FIFO POLLED MODE OPERATION
With FCR bit 0 = "1" resetting IER bits 0, 1, 2 or 3 or all to zero puts the UART in the FIFO Polled Mode of operation.
Since the RCVR and XMITTER are controlled separately, either one or both can be in the polled mode of operation. In
this mode, the user's program will check RCVR and XMITTER status via the LSR. LSR definitions for the FIFO Polled
Mode are as follows:
ꢀ
ꢀ
Bit 0=1 as long as there is one byte in the RCVR FIFO.
Bits 1 to 4 specify which error(s) have occurred. Character error status is handled the same way as when
in the interrupt mode, the IIR is not affected since EIR bit 2=0.
Bit 5 indicates when the XMIT FIFO is empty.
ꢀ
ꢀ
ꢀ
Bit 6 indicates that both the XMIT FIFO and shift register are empty.
Bit 7 indicates whether there are any errors in the RCVR FIFO.
There is no trigger level reached or timeout condition indicated in the FIFO Polled Mode, however, the RCVR and XMIT
FIFOs are still fully capable of holding characters.
