DESCRIPTION
•
•
•
Independent bit rate selection for each
receiver and transmitter
The Epic Ei68C684/Ei88C684 Quad Universal
Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter (QUART) is a
data communication device that provides four fully
independent full duplex asynchronous communication
channels in a single package. The QUART is designed
for use in microprocessor based systems and may be
used in a polled or interrupt driven environment.
Maximum bit rate: 1 x clock - 2 Mb/sec., 16
x clock- 250 Kb/sec.
Normal, auto-echo, local loop-back and
remote loop-back modes
•
•
•
Multi-function 16-bit counter/timer
Programmable interrupt daisy chain
Two basic versions of the QUART are pin selectable
with SEL pin and each is optimized for use with various
microprocessor families: the Ei88C684 for 8080/5,
8086/88, Z80, Z8000, 68XX and 65XX family based
systems., and the 68C681 for 68000 family based sys-
tems.and the Ei68C684 for 68000family based systems
A programmable mode of the Ei88C684 versions pro-
vides an interrupt daisy chain for use in Z80 and Z8000
based systems. The bus interfaces are however gener-
al enough to allow interfacing with other microprocessors
and microcontrollers. The Ei88C684 and Ei68C684 are
high integrated versions of Epic Semiconductor’s
Ei88C681 and Ei66C681 DUART’s respectively, and are
function compatible with those devices.
Up to 32 I/O pins (depending on package
and version)
•
•
Change of state detectors on inputs
Multidrop mode compatible with 8051 nine-
bit mode
•
•
•
•
Stop bits programmable in 1/16-bit increments
Pin selectable 88xxx/68xxx interface
Debounced reset pin (20 nsec. min)
