Working Principles

The Z16C3220FSG is a highly integrated serial communication controller designed to facilitate efficient and reliable data transfer between devices. It operates based on the selected serial communication protocol (UART, SPI, or I2C) and provides features such as automatic hardware flow control, FIFO buffers, and error detection/correction mechanisms.

The controller communicates with external devices through its UART channels, which support full-duplex communication. It utilizes a programmable baud rate generator to establish the desired data transfer speed. The FIFO buffers ensure smooth data flow by temporarily storing incoming and outgoing data.

Interrupts play a crucial role in the controller's operation. The Z16C3220FSG offers eight external interrupts that can be configured to trigger specific actions when certain events occur. This allows for efficient event-driven communication and reduces the need for constant polling.
