CRx – Command Register Extension, A and B
CR is used to write commands to the DUART.
CR[7] – Lock Tx and Rx enables.
If reset, the transmitter and receiver enable bits, CR[6:5] are not
significant. The enabled/disabled state of a receiver or transmitter
can be changed only if this bit is a “1” during the time of the write to
the command register.
WRITES TO THE LOWER 5 BITS OF THE CR WOULD USUALLY
HAVE CR[7]
AT “0” to maintain the condition of the receiver and transmitter. The
bit provides a mechanism for writing commands to a channel, via
CR[4:0], without the necessity of keeping track of or reading the
current enable status of the receiver and transmitter.
CR[6] – Enable Transmitter
A one written to this bit enables operation of the transmitter. The
TxRDY status bit will be asserted. When disabled by writing a zero
to this bit, the command terminates transmitter operation and resets
the TxRDY and Tx Idle status bits returning the transmitter to its idle
state . However, if a character is being transmitted or if characters
are loaded in the TxFIFO when the transmitter is disabled, the
transmission of the all character(s) is completed before assuming
the inactive state.
CR[5] – Enable Receiver
A one written to this bit enables operation of the receiver. The
receiver immediately begins the search for and the verification the
start bit. If a zero is written, this command terminates operation of
the receiver immediately – a character being received will be lost.
The command has no effect on the receiver status bits or any other
control registers. The data in the RxFIFO will be retained and may
be read. If the receiver is re–enabled subsequent data will be
appended to that already in the RxFIFO. If the special wake–up
mode is programmed, the receiver operates even if it is disabled
(see Wake–up Mode).
CR[4:0] – Miscellaneous Commands (See Table below)
The encoded value of this field can be used to specify a single
command as follows:
2000 Feb 10
Bit 7
Lock Tx and Rx Enables
0 = lock Rx & Tx state
1 = Change Rx & Tx state
00000 No command.
00001 Reserved
00010 Reset receiver. Immediately resets the receiver as if
hardware reset had been applied. The receiver is reset and the
FIFO pointer is reset to the first location effectively discarding all
unread characters in the FIFO.
00011 Reset transmitter. Immediately resets the transmitter as if a
hardware reset had been applied. The transmitter is reset and the
FIFO pointer is reset to the first location effectively discarding all
untransmitted characters in the FIFO.
00100 Reset error status. Clears the received break, parity error,
framing error, and overrun error bits in the status register
(SR[7:4]). It is used in either character or block mode. In block
mode it would normally be used after the block is read.
00101 Reset break change interrupt. Causes the break detect
change bit in the interrupt status register (ISR[2]) to be cleared to
zero.
Dual UART
Bit 6
Enable Tx
0 = disable
1 = enable
Bit 5
Enable Rx
0 = disable
1 = enable

Bit 4:0
Command Register codes.
(See Command Register Table)
The transmitter must be enabled to start a break.
00110 Start break. Forces the TxD output low (spacing). If the
transmitter is empty, the start of the break condition will be
delayed up to two bit times. If the transmitter is active and the
TxFIFO is empty then the break begins when transmission of the
current character is completed. If there are characters in the
TxFIFO, the start of break is delayed until all characters presently
in the TxFIFO and any subsequent characters loaded have been
transmitted. (Tx Idle must be true before break begins).
00111 Stop break. The TxD line will go high (marking) within two
bit times. TxD will remain high for one bit time before the next
character is transmitted.
01000 Assert RTSN. Causes the RTSN output to be asserted
(low).
01001 Negate RTSN. Causes the RTSN output to be negated
(high).
01010 Set C/T Receiver time out mode on
01011 Set MR Pointer to 0
01100 Set C/T Receiver time out mode off
01101 Block error status accumulation on FIFO entry. Allows the
“received break”, “framing error” and “parity error” bits to be set as
the received character is loaded to the RxFIFO. (normally these
bits are set on reading of the data from the RxFIFO) Setting this
mode can give information about error data up to 256 bytes earlier
than the normal mode. However it clouds the ability to know
precisely which byte(s) are in error.
01110 Power Down Mode On
01111 Disable Power Down Mode
10000 Transmit an Xon Character
10001 Transmit an Xoff Character
10010 C/T start sets the counter timer to the value of the
counter/timer preset register and starts the counter.
10011 C/T stop Effectively stops the counter/timer, captures the
last count value and resets the counter ready status bit in the ISR
10100 Reserved
10101 Reserved.
10110 Transmitter resume command (This command is not active
in “Auto–Transmit mode”). A command to cancel a previous Host
Xoff command. Upon receipt, the channel’s transmitter will
transfer a character, if any, from the TxFIFO and begin
transmission.
NOTE: The two commands above actually reset and set,
respectively, the I/O0 B (Channel A) or I/O1 B (Channel B)
pin associated with the OPR register. (See SOPR and
ROPR registers I/O pin control.
