TL16CP754CIPMR

Overview

The TL16CP754CIPMR is a quad universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART) manufactured by Texas Instruments. It integrates four independent UART channels, each equipped with a 64-byte FIFO buffer to enhance data throughput and reduce processor intervention. The device supports asynchronous serial communication protocols and includes auto-flow control capabilities. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V and features low-power modes for energy efficiency. The component is housed in an 80-pin LQFP package with dimensions of 12x12 mm, suitable for surface-mount applications.

Feature Summary

• Integrates four independent UART channels with 64-byte FIFOs per channel
• Supports auto-flow control and modem control signals
• Features low-power operating modes for energy conservation
• Compatible with 3.3V and 5V supply voltages

Applications

• Industrial communication systems requiring multiple serial ports
• Embedded controllers needing high-speed serial data transfer
• Telecommunications equipment utilizing asynchronous interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CIPMR' against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm the exact temperature grade, packaging type, and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with RoHS directives if required for your region. Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributors to confirm current availability status and lead times, as inventory levels fluctuate.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems that require four distinct serial communication lines with substantial buffering capacity. The 64-byte FIFOs are critical for applications involving burst data transfers or varying baud rates. Consider the 80-LQFP package constraints regarding PCB space and thermal management. Verify that the operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the final assembly.

Part Context

This part belongs to the TL16C754 family of quad UARTs, which are widely used in legacy and modern embedded systems. It serves as a direct replacement for earlier TTL-level UARTs but offers improved performance through integrated FIFOs and lower power consumption. The device is often found in industrial automation, medical devices, and computer peripheral interfaces where reliable serial communication is essential.

Replacement Considerations

The TL16C754BPNR is a pin-compatible alternative from Texas Instruments. Verify that the FIFO size and operational voltage ranges match your design requirements before substitution. Other variants in the TL16C754 series may differ in package type or temperature rating.
