the
receive buffer.
There is an 8-bit delaybetween the timeacharacter
is transferred to the receive data FIFO and the time
the samecharacter startsto enter theCRCchecker.
Anadditional 8-bit times areneeded toperform CRC
calculations on the character. Due to this serial na-
ture of CRC calculations, the Receive Clock (RxC)
must cycle16 times after thesecond CRC character
has been loaded into the receive data FIFO or
20 times (the previous 16 plus 3-bit buffer delay
and 1-bit input delay) after the last bit is at the
RxD input, before CRC calculation is complete.
The CRC Framing Error bit in Status Register 1
will contain the comparison results of the CRC
checker. The comparison results should be zero,
indicating error-free transmission. The results in the
status bit are valid only at the end of CRC cal-
culation. If the result is examined before this time, it
usually indicates an error (the bit is High). The
comparison is made at each character available
time and is valid until the character is read from the
receive data FIFO.
Interrupt On First Character Only. This interrupt
mode is normally used to start a DMA transfer rou-
tine or, in some cases, a polling loop. The SIO will
generate an interrupt thefirsttimeacharacter is shif-
ted to the top of the receive data FIFO after this
mode is selected or reinitialized. An interrupt will be
generated thereafter only if a Special Receive
Condition is detected. This mode is reinitialized with
the Enable Interrupt On Next Receive Character
command. Parity Errors do not cause interrupts in
this mode ; however, a Receive Overrun Error will.
Interrupt On Every Character. Thisinterrupt mode
willgenerate aReceiver Interrupt every time a char-
acter is shifted to the top of the receive data FIFO.
A Special Receive Condition interrupt on aparity er-
ror is optional in this mode.
SDLC/HDLC OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
The MK68564 SIO iscapable of handling both High-
level Synchronous Data Link Control (HDLC) and
IBM Synchronous Data Link Control (SDLC) proto-
cols. In the following discussion, only SDLC is ref-
erenced because of the high degree of similarity
between SDLC and HDLC.
Special Receive Condition Interrupt. The special
condition interrupt modeis not an interrupt mode as
such, but works in conjunction with Interrupt On E-
very Character or Interrupt On First Character Only
modes. When the Status Affects Vector bit in either
channel is set, a Special Receive condition will mo-
dify the Receive Interrupt vector to signal the CPU
of the special condition. Receive Overrun Error and
ParityError are the onlySpecial Receive Conditions
in Synchronous receive mode. The overrun and pa-
The SDLC mode is considerably different from
Monosync and Bisync protocols, because it is bit o-
riented rather than character oriented. Bit orienta-
tionmakes SDLCa flexible protocolintermsof mes-

built-in features to handle variable message length.

flag character and must be programmed to
”01111110”.
The SIO provides four I/O lines in SDLC mode that
may be used for modem control, for external inter-
rupts, or as general purpose I/O. The Request To
Send (RTS) and Data Terminal Ready (DTR) pins
are outputs that follow the inverted state of their res-
pective bits in the Transmit Control Register. The
Data Carrier Detect (DCD) and Clear To Send
(CTS) pins are inputs that can be used as auto en-
ablesto the receiver and transmitter, respectively. If
External/Status Interrupts are enabled, the DCD
and CTS pins will be monitored for a change of sta-
tus. If these inputs change for a period of time grea-
ter than the minimum specified pulse width, an in-
terrupt will be generated.
The SDLCmessage, called the frame (figure 12), is
opened and closed by flags, which are similar to the
sync characters used in other Synchronous proto-
cols. The SIO handles the transmission and reco-
gnition ofthe flagcharacters that markthebeginning
and end of the frame. Note that the SIO can receive
shared-zero flags but cannot transmit them. The 8-
bit address field of a SDLC frame contains the se-
condary station address. The SIO receiver has an
Address Search mode, which recognizes the se-
condary station so that it can accept or reject a
frame.
In the following discussion, all interrupt modes are
assumed enabled.
The control field of the SDLC frame is transparent
to the SIO ; it is simply transferred to the CPU. The
SIO handles the Frame Check sequence in a man-
ner that simplifies the program by incorporating fea-
tures such as initializing the CRC generator to all
ones, resetting the CRC checker when the opening
flagisdetected inthereceive mode, and sending the
Frame Check/Flag sequence in the transmit mode.
Controller hardware is simplified by automatic zero
insertion and deletion logic, contained in the SIO.
SDLC TRANSMIT
Initialization. The SIO is initialized for SDLC mode
by selecting these parameters in the Mode Control
Register : x1 Clock Mode, SDLC Mode, and Sync
Modes Enabled. Parity isnormally not used inSDLC
mode, because the transmitter will not add parity to
the flag character or the CRC characters, thus cau-
sing Parity Errors in the receiver. If CRC is to be cal-
culated on the transmitted data, the SDLC-CRC
polynomial must be selected in the Interrupt Control
Register (CRC-16 polynomial in SDLC Mode will
produce unknown results).
To set up the SIO for SDLC operation, the following
registers need to be initialized : Mode Control Re-
gister, Interrupt Control Register, Receiver Control
Register, Transmitter Control Register, Sync Word
Register 1, and Sync Word Register 2. The Mode
Control Register must be programmed before the o-
ther registers to assure proper operation of the SIO.
The following registers are used to transfer data or
communicate status between the SIO and the CPU
or other bus master when operating in SDLC mode
: Command Register, Status Register 0, Status Re-
gister 1, Data Register, and the Vector Register.
After reset (hardware or software), or when the
transmitter is not enabled, the Transmit Data (TxD)
output pin is held High (marking). Under program
control, the Send Break bit in the Transmit Control
Register can be set to a one, forcing the TxD output
to a Lowlevel (spacing), even if thetransmitter isnot
enabled. The spacing condition will persist until the
SendBreak bit isreset to azero. Ifthetransmit buffer
is empty when the Transmit Enable bit is set to a
one, the transmitter will start sending flag charac-
ters.Continuous flagswill be transmitted ontheTxD

