ACR[7]: Additional status enable
logic 0
logic 1
When ACR[7] is set, the MCR, LCR and IER registers are
no longer readable but remain writable, and the registers
ASR, TFL and RFL replace them in the register map for
read operations. The software driver may leave this bit set
during normal operation, since MCR, LCR and IER do not
generally need to be read.
7.11.4 Transmitter Trigger Level ‘TTL’
The TTL register is located at offset 0x04 of the ICR
Whenever 950 trigger levels are enabled (ACR[5]=1), bits 4
and 5 of FCR are ignored and an alternative arbitrary
transmitter interrupt trigger level can be defined in the TTL
register. This 7-bit value provides a fully programmable
transmitter interrupt trigger facility. In 950 mode, a priority
level 3 interrupt occurs indicating that the transmitter buffer
requires more characters when the interrupt is not masked
(IER[1]=1) and the transmitter FIFO level falls below the
value stored in the TTL register. The value 0 (0x00) has a
special meaning. In 950 mode when the user writes 0x00
to the TTL register, a level 3 interrupt only occurs when the
FIFO and the transmitter shift register are both empty and
the SOUT line is in the idle marking state. This feature is
particularly useful to report back the empty state of the
transmitter after its FIFO has been flushed away.
7.11.5 Receiver Interrupt. Trigger Level ‘RTL’
The RTL register is located at offset 0x05 of the ICR
Whenever 950 trigger levels are enabled (ACR[5]=1), bits 6
and 7 of FCR are ignored and an alternative arbitrary
receiver interrupt trigger level can be defined in the RTL
register. This 7-bit value provides a fully programmable
receiver interrupt trigger facility as opposed to the limited
trigger levels available in 16C650 and 16C750 devices. It
enables the system designer to optimise the interrupt
performance hence minimising the interrupt overhead.
In 950 mode, a priority level 2 interrupt occurs indicating
that the receiver data is available when the interrupt is not
masked (IER[0]=1) and the receiver FIFO level reaches
the value stored in this register.
7.11.6 Flow Control Levels ‘FCL’ & ‘FCH’
The FCL and FCH registers are located at offsets 0x06 and
0x07 of the ICR respectively
Data Sheet Revision 1.3
OXFORD SEMICONDUCTOR LTD.
Access to the ASR, TFL and RFL registers is
disabled.
Access to the ASR, TFL and RFL registers is
enabled.
Enhanced software flow control using XON/XOFF and
hardware flow control using RTS#/CTS# and DTR#/DSR#
are available when 950 mode trigger levels are enabled
(ACR[5]=1). Improved flow control threshold levels are
offered using Flow Control Lower trigger level (‘FCL’) and
Flow Control Higher trigger level (‘FCH’) registers to
provide a greater degree of flexibility when optimising the
flow control performance. Generally, these facilities are
only available in Enhanced mode.
In 650 mode, in-band flow control is enabled using the EFR
register. An XOFF character may be transmitted when the
receiver FIFO exceeds the upper trigger level defined by
FCR[7:6] as described in section 7.4.1. An XON is then
sent when the FIFO is read down the lower fill level. The
flow control is enabled and the appropriate mode is
selected using EFR[3:0].
In 950 mode, the flow control thresholds defined by
FCR[7:6] are ignored. In this mode, threshold levels are
programmed using FCL and FCH. When flow control is
enabled by EFR[3:0] and the receiver FIFO level (‘RFL’)
reaches the value programmed in the FCH register, an
XOFF will be transmitted to stop the flow of serial data as
defined by EFR[3:0]. When the receiver FIFO level falls
below the value programmed in FCL the flow is resumed
by sending an XON character (as defined in EFR[3:0]). The
FCL value of 0x00 is illegal.
CTS/RTS and DSR/DTR out-of-band flow control use the
same trigger levels as in-band flow control. When out-of-
band flow control is enabled, RTS# (or DTR#) line is de-
asserted when the receiver FIFO level reaches the upper
limit defined in the FCH and is re-asserted when the
receiver FIFO is drained below a lower limit defined in FCL.
When 950 trigger levels are enabled (ACR[5]=1), the CTS#
flow control functions as in 650 mode and is configured by
EFR[7]. However, RTS# is automatically de-asserted and
re-asserted when EFR[6] is set and RFL reaches FCH and
drops below FCL. DSR# flow control is configured with
ACR[2]. DTR# flow control is configured with ACR[4:3].
7.11.7 Device Identification Registers
The identification registers is located at offsets 0x08 to
0x0B of the ICR
The UARTs offer four bytes of device identification. The
device ID registers may be read using offset values 0x08 to
0x0B of the Indexed Control Register. Registers ID1, ID2
and ID3 identify the device as an OX16C950 and return
0x16, 0xC9 and 0x50 respectively. The REV register
resides at offset 0x0B of ICR and identifies the revision of
OX16C950. This register returns 0x01 for revision A of the
OX16PCI954.
