40.Sh NAME
41.Nm clmpcc
42.Nd Cirrus Logic CD2400/CD2401 serial communications controller
43.Sh SYNOPSIS
44.Cd "clmpcc0   at pcctwo? ipl 4"
45.Pp
46.Sh DESCRIPTION
47The
48.Nm
49driver provides support for the Cirrus Logic CD2401 Multi-protocol
50Communications Controller found on Motorola MVME167 and MVME177
51single-board computers.
52.Pp
53The chip integrates four serial channels in one package,
54with each channel being completely independent and capable of
55running in Async (with optional DMA control), Bisync, HDLC/SDLC and
56X.21 modes. Each channel has 32 bytes of FIFO, split into 16 bytes
57for the Tx side and 16 bytes for the Rx side.
58.Pp
59At the present time, the
60.Nm
61driver supports the non-DMA Async mode of operation, utilising the
62channel FIFOs to maximize throughput with minimal interrupt overhead.
63.Pp
64The Motorola MVME1x7 boards provide a 20MHz master clock to the device,
65which allows the Tx and Rx side to be independently set to any
66baud rate in the range 50 to 57600.
67The device should be capable of running at
68a baud rate of 115200, however it is not a rate documented in the
69device's datasheet for Async. mode so is not recommended.
