Allowable settings for Configurable FIFO Memory Allocation
TX and RX FIFO space is configurable through the CSR - HW_CFG register defined above. The user
must select the FIFO allocation by setting the TX FIFO Size (TX_FIF_SZ) field in the hardware
configuration (HW_CFG) register. The TX_FIF_SZ field selects the total allocation for the TX data path,
including the TX Status FIFO size. The TX Status FIFO size is fixed at 512 Bytes (128 TX Status
DWORDs). The TX Status FIFO length is subtracted from the total TX FIFO size with the remainder
being the TX data FIFO Size. Note that TX data FIFO space includes both commands and payload
data.
RX FIFO Size is the remainder of the unallocated FIFO space (16384 bytes – TX FIFO Size). The RX
Status FIFO size is always equal to 1/16 of the RX FIFO Size. The RX Status FIFO length is subtracted
from the total RX FIFO size with the remainder being the RX data FIFO Size.
For example, if TX_FIF_SZ = 6 then:
Total TX FIFO Size = 6144 Bytes (6KB)
TX Status FIFO Size = 512 Bytes (Fixed)
TX Data FIFO Size = 6144 – 512 = 5632 Bytes
RX FIFO Size = 16384 – 6144 = 10240 Bytes (10KB)
RX Status FIFO Size = 10240 / 16 = 640 Bytes (160 RX Status DWORDs)
RX Data FIFO Size = 10240 – 640 = 9600 Bytes

Note: The RX data FIFO is considered full 4 DWORDs before the length that is specified in the
HW_CFG register.
