Core
Software can read the registers at offsets 04h, 05h and 06h simultaneously by performing a single,
32-bit read from address offset 04h. Software can also read this register individually by doing a
single, 16-bit read to offset 06h. Reads across DWord boundaries are not supported.
Bit
Description
15:5 Reserved
FIFO Error (FIFOE) — R/WC.
0 = Cleared by writing a 1 to this bit position.
1 = FIFO error occurs.
• Modem in: FIFO error indicates a FIFO overrun. The FIFO pointers don't increment, the
4
incoming data is not written into the FIFO, thereby being lost.
• Modem out: FIFO error indicates a FIFO underrun. The sample transmitted in this case
should be the last valid sample.
The ICH4 will set the FIFOE bit if the under-run or overrun occurs when there are more valid buffers
to process.
Buffer Completion Interrupt Status (BCIS) — R/WC.
0 = Cleared by writing a 1 to this bit position.
3
1 = Set by the hardware after the last sample of a buffer has been processed, AND if the Interrupt
on Completion (IOC) bit is set in the command byte of the buffer descriptor. Remains active
until software clears bit.
Last Valid Buffer Completion Interrupt (LVBCI) — R/WC.
0 = Cleared by writing a 1 to this bit position
1 = Set by hardware when last valid buffer has been processed. It remains active until cleared by
software. This bit indicates the occurrence of the event signified by the last valid buffer being
processed. Thus, this is an event status bit that can be cleared by software once this event
2
has been recognized. This event will cause an interrupt if the enable bit in the Control Register
is set. The interrupt is cleared when the software clears this bit.
In the case of transmits (PCM out, Modem out) this bit is set, after the last valid buffer has
been fetched (not after transmitting it). While in the case of Receives, this bit is set after the
data for the last buffer has been written to memory.
Current Equals Last Valid (CELV) — RO.
0 = Hardware clears when controller exists state (i.e., until a new value is written to the LVI
register).
1
1 = Current Index is equal to the value in the Last Valid Index Register, AND the buffer pointed to
by the CIV has been processed (i.e., after the last valid buffer has been processed). This bit is
very similar to bit 2, except, this bit reflects the state rather than the event. This bit reflects the
state of the controller, and remains set until the controller exits this state.
DMA Controller Halted (DCH)— RO.
0
0 = Running.
1 = Halted. This could happen because of the Start/Stop bit being cleared and the DMA engines
are idle, or it could happen once the controller has processed the last valid buffer.
