or parity bit is detected as a zero bit (Spacing level). The
FE is reset to a logic "0" whenever the Line Status
Register is read.
associated with the particular character in the FIFO it
applies to. This error is indicated when the associated
character is at the top of the FIFO. The Serial Port will try
to resynchronize after a framing error.
assumes that the framing error was due to the next start
bit, so it samples this 'start' bit twice and then takes in the
'data'.
Bit 4
Break Interrupt (BI). Bit 4 is set to a logic "1" whenever
the received data input is held in the Spacing state (logic
"0") for longer than a full word transmission time (that is,
the total time of the start bit + data bits + parity bits + stop
bits). The BI is reset after the CPU reads the contents of
the Line Status Register. In the FIFO mode this error is
associated with the particular character in the FIFO it
applies to. This error is indicated when the associated
character is at the top of the FIFO. When break occurs
only one zero character is loaded into the FIFO.
Restarting after a break is received, requires the serial
data (RXD) to be logic "1" for at least 1/2 bit time.
Note: Bits 1 through 4 are the error conditions that
produce a Receiver Line Status Interrupt whenever any of
the corresponding conditions are detected and the
interrupt is enabled.
In the FIFO mode this error is

Bit 5
Transmitter Holding Register Empty (THRE).
indicates that the Serial Port is ready to accept a new
character for transmission. In addition, this bit causes the
Serial Port to issue an interrupt when the Transmitter
Holding Register interrupt enable is set high. The THRE
bit is set to a logic "1" when a character is transferred
from the Transmitter Holding Register into the Transmitter
Shift Register. The bit is reset to logic "0" whenever the
CPU loads the Transmitter Holding Register. In the FIFO
mode this bit is set when the XMIT FIFO is empty, it is
cleared when at least 1 byte is written to the XMIT FIFO.
Bit 5 is a read only bit.
Bit 6
Transmitter Empty (TEMT). Bit 6 is set to a logic "1"
whenever the Transmitter Holding Register (THR) and
Transmitter Shift Register (TSR) are both empty. It is
reset to logic "0" whenever either the THR or TSR
contains a data character. Bit 6 is a read only bit. In the
FIFO mode this bit is set whenever the THR and TSR are
both empty,
Bit 7
This bit is permanently set to logic "0" in the 450 mode.
In the FIFO mode, this bit is set to a logic "1" when there
is at least one parity error, framing error or break
indication in the FIFO. This bit is cleared when the LSR
is read if there are no subsequent errors in the FIFO.
MODEM STATUS REGISTER (MSR)
Address Offset = 6H, DLAB = X, READ/WRITE
This 8 bit register provides the current state of the control
lines from the MODEM (or peripheral device). In addition
to this current state information, four bits of the MODEM
Status Register (MSR)
These bits are set to logic "1" whenever a control
input from the MODEM changes state. They are reset to
logic "0" whenever the MODEM Status Register is read.
