Receive FIFO Occupancy Register (FOR)

The FOR, shown in

Table 17-11

, shows the number of bytes currently remaining in the receive

FIFO. It can be used by the processor to determine the number of trailing bytes to remove. The

FOR is incremented once for each byte of data written to the receive FIFO and decremented once

for each byte read.

This is a read/write register. Ignore reads from reserved bits. Write zeros to reserved bits.

RESETRF

Reset Receiver FIFO – When RESETRF is set to 1, all the bytes in the receiver FIFO are
cleared. The DR bit in the LSR is reset to 0. All the error bits in the FIFO and the FIFOE bit

in the LSR are cleared. Any error bits, OE, PE, FE or BI, that had been set in LSR are still
set. The receiver shift register is not cleared. If the IIR had been set to received data

available, it is cleared.
0 = Writing 0 has no effect
1 = The receiver FIFO is cleared

0

TRFIFOE

Transmit and Receive FIFO Enable – TRFIFOE enables/disables the transmitter and

receiver FIFOs. When TRFIFOE = 1, both FIFOs are enabled (FIFO Mode). When

TRFIFOE = 0, the FIFOs are both disabled (non-FIFO Mode). Writing a 0 to this bit clears
all bytes in both FIFOs. When changing from FIFO mode to non-FIFO mode and vice versa,

data is automatically cleared from the FIFOs. This bit must be 1 when other bits in this
register are written or the other bits are not programmed.
0 = FIFOs are disabled

1 = FIFOs are enabled
