FEC Frame Transmission
When the FEC receiver is enabled by setting ECR[ETHER_EN] and RDAR[24] it
immediately starts processing receive frames. Received frame processing proceeds as
follows:
As soon as a collision window (512 bits) of data is received, and if address recognition has
not rejected the frame, the FEC starts transferring the incoming frame to the receive buffer
descriptor’s (RxBD’s) associated data buffer. If the frame is a runt (due to collision) or is
rejected by address recognition, no receive buffers are filled. Thus, no collision frames are
presented to the user except late collisions, which indicate serious LAN problems. When
the data buffer has been filled, the FEC clears RxBD[E] and generates an RXB interrupt (if
RBIEN is asserted in EIMR register). If the incoming frame exceeds the length of the data
buffer, the FEC fetches the next RxBD in the table and, if it is empty, continues transferring
the rest of the frame to this BD’s associated data buffer.
The RxBD length is determined in the R_BUFF_SIZE value in the EMRBR register. The
user should program R_BUFF_SIZE to be at least 128 bytes. R_BUFF_SIZE must be
quad-word (16-byte) aligned.
During reception, the FEC checks for a frame that is either too short or too long. When the
frame ends (carrier sense is negated), the receive CRC field is checked and written to the
data buffer. The data length written to the last BD in the Ethernet frame is the length of the
entire frame. Frames shorter than 64 bytes are discarded automatically with no system bus
impact.
When the receive frame is complete, the FEC sets RxBD[L], writes the other frame status
bits into the RxBD and clears RxBD[E]. The FEC next generates a maskable interrupt
