UARTs

Bit 7 of the IER is used to enable DMA requests. The IER also contains the unit enable and NRZ
coding enable control bits. Bits 7 through 4 are used differently from the standard 16550 register
definition.

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

Note:

To ensure that the DMA controller and programmed I/O do not access the same FIFO, software
must not set the DMAE while the TIE or RAVIE bits are set to a 1.

Interrupt Identification Register (IIR)

The UART prioritizes interrupts in four levels (see

Table 10-8

) and records them in the IIR. The

IIR, shown in

Table 10-9

, stores information that indicates that a prioritized interrupt is pending

and identifies the source of the interrupt.

7

DMAE

DMA Requests Enable.

0 – DMA requests are disabled
1 – DMA requests are enabled

6

UUE

UART Unit Enable.

0 – The unit is disabled
1 – The unit is enabled

5

NRZE

NRZ coding Enable. NRZ encoding/decoding is only used in UART mode, not in infrared
mode. If the slow infrared receiver or transmitter is enabled, NRZ coding is disabled.

0 – NRZ coding disabled
1 – NRZ coding enabled

4

RTOIE

Character Timeout Indication Interrupt Enable.

0 – Character Timeout Indication interrupt disabled
1 – Character Timeout Indication interrupt enabled

3

MIE

Modem Interrupt Enable.

0 – Modem Status interrupt disabled
1 – Modem Status interrupt enabled

2

RLSE

Receiver Line Status Interrupt Enable.

0 – Receiver Line Status interrupt disabled
1 – Receiver Line Status interrupt enabled

1

TIE

Transmit Data request Interrupt Enable.

0 – Transmit FIFO Data Request interrupt disabled
1 – Transmit FIFO Data Request interrupt enabled

0

RAVIE

Receiver Data Available Interrupt Enable.

0 – Receiver Data Available (Trigger level reached) interrupt disabled
1 – Receiver Data Available (Trigger level reached) interrupt enabled
