APPLICATION INFORMATION
u Synchronous modem with asynchronous interface
The MAS9138 is intended for applications where an asynchronous and synchronous data source must be linked
together. A typical case appears in a data modem where the terminal interface of the modem has been specified to
be asynchronous but the modem data pump operates in a synchronous fashion.
