9.3.2 Trigger Levels

The TL16C750E UART provides independent selectable and programmable trigger levels for both receiver and transmitter DMA and interrupt generation. After reset, both transmitter and receiver FIFOs are disabled and so, in effect, the trigger level is the default value of one byte. The selectable trigger levels are available through the FCR. The programmable trigger levels are available through the TLR.

Both the receiver and transmitter FIFOs can store up to 128 bytes (including three additional bits of error status per byte for the receiver FIFO) and have selectable or programmable trigger levels. Primary outputs RXRDY and TXRDY allow signaling of DMA transfers.

NOTE

When writing data into the transmit FIFO, the transmission starts immediately, which shifts the first element out of the FIFO. Depending on the speed of the processor, it may be possible to get a pulse on the TXRDY pin, since the level falls below the trigger threshold.
