DESCRIPTION
From the Serial Data Stream
The TL16C2550 is a dual universal asynchronous
5-V, 3.3-V, 2.5-V, and 1.8-V Operation
receiver and transmitter (UART). It incorporates the
Independent Receiver Clock Input
functionality of two TL16C550D UARTs, each UART
Transmit, Receive, Line Status, and Data Set
having its own register set and FIFOs. The two
Interrupts Independently Controlled
UARTs share only the data bus interface and clock
source, otherwise they operate independently.
Fully Programmable Serial Interface
Another name for the uart function is Asynchronous