tion address, and Sync Word Register 2 stores the

mit buffer.
the number of bits per character does not affect the
character in the process of being shifted out. Flag
characters are always eigth bits in length, and CRC
is always 16 bits in length, regardless of the pro-
grammed bits per character. A transmitted frame
can be terminated by CRC and a flag, by a flag only,
or by an abort. This is controlled by the Tx Under-
run/EOM Latch and the Send Abort command.
Note : If a character is loaded into the transmit buf-
fer before enabling the transmitter, that character
will be sent in place of a flag.
An abort sequence may be transmitted at any time
by issuing the Send Abort command (command 1).
This causes at least eight, but less than fourteen,
ones to be sent before the output reverts back to
continuous flags. It is possible that the Abort se-
quence (eight 1’s) could follow up to fivecontinuous
ones (allowed by the zero insertion logic) and, thus,
cause as many as thirteen ones to besent. Any data
beingtransmitted andany data inthe transmit buffer
is lost when an abort is issued.
Data Transfers. A Transmit Interrupt is generated
each time the transmit buffer becomes empty. The
interrupt may be satisfied either by writing another
character into the transmit buffer or by resetting the
Transmit Interrupt Pending latch with aReset Tx In-
terrupt Pending command.Ifthe interrupt is satisfied
with this command, and nothing more is written into
the transmit buffer, there are no further transmitter
interrupts, and a Transmit Underrun condition will
occur when the data in the shift register is shifted
out. When another character is written to thebuffer
and loaded into the shift register, thetransmit buffer
can again become empty and interrupt the CPU.
Following the flags in an SDLC operation, the 8-bit
address field, control field,and information fieldmay
be sent to the SIO, using the Transmit Interrupt
mode.The SIOtransmits the frame checksequence
using the Transmit Underrun feature.
The zero insertion logic in the transmitter will auto-
matically insert a 0 after five continuous ones in the
data stream. This does not apply to flags or aborts.
Start of Transmission. Transmission will begin
withtheloading ofthefirstcharacter intothetransmit
buffer if the transmitter is already enabled. For CRC
to be calculated correctly on each frame, the CRC
generator must be initialized to all ones before the
firstcharacter is loaded. Thisis accomplished by is-
suing a Reset Tx CRC Generator command in the
Command Register. The first non-flag character
transmitted is the address field. The SIO does not
automatically transmit a station address, this is left
to the programmer. The SIO will only transmit flags
and CRC characters automatically.
When the transmitter is first enabled, the transmit
buffer is already empty and obviously cannot then
become empty. Therefore, no transmit interrupt can
occur until after the first data character is written to
the transmit buffer.
SDLC TransmitCharacteristics. Any length SDLC
frame can be transmitted. All characters are trans-
mitted with the least-significant bits first. All data is
shifted out of the Transmit Data pin (TxD) on thefal-
ling edge of the Transmit Clock (TxC). The transmit-
tertransmit from oneto eight data bitsper character.
This requires right-hand justification of data written
to the transmit buffer, if the word length selected is
less than eight bits per character. When the pro-
grammed character length is six or seven bits, the
unused bits in the transmit buffer are ignored. If a
word length of five bits per character or less is se-
lected, the data loaded into the transmit buffer must
be formatted as described in the Transmit Control
Register part of the Register Description section.
Another way of detecting when the transmitter re-
quires serviceistopoll theTx Buffer Empty bitinSta-
tus Register 0. This bit is set to a one every timethe
data in the transmit buffer is downloaded into the
transmit shift register. When data is written to the
transmit buffer, this bit is reset to zero.
The SIO has all the signals and controls necessary
to implement a DMA transfer routine for the trans-
mitter. The routine may be configured to enable the
DMAcontroller, after thefirstcharacter is written into
the transmit buffer, using the TxRDY output pin to
signalthe DMAthat the transmitter requires service.
TheDMAtransfercan beterminated, when the DMA
blockcount is reached, using the Tx Underrun/EOM
interrupt.
The number of bits per character to be transmitted
can be changed on the fly. Any data, written to the
transmit buffer after the bits per character field is
changed, are affected by the change. The same is
true of any characters in the buffer at the time the
bits per character field is changed. The change in
Transmit Underrun/End of Message. SDLC-like
protocols do not have provisions for fill characters
withina message.The SIO, therefore, automatically
terminates an SDLC frame when the transmit data
buffer is empty, and the output shift register has no
23/46
MK68564
more bits tosend. Itdoes thisby firstsending thetwo
bytes of CRC and the following these with one or
more flags. This technique allows very high-speed
transmissionunder DMAorCPU control, without re-
quiring the CPU to respond quickly to the end of
message situation.
flag insertion matches the CRC checker, giving a
false CRC check result.
CRC Generation. The CRC generator must be re-
set to all ones at the beginning of each frame before
CRC accumulation can begin. Actual accumulation
begins onthefirst data character (address field)loa-
ded into the transmit buffer. The Tx CRC Enable bit
in the Transmit Control Register should be set to a
one beforethefirst character isloaded intothetrans-
mit buffer. In SDLC mode, all characters between
the opening and the closing flags are included in
CRC accumulation. The output ofte CRCgenerator
is inverted before it is transmitted.
The action that the SIO takes in the underrun situa-
tion depends on the state of the Transmit Under-
run/EOM status bit in status Register 0. Following a
reset,the Transmit Underrun/EOM bit is set to aone
and preventsthe insertion ofCRC characters during
the timethere is no datato send. Consequently, flag
characters are sent. If the Transmit Underrun/EOM
status bit is zero when the underrun condition oc-
curs, the 16-bit CRC character is sent, followed by
one or more flag characters. The Transmit Under-
run/EOM bit is reset to zero by issuing the Reset Tx
Underrun/EOM Latch command in the Command
Register.
Transmit Termination. The normal sequence at
the end of a frame is
A Transmit Interrupt occurs when thelast data char-
acter written to the transmit buffer is downloaded in-
to the transmit shift register. This interrupt may be
cleared by issuing a Reset Tx Interrupt Pending
command.
The SIObegins tosend aframe when data iswritten
into the transmit buffer. Between the time the first
data byte is written and the end of the message, the
Reset Tx Underrun/EOM Latch command must be
issued. The Transmit Underrun/EOM status bit will
then be in the reset state at the end of the message
(when underrun occurs), and CRC characters will
automatically be sent. The transmission of the first
CRC bit set the Transmit Underrun/EOM status bit
to a one and generates an External/Status interrupt.
Also, while CRC is being sent, the Tx Buffer Empty
bit in Status Register 0 is reset to indicate that the
transmit shift register is full of CRCdata. When CRC
has been completely sent, the Tx Buffer Empty sta-
tus bit is set, and a Transmit Interrupt is generated
to indicate that another message maybegin. This in-
terrupt occurs because CRC has been sent, and a
flag has been loaded into the shift register. If no
more messages are to besent, the program canter-
minate transmission by disabling the transmitter.
An External/Status Interrupt occurswhenthe first bit
of the CRC character is transmitted. This interrupt
condition should first be tested to seeif the interrupt
was caused by the TxUnderrun/EOM bit going High
and thenreset by issuing aResetExternal/Status In-
terrupts command.
A Transmit Interrupt occurs when the first bit of the
flag is transmitted. This interrupt may be cleared by
issuing a Reset Tx Interrupt Pending command, by
loading the first character of the next message, or
by disabling the transmitter.
If the transmitter is disabled while a character is
being sent, that character (data or flag) is sentin the
normal fashion but is followed by a marking line ra-
ther than CRC ormore flagcharacters. If CRCchar-
acters are being sent at the time the transmitter is
disabled, all 16 bits will be transmitted, followed by
a marking line ; however, flags are sent in place of
CRC. A character in the buffer when the transmitter
is disabled remains in the buffer.
Although there isno restriction astowhen the Trans-
mit Underrun/EOM bit can be reset within a mes-
sage, it is usually reset after the first data character
(secondary address field) is sent to the SIO. By re-
setting the status bit early in the message, the CPU
has additional time (16 bits of CRC) to recognize if
an unintentional transmit underrun situation has oc-
cured and to respond with an Abort command. Is-
suingtheAbort command stops the flagsfromgoing
on theline prematurely and eliminates thepossibility
of the receiver accepting the frame as valid data.
Thissituation canhappen if, at thereceiving end, the
data pattern immediately preceding the automatic
SDLC RECEIVE
Initialization. The receiver is enabled only after all
of the receive parameters are initialized. After the
Receiver Enable bit inthe ReceiverControlRegister
is set to a one, the receiver will be in the Hunt phase
and will remain in this phase until the first flag is re-
ceived. While inthe SDLC mode,the receiver never
re-enters the Hunt phase, unless specifically in-
structed to do so by the program or when an Abort
character is detected in the incoming data stream.

