IN16C1054
6.7 Programmable Baud Rate Generator
The SB16C1054 has a programmable baud rate generator with a prescaler. The
prescaler is controlled by MCR[7], as shown in Figure 7. The MCR[7] sets the prescaler to
divide the clock frequency by 1 or 4. And the baud rate generator further divides this clock
frequency by a programmable divisor (DLL and DLM) between 1 and (216 – 1) to obtain a
16X sampling rate clock of the serial data rate. The sampling rate clock is used by
transmitter for data bit shifting and receiver for data sampling.
The divisor of the baud rate generator is:

MCR[7] is cleared to ‘0’ (prescaler = 1), when CLKSEL input is in low state after reset.
MCR[7] is set to ‘1’ (prescaler = 4), when CLKSEL input is in high state after reset.

DLL and DLM must be written to in order to program the baud rate. DLL and DLM are the
least and most significant byte of the baud rate divisor, respectively. If DLL and DLM are
both zero, the SB16C1054 is effectively disabled, as no baud clock will be generated.
Table 5 shows the baud rate and divisor value for prescaler with divide by 1 as well as
crystal with frequency 1.8432MHz, 3.6864MHz, 7.3728MHz, and 14.7456MHz,
respectively.
Figure 8 shows the crystal clock circuit reference.
