The DS33Z41 will encode the MAC Frame with the LAPS encapsulation on a complete serial stream if configured
for X.86 mode in the register

LI.TX86E

. The DS33Z41 provides the following functions:

• Control Registers for Address, SAPI, Destination Address, Source Address.

• 32 bit FCS enabled.

• Programmable X

43

+1 scrambling.

The sequence of processing performed by the receiver is as follows:

• Programmable octets X

43

+1 descrambling.

• Detect the Start Flag (7E).

• Remove Rate adaptation octets 7d, dd.

• Perform transparency-processing 7d, 5e is converted to 7e and 7d, 5d is converted to 7d.

• Check for a valid Address, Control and SAPI fields (

LI.TRX86A

to

LI.TRX86SAPIL

).

• Perform FCS checking.

• Detect the closing flag.
