3.1.2 Special Rx FIFO Data Unloading at locations 0x180, 0x380, 0x580, and 0x780
The XR17C154 also provides the same RX FIFO data along with the LSR status information of each byte side-
by-side, at locations 0x180 (channel 0), 0x380 (channel 1), 0x580 (channel 2), and 0x780 (channel 3). The
entire RX data along with the status can be downloaded in a single PCI Burst Read operation of 32 DWORD
reads. The Status and Data bytes must be read in 16 or 32 bits format to maintain data integrity. The following
tables show this clearly.

3.1.3 Tx FIFO Data Loading at locations 0x100, 0x300, 0x500, 0x700
The TX FIFO data (up to the maximum 64 bytes) can be loaded in a single burst 32-bit write operation
(maximum 16 DWORD writes) at memory locations 0x100 (channel 0), 0x300 (channel 1), 0x500 (channel 2),
and 0x700 (channel 3).
