10
UF
UnderFlow—flag indicates read pointer has surpassed the write pointer. FIFO was read 
beyond empty. Resetting FIFO clears this condition; writing 1 to this bit clears flag.
11
OF
OverFlow—flag indicates write pointer surpassed read pointer. FIFO was written beyond full. 
Resetting FIFO clears this condition; writing 1 to this bit clears flag.
12
Full
FIFO full—this is NOT a sticky bit or error condition. Full indication tracks with FIFO state.
13
HI
High—FIFO requests attention, because high level alarm is asserted. To clear this condition, 
FIFO must be read to a level below the setting in granularity bits.
14
LO
Low—FIFO requests attention, because Low level alarm is asserted. To clear this condition, 
FIFO must be written to a level in which the space remaining is less than the granularity bit 
setting.
15
Emty
FIFO empty—this is NOT a sticky bit or error condition. Full indication tracks with FIFO state.

GR
Granularity—bits control high “watermark” point at which FIFO negates Alarm condition (i.e., 
request for data). It represents the number of free bytes times 4.
000 = FIFO waits to become completely full before stopping data request.
001 = FIFO stops data request when only one long word of space remains.