MK68564
Receiver Characteristics. The receiver may be
programmed to assemble five to eight data bits into
a character. The character is right-justified in the
shift register and transferred to the receive data FI-
FO. All data transfers to the FIFOarein8-bit groups.
Whenthecharacter lengthprogrammed islessthan
eight bits, the most significant bit(s) transferred with
a character, will be the least-significant bit(s) of the
next character. The character length programmed
may be changed on the fly during the reception of a
frame ; however, care must be taken to assure that
the change is effective, before the number of bits
specified for the character length has been assem-
bled.
Rx Character Available bit in Status Register 0
shouldbechecked to determine whether or not are-
ceive character is available for transfer. Only when
a character is available should the receive buffer
and Status Register 1 be read. The Rx Character
Available bit is set to a one every time a character
is shifted to the top of the receive data FIFO. This
bit is reset when the receive buffer is read.
Interrupt On First Character Only. This interrupt
mode is normally used to start a DMA transfer rou-
tine, or in some cases, a polling loop. The SIO will
generate an interrupt thefirst timeacharacter isshif-
ted to the top of the receive data FIFO after this
mode is selected or reinitialized. An interrupt will be
generated thereafter only if a Special Receive
Condition is detected. Thismode is reinitialized with
the Enable Interrupt On Next Received Character
command. Parity Errors do not cause interrupts in
this mode, but a Receive Overrun Error or an End
Of Frame condition will.
The address field in the SDLC frame is defined as
an 8-bit field. When the Address Search Mode is se-
lected, the receiver will compare the 8-bit character
following the flag (first non-flag character) against
the address programmed in Sync Word Register 1
or the hardwired global address (11111111). When
the address field of the SDLC frame matches either
address, data transfer will begin with the address
character being loaded into the receive data FIFO.
If the frame address does not match either address,
the receiver will remain idle and continue checking
everyframe received for an address match. The ad-
dress comparison is always done on the first eight
bits following a flag, regardless of the bits per char-
acter programmed.
InterruptOn Every Character. This interrupt mode
will generate a Receiver Interrupt every time a char-
acter is shifted to the top of the receive data FIFO.
A Special Receive Condition interrupt on aParity er-
ror is optional in this mode.
Special Receive Condition Interrupt. The special
condition interrupt mode isnotan interrupt mode, as
such, but works in conjunction with Interrupt On E-
very Character or Interrupt On First Character Only
modes. When the Status Affects Vector bit in either
channel is set, aSpecial Receive Condition will mo-
dify the Receive Interrupt vector to signal the CPU
of the special condition. Receive Overrun Error, Pa-
rityError,andEnd OfFrame aretheSpecial Receive
Conditions in SDLC mode. The Overrun and Parity
error status bits in Status Register 1 are latched
when they occur ; the End Of Frame bit is not lat-
ched. The two bits that are latched will remain lat-
ched and will generate a Special Receive Condition
Interrupt at every character available time until an
Error Reset command is issued. Since the two sta-
tus bits are latched, the error status in Status Regis-
ter 1, when read, will reflect an error in the current
word in the receive buffer, in addition to any Parity
or Overrun errors received since thelastErrorReset
command.
The SIO receiver is capable of matching only one
address character. Once a match occurs, all data is
transferred to thereceive data FIFOat the program-
med bits per character rate. If SDLC extended ad-
dressfield recognition is used (two or more address
characters), the CPU program must be capable of
determining whether or not the frame has a correct
address field. If the correct address fieldis not recei-
ved, the Hunt bit can be set to suspend reception
and start searching for the next frame. The control
field of an SDLC frame is transparent to the SIO ; it
is transferred to the data FIFO as a data character.
All extra zeros, inserted in the data stream by the
transmitter, are automatically deleted in the recei-
ver.
Data Transfer and Status Monitoring. After re-
ceipt of a valid flag, the assembled characters are
transferred to the receive data FIFO, and the status
information for each character is transferred to the
receive error FIFO. The following four modes are
available to transfer the received data and its asso-
ciated status to the CPU.
SDLC Receive CRC Checking. Control of the re-
ceiver CRC checker is automatic. It is reset by the
leading flag, and CRC is calculated up to the final
flag. The byte that has the End Of Frame bit set is
the byte that contains the result of the CRC check.
If the CRC/Framing Error bit is not set (zero), the
CRC indicates a valid received message. A special
check sequence is used for the SDLC check, be-
No Receiver Interrupts Enabled. This mode is u-
sed for polling operations or for off-line conditions.
When transferring data, using a polling routine, the
25/46

