4 0 SONIC-16 Registers
4 3 4 Transmit Control Register
(RA
This register is used to program the SONIC-16’s transmit actions and provide status information after a packet has been
transmitted (Figure 4-7) At the beginning of transmission bits 15 14 13 and 12 from the TXpkt config field are loaded into the
TCR to configure the various transmit modes (see section 3 5 1 1) When the transmission ends bits 10– 0 indicate status
information and are set to a ‘‘1’’ when the corresponding condition is true These bits along with the number of collisions
information are written into the TXpkt status field at the end of transmission (see section 3 5 1 2) Bits 9 and 5 are cleared after
the TXpkt status field has been written Bits 10 7 6 and 1 are cleared at the commencement of the next transmission while bit 8
is set at this time
A hardware reset sets bits 8 and 1 to a ‘‘1’’ This register is unaffected by a software reset

PINTR PROGRAMMABLE INTERRUPT
This bit allows transmit interrupts to be generated under software control The SONIC-16 will issue an interrupt (PINT
in the Interrupt Status Register) immediately after reading a TDA and detecting that PINTR is set in the TXpkt config
field
Note In order for PINTR to operate properly it must be set and reset in the TXpkt config field by alternating TDAs This is necessary because after
PINT has been issued in the ISR PINTR in the Transmit Control Register must be cleared before it is set again in order to have the interrupt issued
for another packet The only effective way to do this is to set PINTR to a 1 no more often than every other packet
POWC PROGRAM ‘‘OUT OF WINDOW COLLISION’’ TIMER
This bit programs when the out of window collision timer begins
0 timer begins after the Start of Frame Delimiter (SFD)
1 timer begins after the first bit of preamble
CRCI CRC INHIBIT
0 transmit packet with 4-byte FCS field
1 transmit packet without 4-byte FCS field
EXDIS DISABLE EXCESSIVE DEFERRAL TIMER
0 excessive deferral timer enabled
1 excessive deferral timer disabled
Must be 0
EXD EXCESSIVE DEFERRAL
Indicates that the SONIC-16 has been deferring for 3 2 ms The transmission is aborted if the excessive deferral
timer is enabled (i e EXDIS is reset) This bit can only be set if the excessive deferral timer is enabled
