Description

 

 

 

 

 

D26

R/W*

RXFOFIP

0x0

RX FIFO overflow interrupt pending

 

 

 

 

Set when the RX FIFO finds an overflow

 

 

 

 

condition.

 

 

 

 

 

D25

R/W*

RXFSRIP

0x0

RX FIFO service request interrupt pending

 

 

 

 

(RX)

 

 

 

 

Set when the RX FIFO level rises above the

 

 

 

 

receive FIFO threshold (in the RX Interrupt

 

 

 

 

Configuration register).

 

 

 

 

 

D24

R/W*

TXNCIP

0x0

Normal completion interrupt pending (TX)

 

 

 

 

Set when a buffer is closed under normal

 

 

 

 

conditions. An interrupt is generated when the I bit

 

 

 

 

is set in the current buffer descriptor.

 

 

 

 

A normal DMA completion occurs when the

 

 

 

 

buffer length field expires.

 

 

 

 

 

D23

R/W*

TXECIP

0x0

Error completion interrupt pending (TX)

 

 

 

 

Set when the DMA channel finds either a bad

 

 

 

 

buffer descriptor or a bad data buffer pointer.

 

 

 

 

The DMA channel remains in the ERROR state

 

 

 

 

until the CE bit in the DMA Control register is

 

 

 

 

cleared and then set again. The DMA channel then

 

 

 

 

uses the buffer descriptor as set in the index

 

 

 

 

control field.

 

 

 

 

 

D22

R/W*

TXNRIP

0x0

Buffer not ready interrupt pending (TX)

 

 

 

 

Set when the DMA channel finds a buffer

 

 

 

 

descriptor with the F bit not set.

 

 

 

 

The DMA channel remains in the ERROR state

 

 

 

 

until the CE bit in the DMA Control register is

 

 

 

 

cleared and then set again. The DMA channel then

 

 

 

 

uses the buffer descriptor as set in the index

 

 

 

 

control field.

 

 

 

 

 

D21

R/W*

TXCAIP

0x0

Channel abort interrupt pending (TX)

 

 

 

 

Set when the DMA channel finds the channel

 

 

 

 

abort (CA) control bit set.

 

 

 

 

The DMA controller closes the current buffer

 

 

 

 

descriptor and remains in the IDLE state until the

 

 

 

 

CA bit is cleared and the CE bit is set.

 

 

 

 

 

D20

R/W*

TXFUFIP

0x0

TX FIFO underflow interrupt pending

 

 

 

 

Set when the TX FIFO finds an underflow.

 

 

 

 

 

D19

R/W*

TXFSRIP

0x0

TX FIFO service request interrupt pending

 

 

 

 

(TX)

Set when the TX FIFO level drops below the transmit FIFO threshold (in the TX Interrupt Configuration register).
