McASP Registers
22.4.1.46 Read FIFO Control Register (RFIFOCTL)
The Read FIFO control register (RFIFOCTL) is shown in
and described in
NOTE:
The RNUMEVT and RNUMDMA values must be set prior to enabling the Read FIFO.
If the Read FIFO is to be enabled, it must be enabled prior to taking the McASP out of reset.

RENA
Read FIFO enable bit.
0
Read FIFO is disabled. The RLVL bit in the Read FIFO status register (RFIFOSTS) is reset to 0
and pointers are initialized, that is, the Read FIFO is “flushed.”
1
Read FIFO is enabled. If Read FIFO is to be enabled, it must be enabled prior to taking McASP
out of reset.
15-8
RNUMEVT
0-FFh
Read word count per DMA event (32-bit). When the Read FIFO contains at least RNUMEVT
words of data, then an AREVT (receive DMA event) is generated to the host/DMA controller. This
value should be set to a non-zero integer multiple of the number of serializers enabled as
receivers. This value must be set prior to enabling the Read FIFO.

RNUMDMA
0-FFh
Read word count per transfer (32-bit words). Upon a receive DMA event from the McASP, the
Read FIFO reads RNUMDMA words from the McASP. This value must equal the number of
McASP serializers used as receivers. This value must be set prior to enabling the Read FIFO.
