8.7.2.6 Microwire Transmit Data Size (MWDS)
Use the Microwire transmit data size (MWDS) bit to select the 8- or 16-bit size for command wor d
transmissions in the National Microwire frame format. When MW DS=0 , 8-bit c om mand wor ds ar e
transmitted. When MWDS=1, 16-bit command words are transmitted. Th e MWD S s e tting is
ignored for all other frame formats.
8.7.2.7 Transmit FIFO Interrupt/DMA Threshold (TFT)
This 4-bit value sets the level at or below which the FIFO controller triggers a DMA service
request and, if enabled, an interrupt reque st. Refer to Table 8-4 for suggested TFT values associated
with DMA servicing.
