Figure 29-24. Example of a 1024-Entry Receive Connection Table

The general formula for determining the real starting address for all internal and external
connection table entries is as follows:

connection table base address + (channel code

´ 32)

Thus, the real starting address of the RCT entry associated with channel code 3 is as
follows:

INT_RCT_BASE+ (3

´ 32) = INT_RCT_BASE + 96

Even though it produces a gap in the connection table, the Þrst external channelÕs real
starting address of the RCT entry (channel code 256) is as follows:

EXT_RCT_BASE+ (256

´ 32) = EXT_RCT_BASE + 8192

See Section 29.10.1, ÒParameter RAM,Ó to Þnd all the connection table base address
parameters. (The transmit connections table base address parameters are INT_TCT_BASE,
EXT_TCT_BASE, INT_TCTE_BASE, and EXT_TCTE_BASE.)
