TCR shows the number of characters that can be stored in TX FIFO. In 64-byte FIFO
mode, it consists of only TCR[6:0]. If the number of characters that can be stored in TX
FiFO is 0, it is shown as ‘0000_0000’ and if 64, it is shown as ‘0100_0000’. In 256-byte
FIFO mode, it consists of ISR[7] + TCR[7:0]. If the number of characters that can be
stored in TX FiFO is 0, it is shown as ‘0_0000_0000’ and if 255, it is shown as
‘0_1111_1111’. And in case of the maximum number 256, it is shown as ‘1_0000_0000’.
7.15 Receive FIFO Count Register (RCR, Page 2)
RCR shows the number of characters that is stored in RX FIFO. In 64-byte FIFO mode, it
consists of only RCR[6:0]. If the number of characters that is stored in RX FiFO is 0, it is
shown as ‘0000_0000’ and if 64, it is shown as ‘0100_0000’. In 256-byte FIFO mode, it
consists of ISR[6] + RCR[7:0]. If the number of characters that is stored in RX FiFO is 0, it
is shown as ‘0_0000_0000’ and if 255, it is shown as ‘0_1111_1111’. And in case of the
maximum number 256, it is shown as ‘1_0000_0000’.
7.16 Flow Control Status Register (FSR, Page 2)
FSR show the status of operation of TX Hardware Flow Control, RX Hardware Flow
Control, TX Software Flow Control, and RX Software Flow Control.

Not used, always ‘00’.
TX Hardware Flow Control Status.
0 : When FIFO or Auto-RTS flow control is disabled.
If FIFO and Auto-RTS flow control is enabled, it means
the number of data received in RX FIFO at the first time
is less than the value of FUR, or it means the number of
data in RX FIFO was more than the value of FUR and
after the CPU read them, the number of data that
remains unread is less than or equal to the value of FLR.
That is, UART reports external device that it can receive
more characters.
1 : It shows that the number of data received in RX FIFO
exceeds the value of FUR and UART reports external
device that it cannot receive more data. If RX FIFO has
space to store more data, new data are stored in RX
FIFO but after it gets full, they are lost.
For more details, refer to ‘6.2 Hardware Flow Control’.

FSR[4]
TX Software Flow Control Status.
0 : When FIFO or Software flow control is disabled.
If FIFO and Software flow control is enabled, it means
the number of data received in RX FIFO at the first time
is less than the value of FUR, or it means the number of
data in RX FIFO was more than the value of FUR and
after the CPU read them, the number of data that
remains unread after the CPU read the data received in
RX FIFO is less than or equal to the value of FLR. That
