Abstract :
The universal controller of serial interfaces with separate processing of data link and physical layer functions is proposed. The data link layer functions are implemented in software using a microcontroller, and physical level functions -in hardware using programmable logical device (FPGA or CPLD). It provides minimal utilization of hardware during interface controller design, high device flexibility and efficient use of microcontroller computing power.
