17.6 Hardware UART Register Summary

Table17-20 contains the register addresses for the HWUART.

2R/WXMODE
TRANSMIT PULSE WIDTH SELECT:
When XMODE is cleared, the UART 16X clock is used to clock the IrDA
transmit and receive logic. When XMODE is set, receive decoder operation
does not change and the transmit encoder generates 1.6µs pulses (that
are 3/16 of a bit time at 115.2Kbps) instead of pulses 3/16 of a bit time
wide.
0 – Transmit pulse width is 3/16 of a bit time wide
1 – Transmit pulse width is 1.6µs
1 R/W RCVEIR
RECEIVER SIR ENABLE:
When RCVEIR is set, the signal from the RXD pin is processed by the IrDA
decoder before it is fed to the UART. If RCVEIR is cleared, then all clocking
to the IrDA decoder is blocked and the RXD pin is fed directly to the UART.
0 – Receiver is in UART mode
1 – Receiver is in infrared mode
0 R/W XMITIR
TRANSMITTER SIR ENABLE:
When XMITIR is set to a 1, the normal TXD output from the UART is
processed by the IrDA encoder before it is fed to the device pin. If XMITIR is
cleared, all clocking to the IrDA encoder is blocked and the UART’s TXD
signal is connected directly to the device pin.
When transmitter SIR enable is set, the TXD output pin, which is in a
normally high default state, will switch to a normally low default state. This
can cause a false start bit unless the infrared LED is disabled before
XMITIR is set.
0 – Transmitter is in UART mode
1 – Transmitter is in infrared mode
