TX Buffer Format
TX buffers exist in the host’s memory in a given format. The host writes a TX command word into the
TX data buffer before moving the Ethernet packet data. The TX command A and command B are 32-
bit values that are used by the LAN9218 in the handling and processing of the associated Ethernet
packet data buffer. Buffer alignment, segmentation and other packet processing parameters are
included in the command structure. The following diagram illustrates the buffer format.
