Product data sheet
7.4 Interrupt Status Register (ISR)
Table 12.
The SC16C550B provides four levels of prioritized interrupts to minimize external software
interaction. The Interrupt Status Register (ISR) provides the user with four interrupt status
bits. Performing a read cycle on the ISR will provide the user with the highest pending
interrupt level to be serviced. No other interrupts are acknowledged until the pending
interrupt is serviced. Whenever the interrupt status register is read, the interrupt status is
cleared. However, it should be noted that only the current pending interrupt is cleared by
the read. A lower level interrupt may be seen after re-reading the interrupt status bits.

Description
FIFOs enabled. These bits are set to a logic 0 when the FIFO is not
being used. They are set to a logic 1 when the FIFOs are enabled.
not used
INT priority bits 2:0. These bits indicate the source for a pending
interrupt at interrupt priority levels 1, 2, and 3 (see
INT status.
logic 0 or cleared = default condition
logic 0 or cleared = default condition
logic 0 = an interrupt is pending and the ISR contents may be used as
a pointer to the appropriate interrupt service routine
logic 1 = no interrupt pending (normal default condition)
