22.3.3 FIFO Information
The transmit FIFO buffer-available register indicates the number of bytes that can be written into the
transmit FIFO. The count from this register informs the host as to how many bytes can be written into the
transmit FIFO without overflowing the buffer.
Register Name: H1TFBA, H2TFBA
Register Description: HDLC # 1 Transmit FIFO Buffer Available
HDLC # 2 Transmit FIFO Buffer Available
Register Address: 9Fh, Afh
Bit # 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
Name TFBA7 TFBA6 TFBA5 TFBA4 TFBA3 TFBA2 TFBA1 TFBA0
Default 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Bits 0 to 7/Transmit FIFO Bytes Available (TFBAO to TFBA7). TFBA0 is the LSB.
22.3.4 Receive Packet Bytes Available
The lower 7 bits of the receive packet bytes available register indicate the number of bytes (0 through
127) that can be read from the receive FIFO. The value indicated by this register (lower 7 bits) informs
the host as to how many bytes can be read from the receive FIFO without going past the end of a
message. This value will refer to one of four possibilities: the first part of a packet, the continuation of a
packet, the last part of a packet, or a complete packet. After reading the number of bytes indicated by this
register, the host then checks the HDLC information register for detailed message status.
If the value in the HxRPBA register refers to the beginning portion of a message or continuation of a
message then the MSB of the HxRPBA register will return a value of 1. This indicates that the host can
safely read the number of bytes returned by the lower 7 bits of the HxRPBA register but there is no need
to check the information register since the packet has not yet terminated (successfully or otherwise).
Register Name: H1RPBA, H2RPBA
Register Description: HDLC # 1 Receive Packet Bytes Available
HDLC # 2 Receive Packet Bytes Available
Register Address: 9Ch, Ach
Bit # 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
Name MS RPBA6 RPBA5 RPBA4 RPBA3 RPBA2
RPBA1 RPBA0
Default 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Bits 0 to 6/Receive FIFO Packet Bytes Available Count (RPBA0 to RPBA6). RPBA0 is the LSB.
Bit 7/Message Status (MS).
0 = bytes indicated by RPBA0 through RPBA6 are the end of a message. Host must check the INFO5 or INFO6
register for details.
1 = bytes indicated by RPBA0 through RPBA6 are the beginning or continuation of a message. The host does not
need to check the INFO5 or INFO6 register.
