• Manufacturer: SMSC [SMSC Corporation]

Bit 5
Transmitter Holding Register Empty (THRE). Bit 5 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) provide change information. 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.
Bit 0
Delta Clear To Send (DCTS). Bit 0 indicates that the nCTS input to the chip has changed state since the last time the
MSR was read.
Bit 1
Delta Data Set Ready (DDSR). Bit 1 indicates that the nDSR input has changed state since the last time the MSR was
read.
Bit 2
Trailing Edge of Ring Indicator (TERI). Bit 2 indicates that the nRI input has changed from logic "0" to logic "1".
Bit 3
Delta Data Carrier Detect (DDCD). Bit 3 indicates that the nDCD input to the chip has changed state.
Note: Whenever bit 0, 1, 2, or 3 is set to a logic "1", a MODEM Status Interrupt is generated.
Bit 4
This bit is the complement of the Clear To Send (nCTS) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic "1", this bit is equivalent
to nRTS in the MCR.
Bit 5
This bit is the complement of the Data Set Ready (nDSR) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic "1", this bit is
equivalent to DTR in the MCR.
Bit 6
This bit is the complement of the Ring Indicator (nRI) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic "1", this bit is equivalent to
OUT1 in the MCR.
Bit 7
This bit is the complement of the Data Carrier
Detect (nDCD) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic "1", this bit is equivalent to OUT2 in the MCR.