cause the transmitted CRC character is inverted.
The final check must be 0001110100001111. he 2-
byte CRC check characters should be read and dis-
carded by the CPU, because the last two bits of the
2-byte SDLC CRC check characters are not trans-
ferred to the receive data FIFO due to the internal
timing associated with detecting the closing flag.
used in the programming of the SIO. This register is
reset to ”00H” by a channel or hardware reset. All
bits, except Loop Mode,will be read as zeros during
a read cycle.

SDLC Receive Termination. AnSDLC frameis ter-
minated when the closing flag is detected. The de-
tectionofthe flagsetsthe EndOf Frame bitin Status
Register 1 and generates a Special Receive Condi-
tion Interrupt. In addition to the End Of Frame bit
being set and the results of the CRC check, Status
Register 1 has three bits of Residue code valid at
this time. The Residue bits indicate the boundary
betweentheCRCcheck bits and theI-field bits inthe
frame. A detailed description of the Residue code
bits is given in the Register Description section, un-
der Status Register 1.
Null Code. The null code has no effect on the
MK68564 SIO. It is used when writing to the
Command Register for some reason other than a
CRC Reset.
Reset Receiver CRC Checker. It is necessary in
Synchronous modes (except SDLC) to reset the re-
ceiver CRC circuitry between received messages.
The CRC circuitry may be reset by one of the follo-
wing : disabling the receiver, setting the Enter Hunt
Mode bit in theReceiver Control Register, orissuing
this Reset command. The CRC circuitry is reset
automatically in SDLC mode when the End Of
Frame flagis detected. This Reset command will ini-
tialize the CRC checker circuit to all ones in SDLC
mode and all zeros in the other Synchronous
modes.
Any frame can be prematurely aborted by an Abort
sequence. Aborts are detected if seven or more
continuous ones occur in the received data stream.
This condition will cause an External/Status Inter-
rupt to be generated with the Break/Abort bit in Sta-
tus Register 0 set. After the Reset External/Status
Interrupts command has been issued, a second in-
terrupt will occur when the continuous ones condi-
tion has been cleared. This second interrupt can be
used to distinguish between the Abort and Idle line
conditions.
Reset Transmit CRC Generator. This command
resetsthe CRCgenerator to all ones in SDLC mode
and all zeros in the other Synchronous modes. This
command should be issued after the transmitter is
enabled but before the first character of a message
is loaded in the transmit buffer.
Reset Transmit Underrun/EOM Latch. This
command resets the Underrun/EOM latch in Status
Register 0 if the transmitter is enabled. The Under-
run/EOM latch controls the transmission of CRC at
the endof amessagein Synchronous modes. When
a transmit underrun occurs and this latch is low,
CRC will be appended to the end of the transmis-
sion.
REGISTER DESCRIPTION
The following sections describe the MK68564 SIO
registers. Each register is detailed in terms of bit
configuration, the active states of each bit, their de-
finitions, their functions, and their effects upon the
internal hardware and external pins.

