12.2.3 UART3 Environment
The UART3 is a UART modem with IrDA capability.
The IrDA mode (SIR) is selectable by setting the MODE_SELECT bits (2:0)
of the UART3 MDRI register to 001. Set the IRDA_SELECT signal to 1.
You can use the IRDA_SELECT signal to control the multiplexing on the
UART3 I/Os between the UART3 modem signals and the UART3 IrDA signals.
Table 12–4 lists the UART3 IrDA signals accessible at the OMAP5910 level
when IRDA_SELECT = 1.
