Transmit And Receive Timers (Continued)
When a write from the PC/XT/AT is made to the Transmit
Holding Register, an interrupt to the Z180 MPU is generated.
The Z180 MPU then reads the data in the Transmit Holding
Register. Upon this read, if the Transmitter timer is enabled,
the time constant from the Transmitter Time Constant
Register is loaded into the Transmitter timer and enables
the count. After the timer reaches a count of zero the
Transmit Holding Register Empty bit is set. However, the
above is only true when the PC/XT/AT is reading the
Transmit Holding Register Empty bit. To allow the Z180
MPU to know that it has already read the byte of data,
immediately following a read from the Transmit Holding
Register, a mirrored Transmit Holding Register, Empty bit
is set. This mirrored bit is always read back to the Z180
MPU when it reads the Line Status Register.
If the transmitter timer is not enabled when the Z180 MPU
reads the Transmit Holding Register, both Transmit Holding
Register Empty bits are set immediately. In FIFO mode of
operation, the effect is similar as the status to PC is always
delayed such that a PC interrupt for empty FIFO will not
occur before the time required for each character read
from the FIFO by the Z180 has elapsed. The effect is that
the PC will not see data requests from an empty FIFO any
faster than would occur with a true UART when the delay
feature is enabled. This timer is also used to delay data
transfer for TSR buffer to Z80182 THR in double buffer
mode.

When the Z180
and the Receive Timer is enabled, the Receive Timer is
loaded with the Receive Time Constant, the timer is enabled
and counts down to zero. When the timer reaches zero, the
Data Ready bit in the Line Status Register is set. As with the
Transmit Timer, the Data Ready bit is also mirrored.
Immediately upon a write to the Receive Buffer, the mirrored
bit is set to let the Z180 MPU know that the byte has already
been written. If the timer is not enabled, then both Data
Ready bits are set immediately upon a write to the Receive
Buffer. The FIFO mode of operation is similar in that the
status to the PC is always delayed by the time required for
each character written to the FIFO by the Z180. The effect
is that the PC will not see a FIFO trigger level or DMA
request faster than would occur with a true UART when the
delay feature is enabled.
