Communication Phases
The Mailbox 2.0 mechanism defines two communication phases:
•
Synchronization
•
Data exchange
Only after successful synchronization from sender to receiver the actual user data
can be exchanged.
10.1.3.1
Synchronization
In the synchronization phase, the handshake byte is used in Control mode.
A distinction is made between interpretation as signaling mode and interpretation
as command acknowledgement mode.
In command acknowledgement mode, the handshake byte appears as follows:
Status Nibble
Bit 3
0
The Control nibble is used to transfer a request while the Status nibble contains
the response to the request.
