SC16C852VIET,115

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Overview

The SC16C852VIET,115 is a dual-channel Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) operating at 1.8 V with a maximum data rate of 5 Mbit/s. It features 128-byte transmit and receive FIFOs to reduce CPU bandwidth requirements. The device supports IrDA encoding/decoding, hardware/software flow control, and an Intel XScale VLIO bus interface. It is housed in a TFBGA36 package and operates within an industrial temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Feature Summary

• Dual channel high performance UART
• 128-byte transmit and receive FIFOs
• Support for IrDA version 1.0
• Automatic RS-485 driver turn-around

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Applications

• Serial data communications
• High speed modem connections
• Shared network environments

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Procurement Notes

Verify the component status as obsolete or discontinued through official NXP channels. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required package type and environmental compliance standards before finalizing any acquisition plans.

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-power 1.8 V dual UART with large FIFO buffers is required. Ensure the host system supports the Intel XScale VLIO interface or standard parallel bus modes. Verify that the TFBGA36 package footprint aligns with the PCB design constraints.

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Part Context

This part belongs to the SC16C852V family, which serves as an enhanced successor to the SC16C652B. It provides upward compatibility while offering increased FIFO capacity and support for higher data rates. The VIET suffix specifically denotes the TFBGA36 plastic thin fine-pitch ball grid array package.

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Replacement Considerations

Check for functional equivalents from other manufacturers that support 1.8 V operation and similar FIFO sizes. Verify pinout compatibility if replacing directly on existing boards.
