PRI The Transmit Priority Code field holds the
software-defined transmit priority code for the
message buffer.
DLC The Data Length Code field determines the
number of data bytes within a received/trans-
mitted frame. For transmission, these bits
need to be set according to the number of
data bytes to be transmitted. For reception,
these bits indicate the number of valid re-
ceived data bytes available in the message
buffer. Table 53 shows the possible bit combi-
nations for DLC3:0 for data lengths from 0 to
8 bytes.
Note: The maximum number of data bytes received/trans-
mitted is 8, even if the DLC field is set to a value greater than
8. Therefore, if the data length code is greater or equal to
eight bytes, the DLC field is ignored.
19.10.2 Storage of Standard Messages
During the processing of standard frames, the Extended-
Identifier (IDE) bit is clear. The ID1[3:0] and ID0[15:0] bits
are “don’t care” bits. A standard frame with eight data bytes
is shown in Table54.
IDE The Identifier Extension bit determines wheth-
er the message is a standard frame or an ex-
tended frame.
0 – Message is a standard frame using 11
identifier bits.
1 – Message is an extended frame.
RTR The Remote Transmission Request bit indi-
cates whether the message is a data frame or
a remote frame.
0 – Message is a data frame.
1 – Message is a remote frame.
ID The ID field is used for the 11 standard frame
identifier bits.