Command CMD2 CMD1 CMD0
Command 5 (Reset Tx Interrupt Pending). When
the Transmit Interrupt Enable mode is selected, the
transmitter requests an interrupt when the transmit
buffer becomes empty. In those cases, where there
are no more characters to be sent (at the end of
message, for example), issuing this command re-
sets thepending transmitinterrupt and prevents any
further transmitter interrupt requests until the next
character has been loaded into the transmit buffer
or until CRC has been completely sent.

Command 7 (Null). The Null command has no ef-
fect on the MK68564 SIO.
Command 1 (Send Abort). This command is used
in SDLC mode to transmit a sequence of eight to
thirteen ones. This command always empties the
transmit buffer ans sets theTxUnderrun/EOM Latch
in Status Register 0 to a one
D2, D1 : Not Used (read as zeros)
D0 : Loop Mode
When this bit is set to a 1, the transmitter output is
connected to the receiver input and TxC is connec-
ted to the receiver clock. RxC and RxD pins are not
used by the receiver ; they are bypassed internally.
RxC may still be used as the baud rate generator
output in Loop Mode.
Command 2 (Reset External/Status Interrupts). Af-
ter an External/Status interrupt (a change on a mo-
dem line or a Break condition, for example), the up-
per five bits in Status Register 0 are latched. This
command reenables thesebitsand allowsinterrupts
to occur again as a result of a status change. Lat-
ching the status bits captures short pulses, until the
CPU has time to read the change. This command
should be issued prior to enabling External/Status
Interrupts.
MODE CONTROL REGISTER (MODECTL)
The Mode Control Register contains controlbits that
affect both the receiver and the transmitter. This re-
gistermustbeinitialized before loading theInterrupt,
Tx, and Rx Control Registers, and the Sync Word
Registers. This register is reset to ”00H” by a chan-
nel or hardware reset.
Command 3 (Channel Reset). This command di-
sables both the receiver and transmitter, forces TxD
to a marking state (”1”), forces the modem control
signals high, resets any pending interrupts from this
channel, and resets allcontrolregisters. See theRe-
set section in the SIO System Interface Description
for a more detailed list. All control registers for the
channel must be rewritten after a Channel Reset
command.

Command 4 (Enable Interrupt On Next Rx Charac-

Interrupt On First Character Only interrupt mode.
This command is normally issued after the present
message is completed but before the next message
has started to be assembled. The next character to
enter the receive data FIFO after this command is
issued will cause a receiver interrupt request.
These bits specify the multiplier between the input
shift clock rates (TxC x RxC) and data rate. The
same multiplier is used for both the transmitter and
receiver, although the input clock rates may be dif-
ferent. In x16, x32, and x64 clock modes, the recei-
ver start bit detection logic is enabled ; therefore, for
Synchronous modes, the x1 clock rate must be
specified. Any clock rate may be specified for Asyn-
chronous mode ; however, if the x1 clock rate is se-
lected, synchronization between the receive data
and the receive clock must be accomplished exter-
nally.
Note: Ifthe data FIFOhas more than one character
stored when this command is issued, the first pre-
viously stored character will cause the receiver in-
terrupt request.

D3, D2 : Stop Bits 1 and 0
The SDLC-CRC polynomial must be selected in
SDLC mode. Failure to do so will result in receiver
CRC errors. When a Synchronous mode, other than
SDLC, is selected, the CRC generator and checker
are preset to all zeros (for bothpolynomials). This bit
must be programmed before CRC is enabled in the
receiver and transmitter control registers, to assure
valid CRC generation and checking. This bit is igno-
red in Asynchronous modes.
These bits determine the number of stop bits added
to each Asynchronous character that is transmitted.
The receiver always checks forone stop bit in Asyn-
chronous mode. A special code (00) signifies that a
Synchronous mode isto be selected. 1 1/2 stop bits
is not allowed if x1 clock rate is selected, because it
will lock up the transmitter.

