PACEVAL |
| Pacing register current value. A nonzero value in this field indicates that transmit pacing is active. A | |
|
|
| transmit frame collision or deferral causes PACEVAL to be loaded with 1Fh (31); good frame |
|
|
| transmissions (with no collisions or deferrals) cause PACEVAL to be decremented down to 0. |
|
|
| When PACEVAL is nonzero, the transmitter delays four Inter Packet Gaps between new frame |
|
|
| transmissions after each successfully transmitted frame that had no deferrals or collisions. If a |
|
|
| transmit frame is deferred or suffers a collision, the IPG time is not stretched to four times the |
|
|
| normal value. Transmit pacing helps reduce capture effects, which improves overall network |
|
|
| bandwidth. |
