TX / RX mode control in a serial half-duplex transceiver away from the communicating host

摘要

Signaling to control transmit/receive mode transitions of a serial half-duplex transceiver coupled externally to an integrated circuit is provided by the integrated circuit separately from a host processor of the integrated circuit with which the transceiver communicates. This can avoid slow transceiver turn-around times that may be associated with host processor control of the mode transitions.
