Freescale Semiconductor 25-21

Figure 25-10 shows an example of interrupts that can be generated in Ethernet protocol.

Figure 25-10. Ethernet Interrupt Events Example

Note that the SCC status register (SCCS) cannot be used with the Ethernet protocol. The current state of the RENA and CLSN signals can be found in the parallel I/O ports.

14 TXB Tx buffer. Set when a buffer has been sent on the Ethernet channel.

15 RXB Rx buffer. Set when a buffer that was not a complete frame was received on the Ethernet channel.

NOTES
:
Ethernet SCCE
Events
1. RXB event assumes receive buffers are 64 bytes each.
2. The RENA events, if required, must be programmed in the parallel I/O ports, not in the SCC itself.
3. The RxF interrupt may occur later than RENA due to receive FIFO latency.
NOTES:
Ethernet SCCE
Events
1. TXB events assume the frame required two transmit buffers.
2. The GRA event assumes a
GRACEFUL
STOP
TRANSMIT
command was issued during frame transmission.

3. The TENA or CLSN events, if required, must be programmed in the parallel I/O ports, not in the SCC itself.
