XR17D158
UNIVERSAL (3.3V AND 5V) PCI BUS OCTAL UART
REV. P1.0.0
MCR[6]: Infrared Encoder/Decoder Enable
The state of this bit depends on the sampled logic level of pin ENIR during power up, following a hardware
reset or a soft-reset. Afterward user can override this bit for desired operation.
MCR[7]: Clock Prescaler Select
LINE STATUS REGISTER (LSR)
This register provides the status of data transfers between the UART and the host.
LSR[0]: Receive Data Ready Indicator
LSR[1]: Receiver Overrun Flag
LSR[2]: Receive Data Parity Error Flag
LSR[3]: Receive Data Framing Error Flag
LSR[4]: Receive Break Flag
Logic 0 = Disable the infrared mode, operates in the normal serial character mode.
Logic 1 = Enable infrared IrDA receive and transmit inputs/outputs. While in this mode, the TX/RX output/
input are routed to the infrared encoder/decoder. The data input and output levels will conform to the IrDA
infrared interface requirement. As such, while in this mode the infrared TX output will be a logic 0 during idle
data conditions. FCTR bit-4 may be selected to invert the RX input signal level going to the decoder for
infrared modules that provide rather an inverted output.
Logic 0 = Divide by one. The input clock from the crystal or external clock is fed directly to the Programmable
Baud Rate Generator without further modification, i.e., divide by one (default).
Logic 1 = Divide by four. The prescaler divides the input clock from the crystal or external clock by four and
feeds it to the Programmable Baud Rate Generator, hence, data rates become one forth.
Logic 0 = No data in receive holding register or FIFO (default).
Logic 1 = Data has been received and is saved in the receive holding register or FIFO.
Logic 0 = No overrun error (default).
Logic 1 = Overrun error. A data overrun error condition occurred in the receive shift register. This happens
when additional data arrives while the FIFO is full. In this case the previous data in the receive shift register is
overwritten. Note that under this condition the data byte in the receive shift register is not transferred into the
FIFO, therefore the data in the FIFO is not corrupted by the error.
Logic 0 = No parity error (default).
Logic 1 = Parity error. The receive character in RHR does not have correct parity information and is suspect.
This error is associated with the character available for reading in RHR.
Logic 0 = No framing error (default).
Logic 1 = Framing error. The receive character did not have a valid stop bit(s). This error is associated with
the character available for reading in RHR.
Logic 0 = No break condition (default).
Logic 1 = The receiver received a break signal (RX was a logic 0 for one character frame time). In the FIFO
mode, only one break character is loaded into the FIFO. The break indication remains until the RX input
returns to the idle condition, “mark” or logic 1.
