Serial interrupts on Mx2 chip

Sundeep Subbarau

Hi
This question is about serial interrupts on the 8051 based extended memory chip (P87C51Mx2).

The transmit interrupt TI_0 is supposed to be set when a character is written to S0BUF. This is not happening.
My initialization settings are as follows (I'm initializing both the UART channels)

T2CON = 0x30;
RCAP2H = 0xFF; // BAUD for UART0 - 9600
RCAP2L = 0xB8;

S0CON = 0x50;
S1CON = 0x50;

TXD   = 1;
RXD   = 1;
TXD1  = 1;
RXD1  = 1;
ES0   = 1;
ES1   = 1;

S0STAT = 0x00;
S1STAT = 0x00;

TR2 = 1;

BRGCON = 0x00; //UART1 baud - 38400
BRGR1 = 0x01;
BRGR0 = 0x10;
BRGCON = 0x01;


I'm setting the bits TI_0 or TI_1 when I've data to transmit and resetting it in the ISR. But what I observe is that the ISR is entered only once and never again!

The processor runs at 6 clock mode and 11.0592 MHz oscillator frequency.

Any help would be appreciated.

warm regards,
Sundeep M S

    My mistake!

    My application was also generating a timer0 interrupt for which I had deleted the handler by mistake. Since timer 0 interrupts have a higher priority than serial interrupts, my application was failing.

    Thanks for the trouble.

    P.S : The simulator works fine for both the UARTS.
