TX Length Byte1 Register (0x1D) and TX Length Byte2 Register (0x1E)

Table 6-38 describes the bit fields of the TX Length Byte1 register. This register contains the high two nibbles of complete intended bytes to be transferred through FIFO.

Default Value: 0x00, set at POR and EN = 0. The register is also automatically reset at TX EOF.

Table 6-38 TX Length Byte1 Register (0x1D)

BIT NO. BIT NAME FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
B7 Txl11 Number of complete byte bn[11] High nibble of complete intended bytes to be transmitted
B6 Txl10 Number of complete byte bn[10]
B5 Txl9 Number of complete byte bn[9]
B4 Txl8 Number of complete byte bn[8]
B3 Txl7 Number of complete byte bn[7] Middle nibble of complete intended bytes to be transmitted
B2 Txl6 Number of complete byte bn[6]
B1 Txl5 Number of complete byte bn[5]
B0 Txl4 Number of complete byte bn[4]

Table 6-39 describes the bit fields of the TX Length Byte2 register. This register contains the low nibble of the complete bytes to be transferred through FIFO, and information about a broken byte and number of bits to be transferred from it.

Default Value: 0x00, set at POR and EN = 0. The register is also automatically reset at TX EOF.

Table 6-39 TX Length Byte2 Register (0x1E)

BIT NO. BIT NAME FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
B7 Txl3 Number of complete byte bn[3] Low nibble of complete intended bytes to be transmitted
B6 Txl2 Number of complete byte bn[2]
B5 Txl1 Number of complete byte bn[1]
B4 Txl0 Number of complete byte bn[0]
B3 Bb2 Broken byte number of bits bb[2] Number of bits in the last broken byte to be transmitted.

This value is taken into account only when broken byte flag is set.

B2 Bb1 Broken byte number of bits bb[1]
B1 Bb0 Broken byte number of bits bb[0]
B0 Bbf Broken byte flag B0 = 1 indicates that last byte is not complete 8 bits wide.
