I am using ADSP 21364 processor for audio processsing application.
For interfacing ADSP21364 to system USB is used.FT232R (USB to UART
convertor) is used for that purpose.Serial port of ADSP21364 is used for
USB interface.But in application note EE191 its given than serial port
in UART mode,the processor has to poll the serial frame sync pin in each
serial clock signal.Is it mean the core is idle in these condition?
Can the processor be used for some other purpose during this period?

It would be much easier to use an ADSP-21369 or ADSP-21371 since there
is a hardware UART on the device. We usually use the FT245R with the
SHARC and avoid the UART altogether. In this situation, we still treat
the USB as a fast com port on the PC side.
