## Control Signals (Default Configuration)

**RTS**, **CTS**, **DSR**, **DTR**, **DCD**, **RI** are **active-low** signals,
**TXA** is active-high signal.
**TXA** is an active-high signal.

**TXA** is active when UART is transmitting data and can be used to control
**DE** and **/RE** signals of RS-485 converters and such.
**TXA** (**TX** **A**ctive) is active when UART is transmitting data and
can be used to control **DE** and **/RE** pins of RS-485 transceivers.

**TXA** goes inactive within 1 us after the transmission is complete,
which meets RS-485 and IO-link timing requirements at speeds up to 460 kBaud
with at least double safety margin.

**DSR**, **DTR**, and **DCD**, **RI** are connected to the internal _weak pull-up_
resistors, so they remain inactive at rest.
