MSR
Modem Status Register
It should be noted that whenever bits 0, 1, 2 or 3 is set to logic one, to indicate
a change on the modem control inputs, a modem status interrupt will be generated
if enabled via the IER regardless of when the change occurred. Since the delta bits
(bits 0, 1, 3) can get set after a reset if their respective modem signals are
active (see individual bits for details), a read of the MSR after reset can be
performed to prevent unwanted interrupts.

Important: The value of a reserved bit must be maintained in software. When you modify registers containing reserved bit fields, you must use a read-modify-write operation to preserve state and prevent indeterminate system behavior.

| 7 | DCD |
Data Carrier Detect. This is used to indicate the current state of the modem control line dcd_n. That is this bit is the complement dcd_n. When the Data Carrier Detect input (dcd_n) is asserted it is an indication that the carrier has been detected by the modem or data set. 0 = dcd_n input is de-asserted (logic 1) 1 = dcd_n input is asserted (logic 0) In Loopback Mode (MCR[4] set to one), DCD is the same as MCR[3] (Out2).

RO | 0x0 | ||||||
| 6 | RI |
Ring Indicator. This is used to indicate the current state of the modem control line ri_n. That is this bit is the complement ri_n. When the Ring Indicator input (ri_n) is asserted it is an indication that a telephone ringing signal has been received by the modem or data set. 0 = ri_n input is de-asserted (logic 1) 1 = ri_n input is asserted (logic 0) In Loopback Mode (MCR[4] set to one), RI is the same as MCR[2] (Out1).

RO | 0x0 | ||||||
| 5 | DSR |
Data Set Ready. This is used to indicate the current state of the modem control line dsr_n. That is this bit is the complement dsr_n. When the Data Set Ready input (dsr_n) is asserted it is an indication that the modem or data set is ready to establish communications with the DW_apb_uart. 0 = dsr_n input is de-asserted (logic 1) 1 = dsr_n input is asserted (logic 0) In Loopback Mode (MCR[4] set to one), DSR is the same as MCR[0] (DTR).
|
RO | 0x0 | ||||||
| 4 | CTS |
Clear to Send. This is used to indicate the current state of the modem control line cts_n. That is, this bit is the complement cts_n. When the Clear to Send input (cts_n) is asserted it is an indication that the modem or data set is ready to exchange data with the DW_apb_uart. 0 = cts_n input is de-asserted (logic 1) 1 = cts_n input is asserted (logic 0) In Loopback Mode (MCR[4] set to one), CTS is the same as MCR[1] (RTS).
|
RO | 0x0 | ||||||
| 3 | DDCD |
Delta Data Carrier Detect. This is used to indicate that the modem control line dcd_n has changed since the last time the MSR was read. That is: 0 = no change on dcd_n since last read of MSR 1 = change on dcd_n since last read of MSR Reading the MSR clears the DDCD bit. In Loopback Mode (MCR[4] set to one), DDCD reflects changes on MCR[3] (Out2). Note, if the DDCD bit is not set and the dcd_n signal is asserted (low) and a reset occurs (software or otherwise), then the DDCD bit will get set when the reset is removed if the dcd_n signal remains asserted.
|
RO | 0x0 | ||||||
| 2 | TERI |
Trailing Edge of Ring Indicator. This is used to indicate that a change on the input ri_n (from an active low, to an inactive high state) has occurred since the last time the MSR was read. That is: 0 = no change on ri_n since last read of MSR 1 = change on ri_n since last read of MSR Reading the MSR clears the TERI bit. In Loopback Mode (MCR[4] set to one), TERI reflects when MCR[2] (Out1) has changed state from a high to a low.

RO | 0x0 | ||||||
| 1 | DDSR |
Delta Data Set Ready. This is used to indicate that the modem control line dsr_n has changed since the last time the MSR was read. That is: 0 = no change on dsr_n since last read of MSR 1 = change on dsr_n since last read of MSR Reading the MSR clears the DDSR bit. In Loopback Mode (MCR[4] set to one), DDSR reflects changes on MCR[0] (DTR). Note, if the DDSR bit is not set and the dsr_n signal is asserted (low) and a reset occurs (software or otherwise), then the DDSR bit will get set when the reset is removed if the dsr_n signal remains asserted.

RO | 0x0 | ||||||
| 0 | DCTS |
Delta Clear to Send. This is used to indicate that the modem control line cts_n has changed since the last time the MSR was read. That is: 0 = no change on cts_n since last read of MSR 1 = change on cts_n since last read of MSR Reading the MSR clears the DCTS bit. In Loopback Mode (MCR[4] set to one), DCTS reflects changes on MCR[1] (RTS). Note, if the DCTS bit is not set and the cts_n signal is asserted (low) and a reset occurs (software or otherwise), then the DCTS bit will get set when the reset is removed if the cts_n signal remains asserted.
