Receive Holding Register (RHR)
The receive holding register is an 8-bit register that holds a receive data byte from the receive shift register
(RSR). It provides the receive data interface to the host processor. The host reads the receive data byte on this
register whenever a data byte is transferred from the RSR. The RHR is also part of the receive FIFO of 64
bytes by 11-bit wide, 3 extra bits are for the error tags in LSR. When the FIFO is enabled by FCR bit-0, the
RHR contains the first data character received by the FIFO. After the RHR is read, the next character byte is
loaded into the RHR and the errors associated with the current data byte are immediately updated in the LSR
bits 1-4.

Byte and Errors
RHR Interrupt (ISR bit-2) is programmed at
FIFO trigger level (RXTRG).
FIFO is Enable by FCR bit-0=1
RTS#/DTR# de-asserts when data fills above
the trigger level to suspend remote transmitter.
Enable by EFR bit-6=1, MCR bit-2.
RTS#/DTR# re-asserts when data falls below the
trigger level to restart remote transmitter.
Enable by EFR bit-6=1, MCR bit-2.
