For the RZ/A2M, it is NOT a "SCIFA"...even though it says that in the hardware manual. And honestly, I could not trace back where that IP came from. It was from somewhere in the MCU design section (not the SoC design section). Someone modified the IP so they put an "A" at the end to show it was different. Regardless, it has a different history than all the other IP supported by the SCI driver. Chris
