TX_FIFO_THRESHOLD[7:0] specifies the LSB of the TX FIFO Threshold which is used by the INFO FIELD TX FIFO Controller to determine when it starts to read the data from the TX FIFO. For frames of which the size is greater than the programmed TX_FIFO_THRESHOLD, the INFO FIELD TX FIFO Controller begins to read data out of the TX FIFO when the number of bytes of the portion of the transmitting frame that has been stored into the TX FIFO is equal to or greater than the programmed TX_FIFO_THRESHOLD. The default value is set to 648 bytes (0x0288). When Rate Adaptation is used, the threshold value can be lowered.

This register is only used in LAPS mode. In GFP mode transmission starts only when a complete frame is in the FIFO.
