IrDA Mode
Infrared (IrDA) mode uses character frames as NRZ mode does, but, instead of driving ones and zeros for
a full bit-time period, zeros are transmitted as three-sixteenth (or less) bit-time pulses, and ones remain
low. The polarity of transmitted pulses and expected receive pulses can be inverted so that a direct
connection can be made to external IrDA transceiver modules that uses active low pulses. Figure 14-3
illustrates a character in IrDA mode.

Serial Interface Signals
The UART module has five signals that are used to communicate with external UART-compatible devices.
The pins of both UART modules operate identically. Exceptions in pin and register nomenclature are noted
in the following descriptions:
The pins of both UART modules operate identically. Exceptions in pin and register nomenclature are noted
in the following descriptions:
•
TXD1/TXD2—The RS-232 Transmit Data signal, which is multiplexed with PE5 in UART 1 (PJ5
in UART 2
in UART 2
)
, is the RS-232 transmitter serial output. This pin connects to standard RS-232 or
infrared transceiver modules. While the UART is in NRZ mode, normal data is output with “marks”
transmitted as logic high and “spaces” transmitted as logic low. In IrDA mode, this pin, which is a
configurable narrow pulse, is output for each zero bit that is transmitted.

configurable narrow pulse, is output for each zero bit that is transmitted.
•
CTS1/CTS2—The Clear to Send signal, which is multiplexed with PE7 (PJ7 in UART 2), is an
active low input used for transmitter flow control. The transmitter waits until this signal is asserted
(low) before it starts transmitting a character. If this signal is negated while a character is being
transmitted, the character will be completed, but no additional characters are transmitted until this
signal is asserted again. The current value of this pin can be read in the CTSx STAT bit of the
corresponding UART transmitter (UTX) register.

NOTE:
If the NOCTSx bit of the UTX register is set, the transmitter sends a
character whenever a character is ready to be transmitted. The CTSx pin
can be programmed to post an interrupt on rising and falling edges if the
CTSD bit is set in the corresponding UART control (USTCNT) register.
