Ethernet Media Access Controller (EMAC) Registers
5.46 Transmit Channel 0-7 DMA Head Descriptor Pointer Register (TXnHDP)
The transmit channel 0-7 DMA head descriptor pointer register (TXnHDP) is shown in
Figure 85
and
described in
Table 83
.

Description
31-0
TXnHDP
0-FFFF FFFFh
Transmit channel n DMA Head Descriptor pointer. Writing a transmit DMA buffer descriptor
address to a head pointer location initiates transmit DMA operations in the queue for the
selected channel. Writing to these locations when they are nonzero is an error (except at reset).
Host software must initialize these locations to 0 on reset.
5.47 Receive Channel 0-7 DMA Head Descriptor Pointer Register (RXnHDP)
The receive channel 0-7 DMA head descriptor pointer register (RXnHDP) is shown in
Figure 86
and
described in
Table 84

RXnHDP
0-FFFF FFFFh
Receive channel n DMA Head Descriptor pointer. Writing a receive DMA buffer descriptor
address to this location allows receive DMA operations in the selected channel when a channel
frame is received. Writing to these locations when they are nonzero is an error (except at reset).
Host software must initialize these locations to 0 on reset.
