DATASHEET
9.8.6.2 TX Example 2
In this example, a single 183-Byte Ethernet packet will be transmitted. This packet is in a single buffer
as follows:
„ 2-Byte “Data Start Offset”
„ 183-Bytes of payload data
„ 4-Byte “Buffer End Alignment”
Figure 9.6 illustrates the TX command structure for this example, and also shows how data is passed
to the TX Data FIFO. Note that the packet resides in a single TX Buffer, therefore both the FS and LS
bits are set in TX command ‘A’.
