I am working on implementing the MC6850 ACIA for academic purposes. The implementation requires that when data is written to the data register, the empty flag is set to zero and when the data is read from the register, it is set to 1 (to indicate empty).
The reading and writing are 2 different processes and I am not allowed to modify this same empty bit by 2 different processes. I am not sure how exactly to set this bit properly. Would somebody here be able to provide any advice? I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you,
