Serial I/O
The PmT1 and PmE1 module has six TTL serial ports that are supplied by the MPC860P Pow-
erQUICC™. The MPC860P supports the serial ports with the following features:
• Communications Processor Module (CPM), which includes a RISC controller, 224 buffer
descriptors, continuous mode transmission and reception on all serial channels, dual-
port RAM, fourteen serial DMA (SDMA) channels, and NMSI mode (each serial channel
can have its own pins)
• Four serial communication controllers (SCCs)
• Two serial management controllers (SMCs) for the console and download serial ports
• Four baud rate generators that are independent (i.e., can be connected to any SCC or
SMC), allow changes during operation, and have autobaud support
• Protocols in firmware for asynchronous/synchronous UARTs, HDLC, and SS7
For detailed descriptions of the MPC860P features and examples of how to implement
them, refer to the MPC860 PowerQUICC™ User’s Manual.
