MEMORY RESERVED FOR TRANSMIT - Programming this value allows the host CPU to reserve memory to be used later for transmit, limiting the amount of memory that receive packets can use up.
When programmed for zero, the memory allocation between transmit and receive is completely dynamic.
When programmed for a
This register defaults to zero upon reset. It is not affected by the RESET MMU command.
The value written to the MCR is a reserved memory space IN ADDITION TO ANY MEMORY CURRENTLY IN USE. If the memory allocated for transmit plus the reserved space for transmit is required to be constant (rather than grow with transmit allocations) the CPU should update the value of this register after allocating or releasing memory.
The contents of MIR as well as the low byte of MCR are specified in 256 * M bytes. The multiplier M is determined by bits 11,10, and 9 as follows. Bits 11,10 and 9 are read only bits used by the software driver to transparently run on different controllers of the SMC9000 family.
