NAME
FIFO PORTS REGISTER
TYPE
READ ONLY
SYMBOL
FIFO
This register provides access to the read ports of the Receive FIFO and the Transmit completion FIFO.
The packet numbers to be processed by the interrupt service routines are read from this register.

REMPTY - No receive packets queued in the RX FIFO. For polling purposes, uses the RCV_INT bit
in the Interrupt Status Register.
TOP OF RX FIFO PACKET NUMBER - Packet number presently at the output of the RX FIFO. Only
valid if REMPTY is clear. The packet is removed from the RX FIFO using MMU Commands 3) or 4).
TEMPTY - No transmit packets in completion queue. For polling purposes, uses the TX_INT bit in the
Interrupt Status Register.
TX FIFO PACKET NUMBER - Packet number presently at the output of the TX FIFO. Only valid if
TEMPTY is clear. The packet is removed when a TX INT acknowledge is issued.
Note: For software compatibility with future versions, the value read from each FIFO register is
intended to be written into the PNR as is, without masking higher bits (provided TEMPTY and
REMPTY = 0 respectively).
