FIFO Control Register (FCR)
The FCR, shown in
, is a write-only register that is located at the same address as the
IIR, which is a read-only register. The FCR enables/disables the transmitter/receiver FIFOs, clears
the transmitter/receiver FIFOs, and sets the receiver FIFO trigger threshold.
This is a write-only register. Write zeros to reserved bits.

ITL
Interrupt Trigger Level (threshold) – When the number of bytes in the receiver FIFO equals
the interrupt trigger threshold programmed into this field and the received data available
interrupt is enabled via the IER, an interrupt is generated and appropriate bits are set in the
IIR. The receive DMA request is also generated when the trigger threshold is reached.
0b00 – 1 byte or more in FIFO causes interrupt (not valid in DMA mode)
0b01 – 8 bytes or more in FIFO causes interrupt and DMA request
0b10 – 16 bytes or more in FIFO causes interrupt and DMA request
0b11 – 32 bytes or more in FIFO causes interrupt and DMA request

TIL
Transmitter Interrupt Level – Determines when interrupts or DMA requests are sent from the
transmit FIFO.
0 = Interrupt/DMA request when FIFO is half empty.
1 = Interrupt/DMA request when FIFO is empty
2
RESETTF
Reset Transmitter FIFO – When RESETTF is set to 1, all the bytes in the transmitter FIFO
are cleared. The TDRQ bit in the LSR is set and the IIR shows a transmitter requests data
interrupt, if the TIE bit in the IER is set. The Transmitter Shift register is not cleared and it
completes the current transmission.
0 = Writing 0 has no effect
1 = The transmitter FIFO is cleared
