FIGURE 4. TYPICAL OSCILLATOR CONNECTIONS
The on-chip oscillator is designed to use an industry standard microprocessor crystal (parallel resonant,
fundamental frequency with 10-22 pF capacitance load, ESR of 20-120 ohms and 100ppm frequency
tolerance) connected externally between the XTAL1 and XTAL2 pins (see
Figure 4). Alternatively, an external
clock can be connected to the XTAL1 pin to clock the internal baud rate generator for standard or custom rates.
Typical oscillator connections are shown in
Figure 4. For further reading on oscillator circuit please see
application note DAN108 on EXAR’s web site.

Programmable Baud Rate Generator
A single Baud Rate Generator (BRG) is provided for the transmitter and receiver, allowing independent TX/RX
channel control. The programmable Baud Rate Generator is capable of operating with a crystal frequency of
up to 24 MHz. However, with an external clock input on XTAL1 pin and a 2K ohms pull-up resistor on XTAL2
pin (as shown in
Figure 5) it can extend its operation up to 50 MHz (3.125 Mbps serial data rate) at room
temperature and 5.0V.
FIGURE 5. EXTERNAL CLOCK CONNECTION FOR EXTENDED DATA RATE
Each UART also has their own prescaler along with the BRG. The prescaler is controlled by a software bit in
the MCR register. The MCR register bit-7 sets the prescaler to divide the input crystal or external clock by 1 or
4. The clock output of the prescaler goes to the BRG. The BRG further divides this clock by a programmable
