31.4 HDLC Parameter RAM

When an FCC operates in HDLC mode, the protocol-speciÞc area of the FCC parameter
RAM is mapped with the HDLC-speciÞc parameters in Table 31-1.

DISFC, CRCEC, ABTSC, and NMARCÑThese 16-bit (modulo 216) counters are maintained by the CP. The user can
initialize them while the channel is disabled.

CRC constant. For the 16-bit CRC-CCITT, initialize C_MASK to 0x0000_F0B8. For the
32-bit CRC-CCITT, initialize C_MASK to 0xDEBB_20E3.
CRC preset. For the 16-bit CRC-CCITT, initialize C_PRES to 0x0000_FFFF. For the
32-bit CRC-CCITT, initialize C_PRES to 0xFFFF_FFFF.
Discard frame counter. Counts error-free frames discarded due to lack of buffers.
CRC error counter. Counts frames not addressed to the user or frames received in the
BSY condition, but does not include overrun, CD lost, or abort errors.
Abort sequence counter
Nonmatching address Rx counter. Counts nonmatching addresses received (error-free
frames only). See the HMASK and HADDR[1Ð4] parameter description.
Max_length counter. Temporary decrementing counter that tracks frame length.
Max frame length register. If the HDLC controller detects an incoming HDLC frame that
exceeds the user-deÞned value in MFLR, the rest of the frame is discarded and the LG
(Rx frame too long) bit is set in the last BD belonging to that frame. The HDLC controller
waits for the end of the frame and then reports the frame status and length in the last
RxBD. MFLR includes all in-frame bytes between the opening and closing ßags (address,
control, data, and CRC).
Received frames threshold. Used to reduce the interrupt overhead that might otherwise
occur when a series of short HDLC frames arrives, each causing an RXF interrupt. By
programming RFTHR, the user lowers the frequency of RXF interrupts, which occur only
when the RFTHR value is reached. Note that the user should provide enough empty
RxBDs to receive the number of frames speciÞed in RFTHR.
Received frames count. A decrementing counter used to implement this feature. Initialize
this counter with RFTHR.
HMASK and HADDR[1Ð4]. The HDLC controller reads the frame address from the HDLC
receiver, checks it against the four address register values, and masks the result with
HMASK. In HMASK, a 1 represents a bit position for which address comparison should
occur; 0 represents a masked bit position. When addresses match, the address and
subsequent data are written into the buffers. When addresses do not match and the
frame is error-free, the nonmatching address received counter (NMARC) is incremented.
Note that for 8-bit addresses, mask out (clear) the eight high-order bits in HMASK. The
eight low-order bits and HADDRx should contain the address byte that immediately
follows the opening ßag. For example, to recognize a frame that begins 0x7E (ßag), 0x68,
0xAA, using 16-bit address recognition, HADDRx should contain 0xAA68 and HMASK
should contain 0xFFFF. See Figure 31-2.
