DMA Status Registers (UART0TXSTAT,
UART0RXSTAT)
These read-only registers (described in Table A-134 and Table A-135)
provide DMA status information.
Table A-133. UART0RXCTL Register Descriptions (RW)
Bit Name Description
0UARTENReceive Buffer Enable.
0 = Clears the receive buffer
1 = Enables the receive buffer (this bit needs to be enabled
regardless of core or DMA access)
1 UARTDEN DMA Enable.
0 = Disables DMA
1 = Enables DMA on the specified channel
2 UARTCHEN Chain Pointer DMA Enable.
0 = Disable chained DMA
1 = Enable chained DMA on the specified channel
Table A-134. UART0TXSTAT Register Bit Descriptions (RO)
Bit Name Description
0 Reserved
1 UARTDMASTAT DMA Status. Provides DMA status.
0 = TX DMA is inactive
1 = TX DMA is active
2 UARTCHSTAT DMA Chaining Status. Provides DMA chaining status.
0 = TX DMA chain loading is inactive
