Transmit FIFO level byte count from 0x00 (LOW) to 0x40 (64). This 8-bit register gives an indication of the
number of characters in the transmit FIFO. The FIFO level Byte count register is read only. The user can take
advantage of the FIFO level byte counter for faster data loading to the transmit FIFO, which reduces CPU
bandwidth requirements.
An 8-bit value written to this register sets the TX FIFO trigger level from 0x00 (zero) to 0x40 (64). The TX FIFO
trigger level generates an interrupt whenever the data level in the transmit FIFO falls below this preset trigger
level.
Receive FIFO level byte count from 0x00 (zero) to 0x40 (64). It gives an indication of the number of characters
in the receive FIFO. The FIFO level byte count register is read only. The user can take advantage of the FIFO
level byte counter for faster data unloading from the receiver FIFO, which reduces CPU bandwidth
requirements.
An 8-bit value written to this register, sets the RX FIFO trigger level from 0x00 (zero) to 0x40 (64). The RX
FIFO trigger level generates an interrupt whenever the receive FIFO level rises to this preset trigger level.
These registers are used to program the Xoff1, Xoff2, Xon1 and Xon2 control characters respectively.
