¡ Semiconductor
with IrDA1.0 is in SIR mode or Extended-SIR mode, while communication with IrDA1.1 is in
MIR mode or FIR mode. In SIR mode, the MSM9405 has the necessary UART feature for IrDA
communication. The Extended-SIR mode is an original feature of the MSM9405. In this mode,
BOF/EOF insertion and CRC calculation/check are performed by the MSM9405. Therefore, the
burden to the CPU can be reduced compared with IrDA1.0 communication using ordinary
UART. Moreover, the Extended-SIR mode allows DMA transfer even in IrDA1.0 communication.
In MIR mode, IrDA1.1 communication at up to 1.152 Mbps is possible. The FIR mode supports
4 Mbps transfer for IrDA1.1. Features of each mode are as follows:
the ICR1 (Infrared Control Register 1). For sending, writing "1" in TX_EN puts the MSM9405
in the sending mode. Writing "1" in RX_EN puts the MSM9405 in the receiving mode. If "0" is
written to both TX_EN and RX_EN bits, the MSM9405 does not perform sending/receiving but
enters the idle state. Each register can be set even during the idle state. Data to be sent can be
written in advance to the FIFO during the idle state.
and demand transfer mode, but not the block transfer mode. When a DMA controller with TC
output is used for sending, the DMA controller and MSM9405 automatically perform high-
speed transfer if the maximum frame length is specified for TFL and the transfer data length for
the TC counter of the DMA controller.
level or time-out occurs.
level. Sent data is written and DREQ is deasserted when the FIFO becomes full or TXE_EV
occurs.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Modes
There are four modes provided by the MSM9405 for IrDA communication. Communication
Sending/Receiving Switching Method
Mode switching between sending and receiving is made using the TX_EN and RX_EN bits in
If "1" is written to both TX_EN and RX_EN, the MSM9405 is put in the receiving mode.
DMA Transfer
The MSM9405 allows DMA transfer. The DMA transfer mode covers the single transfer mode
The timing when the DREQ signal is asserted is as follows:
During receiving, DREQ is asserted when data in the FIFO is at or above the receiving threshold
If all of the received data in the FIFO is read, DREQ is deasserted.
During sending, DREQ is asserted when data in the FIFO is lower than the sending threshold
