ASR[0]: Transmitter disabled
logic 0 ⇒ The transmitter is not disabled by in-band flow
logic 1 ⇒ The receiver has detected an XOFF, and has
This bit is cleared after a hardware reset or channel
software reset. The software driver may write a 0 to this bit
to re-enable the transmitter if it was disabled by in-band
flow control. Writing a 1 to this bit has no effect.
ASR[1]: Remote transmitter disabled
logic 0 ⇒ The remote transmitter is not disabled by in-
logic 1 ⇒ The transmitter has sent an XOFF character,
This bit is cleared after a hardware reset or channel
software reset. The software driver may write a 0 to this bit
to re-enable the remote transmitter (an XON is
transmitted). Writing a 1 to this bit has no effect.
Note: The remaining bits (ASR[7:2]) of this register are read only
ASR[2]: RTS
This is the complement of the actual state of the RTS# pin
when the device is not in loopback mode. The driver
software can determine if the remote transmitter is disabled
by RTS# out-of-band flow control by reading this bit. In
loopback mode this bit reflects the flow control status rather
than the pin’s actual state.
ASR[3]: DTR
This is the complement of the actual state of the DTR# pin
when the device is not in loopback mode. The driver
software can determine if the remote transmitter is disabled
by DTR# out-of-band flow control by reading this bit. In
loopback mode this bit reflects the flow control status rather
than the pin’s actual state.
ASR[4]: Special character detected
logic 0 ⇒ No special character has been detected.
logic 1 ⇒ A special character has been received and is
This can be used to determine whether a level 5 interrupt
was caused by receiving a special character rather than an
XOFF. The flag is cleared following the read of the ASR.

ASR[5]: FIFOSEL
This bit reflects the unlatched state of the FIFOSEL pin.
ASR[6]: FIFO size
logic 0 ⇒ FIFOs are 16 deep if FCR[0] = 1.
logic 1 ⇒ FIFOs are 128 deep if FCR[0] = 1.
Note: If FCR[0] = 0, the FIFOs are 1 deep.
ASR[7]: Transmitter Idle
logic 0 ⇒ Transmitter is transmitting.
logic 1 ⇒ Transmitter is idle.
This bit reflects the state of the internal transmitter. It is set
when both the transmitter FIFO and shift register are
empty.
15.2
The number of characters stored in the THR and RHR can
be determined by reading the TFL and RFL registers
respectively. As the UART clock is asynchronous with
respect to the processor, it is possible for the levels to
change during a read of these FIFO levels. It is therefore
recommended that the levels are read twice and compared
to check that the values obtained are valid. The values
should be interpreted as follows:
1.
2.

The ACR register is located at offset 0x00 of the ICR
ACR[0]: Receiver disable
logic 0 ⇒ The receiver is enabled, receiving data and
logic 1 ⇒ The receiver is disabled. The receiver
Changes to this bit will only be recognised following the
completion of any data reception pending.
The number of characters in the THR is no greater
than the value read back from TFL.
The number of characters in the RHR is no less than
the value read back from RFL.

continues to operate as normal to maintain the
framing synchronisation with the receive data
stream but received data is not stored into the
RHR. In-band flow control characters continue
to be detected and acted upon. Special
characters will not be detected.
