Serial port performance

The serial ports have a finite performance limit on their ability to handle various serial protocols. Performance is limited by the speed of the SYSCLK operating the NS7520. The configured speed for the internal PLL defines the SYSCLK rate, as shown in this table:

Operating Mode	Serial Port Maximum Rate

UART (x16)	SYSCLK/64

UART (x1)	SYSCLK/4

SPI	SYSCLK/8

Configuration

The serial controller module has a block of configuration space as shown:

Address	Register

FFD0 0000	Channel 1 Control Register A

FFD0 0004	Channel 1 Control Register B

FFD0 0008	Channel 1 Status Register A

FFD0 000C	Channel 1 Bit-Rate register

FFD0 0010	Channel 1 FIFO Data register

FFD0 0014	Channel 1 Receive Buffer Gap Timer

FFD0 0018	Channel 1 Receive Character Gap Timer

FFD0 001C	Channel 1 Receive Match register

FFD0 0020	Channel 1 Receive Match Mask register

FFD0 0040	Channel 2	Control Register A

FFD0 0044	Channel 2	Control Register B

FFD0 0048	Channel 2	Status Register A
