19.3.3.1.11 Tx FIFO Control Register (PCITFCR)

Table 19-28. PCITFSR Field Descriptions

Bits Name Description
31 IP Illegal Pointer. An address outside the FIFO controller’s memory range has been written to one of
the user visible pointers. This bit will cause the FIFO error output to assert unless the IP_MASK bit
in the FIFO Controller register is set. Resetting the FIFO will clear this condition and the bit is
cleared by writing a one to it.
30 TXW Transmit Wait Condition. Since the Transmit Controller waits for enough data in the FIFO to satisfy
each PCI transaction before the transfer initiates, this bit will not assert.
29–24 Reserved, should be cleared.
23 FAE Frame accept error. This module does not support data framing functionality, so this bit should be
ignored.
22 RXW Receive wait condition. Since this FIFO is configured as a Transmit FIFO (i.e. the PCI controller
only reads from this FIFO), this bit will not assert.
21 UF Underflow. This bit indicates that the read pointer has surpassed the write pointer. In other words
the FIFO has been read beyond Empty. Resetting the FIFO will clear this condition and the bit is
cleared by writing a one to it.
20 OF Overflow. This bit indicates that the write pointer has surpassed the read pointer. In other words
the FIFO has been written beyond Full. Resetting the FIFO will clear this condition and the bit is
cleared by writing a one to it.
19 FR Frame ready. The FIFO has a complete Frame of data ready for transmission. This module does
not provide support for data framing functionality, so this bit should be ignored.
18 Full The FIFO is Full. This is not a sticky bit or error condition. The Full indication tracks with the state
of the FIFO.
17 Alarm The FIFO is at or above the Alarm “watermark”, as set by the user according to the Alarm and
Control registers settings. This is not a sticky bit or error indication.
16 Empty The FIFO is empty. This is not a sticky bit or error condition.
15–0 Reserved, should be cleared.
