TL16C752DPFBR

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Overview

The TL16C752DPFBR is a dual universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter (UART) integrated circuit manufactured by Texas Instruments. It features two independent UART channels, each equipped with a 64-byte first-in-first-out (FIFO) buffer to enhance data throughput and reduce processor overhead. The device supports baud rates up to 3 Mbps when operating at 3.3V supply voltage. It includes programmable interrupt generation based on FIFO trigger levels, allowing for efficient data handling in high-speed serial communication applications.

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Feature Summary

• Dual independent UART channels with dedicated 64-byte FIFO buffers per channel
• Supports standard and fractional baud rate generators for flexible clocking options
• Programmable interrupt logic triggers based on receive or transmit FIFO occupancy levels

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring multiple serial communication ports
• Embedded computing platforms needing high-throughput serial data interfaces
• Telecommunications equipment utilizing RS-232 or RS-485 transceivers

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix DPFB against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with system voltage requirements and check for moisture sensitivity level constraints during storage and soldering processes before integration.

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-channel serial communication with hardware flow control and FIFO buffering is required. Compare against single-channel alternatives if only one port is needed, or consider quad-channel variants like the TL16C754 for higher density. Verify pinout compatibility with existing PCB layouts designed for legacy 16550-compatible footprints.

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Part Context

This part belongs to the TL16C75x family of UART interface ICs from Texas Instruments. It serves as a modern replacement for older 16550-based designs, offering superior performance through integrated FIFOs and support for higher baud rates while maintaining backward compatibility with standard UART register sets and control signals.

UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements include the TL16C752D and TL16C752CIPF. Cross-voltage variants such as the 5V-tolerant TL16C752 may be considered if system power rails differ. Always verify electrical characteristics and timing parameters against the original design specifications.
