7.5 Line Control Register (LCR)
Table 14.
The Line Control Register is used to specify the asynchronous data communication
format. The word length, the number of stop bits, and the parity are selected by writing the
appropriate bits in this register.

Description
INT status.
Description
Divisor latch enable. The internal baud rate counter latch and Enhanced
Feature mode enable.
Set break. When enabled, the Break control bit causes a break condition to
be transmitted (the TX output is forced to a logic 0 state). This condition
exists until disabled by setting LCR[6] to a logic 0.
Programs the parity conditions (see
Stop bits. The length of stop bit is specified by this bit in conjunction with the
programmed word length (see
Word length bits 1, 0. These two bits specify the word length to be
transmitted or received (see

logic 0 = an interrupt is pending and the ISR contents may be used as a
pointer to the appropriate interrupt service routine
logic 1 = no interrupt pending (normal default condition)
logic 0 = divisor latch disabled (normal default condition)
logic 1 = divisor latch enabled
logic 0 = no TX break condition (normal default condition)
logic 1 = forces the transmitter output (TX) to a logic 0 for alerting the
remote receiver to a line break condition
logic 0 or cleared = default condition
logic 0 or cleared = default condition