D4, D3 : Receive Interrupt Modes 1 and 0
Interrupt On All Receive Characters. This mode
ammows an interrupt for every character received
(or character in the receive data FIFO)and provides
a unique vector (if Status Affects ector is enabled)
when a Special Receive Condition exists. When the
interrupt request is due to a special condition, the
data containing that condition, the data containing
data FIFO.
Together, these two bitsspecify the various charac-
ter-avalaible conditions that will cause interrupt re-
quests. When receiver interrupts are enabled, a
Special Receive Condition can cause an interrupt
request and modify the interrupt vector. Special Re-
ceive conditions are:Rx Overrun Error, Framing Er-
ror (inasync mode), End OfFrame (in SDLC mode),
and Parity Error (when selected). The Rx Overrun
Error and the Parity Error conditions are latched in
Status Register 1when theyoccur ; they arecleared
by an Error Reset command (Command 4) or by a
hardware or channel rest.
D2 : Status Affects Vector
Whenthis bit is zero, the value programmed into the
Vector Register is returned during aread cycleor an
interrupt acknowledge cycle. If the Vector Register
has not been programmed following a hardware re-
set, then ”0FH” is returned.

or on a Special Receive Condition. If a Special Re-
ceive Condition occurs, the data with the special
condition is held inthereceive data FIFO untilan Er-
ror Reset command (Command 6) is issued.
D1 : Transmit Interrupt Enable
When this bit is set to a one, the transmitter will re-
quest an interrupt whenever the transmit buffer be-
comes empty. When this bit is zero, no transmitter
interrupts will be requested.
The receive Interrupt OnFirst Character Only mode
can be re-enabled by the Enable Interrupt On Next
Rx Character command (Command 4). If this inter-
rupt mode was terminated by a Special Receive
Condition, the Error Reset command must be is-
sued,before Command4, for proper operation to re-
sume.
D0 : External/Status Interrupt Enable
When this bit is set to a one, an interrupt will be re-
questedbytheexternal/status logiconanyof thefol-
lowingoccurrences :a transition (high-to-low orlow-
to-high) on the DCD, CTS, or SYNC input pins, a

when the Transmit Underrun/EOM latch in Status
Register 0becomes set.When thisbitiszero, noEx-
ternal/Status interrupts will occur.
D7, D6 : Receiver Bits/Character 1 and 0
The state of these two bits determines the number
of bits to be assembled as a character in the recei-
ved serialdata stream. IfParity is enabled, one ad-
ditionalbit willbeadded to each character. The num-
ber of bits per character can be changed while a
character is being assembled but only before the
number of bits currently programmed isreached. All
data is right-justified in the shift register and trans-
ferred to the receive data FIFO in 8-bit groups.
If this bit is set when an External/Status condition is
pending, an interrupt will be requested. It is re-
commended that a ResetExternal/Status Interrupts
command (Command 2 in the Command Register)
be issued prior to enabling External/Status inter-
rupts.
In Asynchronous mode, transfers are made at char-
acter boundaries, and all unused bits of character
are set to a one. In Synchronous modes and SDLC
mode, an 8-bit segment of the serial data stream is
transferred to the data FIFOwhenthe internal coun-
ter reaches the number of bits per character pro-
grammed. For less than eight bits per character, no
parity, the MSB bit(s) of the first transfer will be the
LSB bit(s) of the next transfer.
SYNC WORD REGISTER 1 (SYNC 1)
This register is programmed to contain the transmit
synccharacter inthe Monosync mode, thefirst eight
bits of the 16-bit sync character in the Bysinc mode,
or the transmit sync character in the External Sync
mode. This register is not used in Asynchronous
mode. In the SDLC mode, this register is program-
med to contain the secondary address field used to
compare against the address field of the SDLC
frame. The SIO does not automatically transmit the
station address at the beginning of a response
frame. This register is reset to ”00H” by a channel
or hardware reset.

When this bit is set to a one, and the Receiver Ena-
ble bit is also set, a Low on the DCD input pin be-
comes the enable for the receiver. When this bit is
zero, the DCD pin is simply an input to the SIO, and
its status is displayed in Status Register 0.
SYNC WORD REGISTER 2 (SYNC 2)
This register is programmed to contain the receive
sync character inthe Monosync mode, the last eight
bits of the 16-bit sync character in the Bisync mode,
or a flag character (01111110) in the SDLC mode.
This register is not used in the External Sync mode
and the Asynchronous mode. This register is reset
to ”00H” by a channel or hardware reset.
D4 : Enter Hunt Mode
This bit, when written to a one, rearms the receiver
synchronization logic and forces the comparison of
the received bit stream to the ontents of Sync Word
Register 1and/or Sync Word Register 2, depending
upon which Synchronous mode is selected, until bit
synchronization is achieved. The SIO automatically
enters the Hunt mode after a channel or hardware
reset, after an Abort condition is detected, or when
the receiver is disabled. When the Hunt mode is en-
tered, the Hunt/Sync bit in Status Register 0 is set
to a one. When synchronization is achieved, the
Hunt/Sync bit is reset toa zero. IfExternal/Status in-
terrupts are enabled, an interrupt request will be ge-
nerated on both transitions of the Hunt/Sync bit. En-
ter Hunt Mode has no affect in Asynchronous
modes. Thisbitisnotlatchedand will always beread
as a zero.

data FIFO, and no receiver interrupt will be genera-

This bit, when set to a one in a Synchronous mode
other than SDLC, is used to initiate CRC calculation
at thebeginning of the last byte transferred from the
receiver shift register to the receive data FIFO. This
operation occurs independently of the number of
bytes in the receive data FIFO. As long as this bit is
set, CRC will be calculated on all characters recei-
ved (data or sync). When a particular byte is to be
excluded from CRCcalculation, thisbitshould be re-
set to a zero before the next byte is transferred to
the receive data FIFO. If this feature is used, care-
must be taken to ensure that eight bits percharacter
are selected in the reciever because of an inherent
eight-bit delay from the receiver shift register to the
CRC checker.
D0 : Receiver Enable
When this bit is set to a one, receiver operation be-
gins if Rx Auto Enables mode is not selected. This
bit should be set only after all receiver parameters
are established, and the receiver is completely ini-
tialized. When thisbit iszero, thereceiver isdisabled
; the receiver CRC checker isreset, and thereceiver
is in the Hunt mode.
TRANSMITTER CONTROL REGISTER
(XMTCTL)
This register contains the control bits and parame-
ters for the transmitter logic. This register is reset to
”00H” by a channel or hardware reset.
When this bit is set to a one in SDLC mode, the SIO
will calculate CRC on all bits between the opening
and closing flags. Thereisnodelay fromthereceiver
shift register to the CRC checker in SDLC mode.
This bit is ignored in Asynchronous modes.

