3.8.4.2
The transmission of transparent frames (XTF command) is shown in
Figure 78
.
For transparent frames, the whole frame including address and control field must be
written to the XFIFOx. The host configures whether the CRC is generated and appended
to the frame (default) or not (selected in EXMx.XCRC).
Further, the host selects the interframe time fill signal which is transmitted between
HDCL frames (EXMx.ITF). One option is to send continuous flags (’01111110’), however
if D-channel access handling (collision resolution on the S bus) is required, the signal
must be set to idle (continuous ’1’s are transmitted). Reprogramming of ITF takes effect
only after the transmission of the current frame has been completed or after an XRES
command.

3.8.5
By setting the enable HDLC data bits (EN_D, EN_B1H, EN_B2H) in the DCI_CR register
(D-channel) and in the BCH_CR register (B-channel) the HDLC controller can access
the D, B1 and B2 channels or any combination of them. In all modes (except extended
transparent mode) transmission always works frame aligned, i.e. it starts with the first
selected channel, whereas reception searches for a flag anywhere in the serial data
stream.
Access to IOM-2 Channels
3.8.6
This non-HDLC mode is selected by setting MODE2...0 to ’100’. In extended transparent
mode fully transparent data transmission/reception without HDLC framing is performed
i.e. without FLAG generation/recognition, CRC generation/check, bitstuffing mechanism.
This allows user specific protocol variations.
