This register enables four types of interrupts which independently activate the int signal and
set a value in the Interrupt Identification Register. Each of the four interrupt types can be
disabled by resetting the appropriate bit of the IER register. Similarly, by setting the
appropriate bits, selected interrupts can be enabled.
- Interrupt Identification Register (IIIR)
In order to minimize software overhead during data character transfers, the UART prioritizes
interrupts into four levels (listed in
Table 8-53UART Interrupt Priorities2 ) and records these in
the Interrupt Identification Register. The Interrupt Identification Register (IIR) stores
information indicating that a prioritized interrupt is pending and the source of that interrupt.