D2 : Address Search Mode
D7, D6 Transmit Bits/Character 1 and 0
Setting this bit to a one in SDLC mode forces the
comparison of the first non-flag character of aframe
with the address programmed in Sync Word Regis-
ter 1 or the global address (11111111). If a match
does not occur, the frame is ignored, and the recei-
ver remains idle until the next frame is detected. No
receiver interrupts can occur in this mode, unless
there is an address match. This bit is ignored in all
modes except SDLC.
The state of these two bits determine the number of
bits in each byte transferred fromthe transmit buffer
to the transmit shift register. All data written to the
transmit buffer must be right-justified with the least-
significant bits first. The Five Or Less mode allows
transmission of one to five bits per character ; how-
ever, the CPU should format the data characters as
shown. If Parity is enabled, one additional bit per
character will be transmitted.

(no parity)
When this bit is set to a one in any Synchronous
mode except SDLC, the SIO compares the byte in
Sync Word Register 1 with the byteabout to be loa-
ded into the receiver data FIFO. If the two bytes are
equal, the load is inhibited, and noreceiver interrupt
willbe generated by this character. CRC calculation
is performed on all bytes, whether they are loaded
into the data FIFO or not, when the receiver CRC is
enabled. Note that the register used in the compa-
rison contains the transmit sync character in Mono-
sync and External sync modes. Thisbit is ignored in
SDLC mode because all flag characters are auto-
matically striped in this mode without performing
CRC calculations on them.

modes, thisbit hastobeset whenthe transmitbuffer

being transmitted are completely sent if this bit is re-
set to zero after transmission has started. If this bit
is reset during the transmission of a CRC character,
sync or flag characters are sent instead of the CRC
character.
When this bit is set to a one, and the Transmit Ena-
ble bitis alsoset, a Low on the CTSinput pinwill en-
able the transmitter. When this bit is zero, the CTS
pin is simply an input to the SIO,and itsstatus is dis-
played in Status Register 0.
D4 : Send Break
When set to a one, this bit immediately forces the
Transmit Data output pin (TxD) to a spacing condi-
tion (continuous 0’s), regardless of any data being
transmitted at the time. This bit functions, whether
the transmitter is enabled or not. When this bit is re-
set to zero, the transmitter will continue to send the
contents of the transmit shift register. The shift re-
gistermaycontainsynccharacters, data characters,
or all ones.

This bit determines if CRC calculations are perfor-

one at the time a character is loaded from the trans-
mit buffer to the transmit shift register, CRC is cal-
culated on the character. CRC is not calculated on
any automatically inserted sync characters. CRC is
notautomatically appended totheendof amessage
unless this bit is set, and the Transmit Under-
run/EOM status bitinStatus Register 0isreset when
a Transmit Underrun condition occurs. If this bit is a
zero when a character is loaded from the transmit
buffer into the transmit shift register, no CRC calcu-
lations are performed on the character. This bit is i-
gnored in Asynchronous modes.
This bit is reset by a channel or hardware reset. In
Asynchronous modes, this bit is set when a Break
sequence (null character plus framing error) is de-
tectedin thereceived datastream. An External/Sta-
tus interrupt, if enabled, is generated when Break is
detected. The interrupt service routine must issue a
Reset
External/Status
Interrupt
command
(Command 2) to the SIO, so the break detection lo-
gic can recognize the termination of the Break se-
quence.
The Break/Abort bit is reset to a zero when the ter-
mination of the Break sequence isdetected inthe in-
coming data stream. The termination of the Break
sequence also causes the generation of an Exter-
nal/Status interrupt. Command 2 must be issued to
enable the break detection logic to look for the next
Breaksequence. Asingle extraneous null character
is present in the receiver after the termination of a
break ; it should be read and discarded.
D2 : Data Terminal Ready (DTR)
This is the control bit for the DTR output pin. When
this bit is set to a one, the DTR pin goes Low: when
this bit is reset to a zero, the DTR pin goes High.
D1 : Request To Send (RTS)
In SDLC mode, this bit is set by the detection of an
Abort sequence (seven or more ones) in the recei-
ved data stream. The External/Status Interrupt is
handled the same way as in the case of a Break se-
quence. The Break/Abort bit is not used in the other
Synchronous modes.
This is the controlbit for the RTS output pin. In Syn-
chronous modes, when this bit is set to a one, the
RTS pin goes Low ; when this bit is reset to a zero,
the RTS pin goes High. In Asynchronous modes,
when this bit is set, the RTS pin goes Low ; when
this bit is reset, the RTS pin will go High only after
all the bits of the character are transmitted, and the
transmit buffer is empty.
D6 : Transit Underrun/EOM
This bit is set to aone following a hardware or chan-
nel reset, when the transmitter is disabled or when
a Send Abort command (Command 1) is issued.
This bit canonly be reset by the Reset Transmit Un-
derrun/EOM Latch command in the Command Re-
gister. This bit is used to control the transmission of

