XON/XOFF control:
•
When the data in the receive buffer exceeds 75% of
the buffer, XOFF(13H) is sent and the controller is
notified that there is not much space remaining in the
buffer.
•
Processing of the data in the buffer continues, and
then XON(11H) is sent and the controller is notified
that there is sufficient remaining space in the buffer
when the amount of data becomes less than 25%.
XON/XOFF control:
•
When XOFF is received, the sending of data is halted. When XON is received, the sending of data is
resumed.
