SC16C85x enhanced UARTs

Introduction
NXP's SC16C85x series of UARTs have enhanced features ideal for low-power applications requiring high-speed and high-data throughput. All feature 128 byte-deep FIFOs, 5Mbps baud rates, and IrDA encoders/decoders. These products can operate as low as 1.8 volts, have Intel/Motorola or VLIO interfaces, and can support concurrent write (dual UARTS). Additionally, a high-resolution clock prescaler allows a non-standard UART clock to be used. The SC16C85x series features a UART software reset saving a hardware resource pin.
Features
  • Low-volt operation as low as 1.8V
  • Power-saving enhanced sleep mode
  • High-speed baud rate up to 5Mbps
  • 128 byte-deep FIFOs reducing CPU overhead
  • Intel, Motorola, or XScale® VLIO interfaces available
