5. Serial Interface Section
Serial communication has been performed to Host CPU when DSP mode or Serial Mode has
been selected.
On DSP mode, 4 signal lines ( SRXD, STXD, SCTS and SRTS ) assigned for serial communication
pins can be used to perform standard serial communication. Normally 9 signal lines is assigned
for modem control, but proper FAX/DATA modem operation can be performed by using these 4
signal lines.
On Serial mode, in addition to above 4 signal lines, other signal lines ( CI, DTR DRS, and DCD )
assigned for common communication pins can be used to perform EIA-232-E asynchronous
communication.
*More details explanations for Serial Mode, please refer “6.2 Serial Interface Mode”.
Main features for this “Serial Interface” are :
a) Support automatic configuration such as Automatic Speed Recognition, Automatic
Format Recognition.
b) Support 2400bps ~ 460.8Kbps. ( 2400, 4800, 7200, 9600, 14.4K, 19.2K, 38.4K, 57.6K,
76.8K, 115.2K, 230.4K, 460.8K )
c) Implement 32K bytes FIFO for Transmitting/Receiving Data, so that automatic flow
operation can be performed by FIFO condition.
d) Support EIA-232-E driver/receiver, so that PC’s serial port can be connected.
The Serial communication of DSP Mode is shown following paragraphs
5.1 Type 3 Serial Operation
“Type3 Serial Operation” is performed Serial communication with DSP mode.
To use this “Type3 Serial Operation”, set the mode selection pins to “DSP mode” and
perform the “Type3 Serial Boot Command” from Host CPU, so that serial communication
is performed even in DSP mode.
“Type3 Serial Operation” can be performed to switch “Type 3 command controlled FAX
modem” and “AT command controlled DATA modem” without changing the hardware
design.
