COM2601 - SMSC

COM2601 Universal Synchronous Receiver/Transmitter

The Universal Synchronous Receiver/Transmitter is an MOS/LSI monolithic circuit that performs all the receiving and transmitting functions associated with synchronous (STR, SSC, Bi-sync, and interleaved bi-sync) data communications. This circuit is fabricated using SMC's P-channel low voltage oxide-nitride technology, allowing all inputs and outputs to be di.

Features

o STR, BSC- Bi-sync and interleaved bi-sync modes of operation o Fully Programmable-data word length, parity mode, receiver sync character, transmitter sync character o Full or Half Duplex Operation-can receive and transmit simultaneously at different baud rates o Fully Double Buffered-eliminates need for precise external timing o Directly TTL Compatible- no interface components required o Tri-State Data Outputs- bus structure oriented o IBM Compatible-internally generated SCR and SCT signals o High Speed Operation-250K baud, 200ns strobes o Low Power-300mW o Input Protected-eliminates handlin.
