In the beginning I thought the same as you but unfortunately LSR is only a status register and IER doesn't have corresponding TEMT bit to enable an interrupt on TEMT triggering. On OMAP instead there is a specific interrupt bound to TEMT LSR flag. And THRE interrupt is not enough because shift register won't be empty when it triggers, so you would loose some bit of last byte to be transmitted. -- Giulio Benetti CTO MICRONOVA SRL Sede: Via A.
