LPC11U6x
32-bit ARM Cortex-M0+ microcontroller
• Received data and status can optionally be read from a single register
• Break generation and detection.
• Receive data is 2 of 3 sample "voting". Status flag set when one sample differs.
• Built-in Baud Rate Generator with auto-baud function.
• A fractional rate divider is shared among all USARTs.
• Interrupts available for Receiver Ready, Transmitter Ready, Receiver Idle, change in
receiver break detect, Framing error, Parity error, Overrun, Underrun, Delta CTS
detect, and receiver sample noise detected.
• Loopback mode for testing of data and flow control.
• In synchronous slave mode, wakes up the part from deep-sleep and power-down
modes.
• Special operating mode allows operation at up to 9600 baud using the 32 kHz RTC
oscillator as the UART clock. This mode can be used while the device is in
Deep-sleep or Power-down mode and can wake up the device when a character is
received.
• USART transmit and receive functions work with the system DMA controller.
8.17 SSP serial I/O controller (SSP0/1)
The SSP controllers operate on a SSP, 4-wire SSI, or Microwire bus. The controller can
interact with multiple masters and slaves on the bus. Only a single master and a single
slave can communicate on the bus during a given data transfer. The SSP supports full
duplex transfers, with frames of 4 bit to 16 bit of data flowing from the master to the slave
and from the slave to the master. In practice, often only one direction carries meaningful
data.
8.17.1 Features
• Maximum SSP speed of 25 Mbit/s (master) or 4.17 Mbit/s (slave) (in SSP mode)
• Compatible with Motorola SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface), 4-wire Texas Instruments
SSI (Serial Synchronous Interface), and National Semiconductor Microwire buses
• Synchronous serial communication
• Master or slave operation
• 8-frame FIFOs for both transmit and receive
• 4-bit to 16-bit frame
• DMA support

C-bus serial I/O controller
The LPC11U6x contain two I
2
C-bus controllers.
The I
2
C-bus is bidirectional for inter-IC control using only two wires: a Serial Clock line
(SCL) and a Serial Data line (SDA). Each device is recognized by a unique address and
can operate as either a receiver-only device (e.g., an LCD driver) or a transmitter with the
capability to both receive and send information (such as memory). Transmitters and/or
receivers can operate in either master or slave mode, depending on whether the chip has
to initiate a data transfer or is only addressed. The I
2
C is a multi-master bus and can be
controlled by more than one bus master connected to it.
