SMSC DS – LPC47N237
Modem Status Register (MSR)
Address Offset = 6H, DLAB = X, READ/WRITE
This 8 bit register provides the current state of the control lines from the MODEM (or peripheral device). In
addition to this current state information, four bits of the MODEM Status Register (MSR) provide change
information. These bits are set to logic "1" whenever a control input from the MODEM changes state. They
are reset to logic "0" whenever the MODEM Status Register is read.
Bit 0
Delta Clear To Send (DCTS). Bit 0 indicates that the nCTS input to the chip has changed state since the last
time the MSR was read.
Bit 1
Delta Data Set Ready (DDSR). Bit 1 indicates that the nDSR input has changed state since the last time the
MSR was read.
Bit 2
Trailing Edge of Ring Indicator (TERI). Bit 2 indicates that the nRI input has changed from logic "0" to logic
"1".
Bit 3
Delta Data Carrier Detect (DDCD). Bit 3 indicates that the nDCD input to the chip has changed state.
Whenever bit 0, 1, 2, or 3 is set to a logic "1", a MODEM Status Interrupt is generated.
Bit 4
This bit is the complement of the Clear To Send (nCTS) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic "1", this bit is
equivalent to nRTS in the MCR.
Bit 5
This bit is the complement of the Data Set Ready (nDSR) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic "1", this bit is
equivalent to DTR in the MCR.
Bit 6
This bit is the complement of the Ring Indicator (nRI) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic "1", this bit is
equivalent to OUT1 in the MCR.
Bit 7
This bit is the complement of the Data Carrier
Detect (nDCD) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic "1", this bit is equivalent to OUT2 in the MCR.