causes the DCD bit to be latched and generates an
External/Status interrupt request, if ena-bled. To
read the current state of the DCD pin, this bit must
be read immediately following aReset External/Sta-
tus Interrupts command (command 2).
D2 : Transmit Buffer Empty
This bit is set to a one, when the transmit buffer be-
comes empty, and when the last CRC bit is trans-
mitted in Synchronous or SDLC modes. This bit is
reset when the transmit buffer is loaded or while the
CRC character is being sent in Synchronous or
SDLC modes. This bit is set to a one following a
hardware or channel reset.
D5 : Clear To Send (CTS)
This bit indicates the inverted state of the CTSinput
pin at the time of the last change of any of the five
External/Status bits. Any transition of the CTS input
causes the CTS bit to be latched and generates an
External/Status interrupt request, if enabled. To
read the current state of the CTS pin, this bit must
be read immediately following aReset External/Sta-
tus Interrupts command (command 2).
D1 : Interrupt Pending
Any interrupt condition, pending in the interrupt
control logic for this channel, will set this bit toa one.
This bit isresetto zero by a hardware channel reset,
or when all the interrupt conditions are cleared.
D4 : Hunt/Sync
In Asynchronous modes, this bit indicates the inver-
ted state of the SYNC input pin at the timeof the last
change of any of the five External/Status bits. Any
transition of the SYNC input causes the Hunt/Sync
bit to be latched and generates an External/Status
interrupt request, if enabled. To read the current
state of the SYNC pin, this bit must be read imme-
diately following a Reset External/Status Interrupt
command (command 2).
D0 : Receive Character Available
This bit is set to a one when a character becomes
available in the receive data FIFO. This bit is reset
to zero when the receive data FIFO (receive buffer)
is read, or by a hardware or channel reset.
STATUS REGISTER 1 (STAT 1)
READ ONLY
In External sync mode, the SYNC pin is used by ex-
ternal logic to signal character synchronization is a-
chieved, the SYNC pin is driven Low on the second
rising edge of the Receive Clock (RxC) on which the
last bit of the sync character wasreceived. Once the
SYNCpin is Low, it should be heldLow until the end
of the message and the driven back High. Both
transitions on the SYNC pin cause External/Status
interrupt requests, if enabled. The inverted state of
the SYNC pin is indicated by this bit.

D7 : End Of Frame (SDLC)
This bit is used only in SDLC mode. When set to a
one, this bit indicates that a valid closing flag has
been received and that the CRC/Framing Error bit
and Residue codes are valid. If receiver interrupts
are enabled, a Special Receive Condition interrupt
will also be generated. This bit can be reset by is-
suing an Error Reset command (command 6). This
bit is also updated by the first character of the follo-

In Synchronous and SDLC modes, this bit indicates
the result of comparing the received CRC value to
the appropriate check value. A zero indicates that a
match has occurred. This bit is usually set since
most bit combinations result in anon-zero CRC, ex-
cept for a correctly completed message. Receiver
interrupts are not requested by the CRC Error bit.
I-Fiel Bits are Right-justified in all Cases.
The CRC/Framing bit is not latched in any receiver
mode. It is always updated when the next character
is received. An Error Reset command (command 6)
will always reset this bit to zero.

D5 : Receive Overrun Error
This bit indicates that the receive data FIFO has o-
verflowed. Only the character that has been written
over is flagged with this error. When the character
is read, the error condition is latched until reset by
the Error Reset command (command 6). If receiver
interrupts are enabled, the overrun character and all
subsequent characters received, until the Error Re-
set command is issued, will generate a Special Re-
ceive Condition interrupt request.

D4 : Parity Error
D0 : All Sent
When parity is enabled, this bit is set to a one for
those characters whose parity does not match the
programmed sense (even/odd). This bit is latched
so that once an error occurs, it remains set until the
ErrorReset command (command 6) is issued. If pa-
rity is a Special Receive Condition, a Parity isa Spe-
cial Receive Condition, a Parity Error will cause a
Special Receive Condition interrupt request on the
character containing theerror and onall subsequent
characters until the Error Resetcommand isissued.

Notes : 1. This specification only applies if the SIO has completed all operations initiated by the previous bus cycle, when CS
or IACK was asserted. Following a read, write, or interrupt acknoledge cycle, all operations are complete within two
CLK cycles after the rising edge of CS or IACK. If CS or IACK is asserted prior to the completion of the internal
operations, the new bus cycle will be postponed.
2. If IEI meets the setup time to the falling edge of CLK, 1 1/2 cycles following the clocking in of IACK.
3. No internal interrupt request pending at the start of an interrupt acknoledge cycle.
4. Time starts when first signal goes invalid (high).
5. If an internal interrupt is pending at the end of the interrupt acknoledge cycle.
6. If Note 2 timing is not met.
7. If this spec is met, the delay listed in Note 1 will be one CLK cycle instead of two.
8. Ready signals will be negated asynchronous to the CLK, if the condition causing the assertion of the signals is
cleared.
9. If RxC and TxC are asynchronous to the System Clock, the maximum clock rate into RxC and TxC should be no
more than one-fifth the System Clock rate. If RxC and TxC are synchronized to the falling edge of the System
Clock, the maximum clock rate into RxC and TxC can be one-fourth the System Clock rate.
