7.2.1
Assuming that the receive buffer has been initialized,
the MAC has been properly configured and the receive
filters have been configured to receive Ethernet
packets, the host controller should:
1.
2.
3.
After setting RXEN, the Duplex mode and the Receive
Buffer Start and End Pointers should not be modified.
Additionally, to prevent unexpected packets from arriv-
ing, it is recommended that RXEN be cleared before
altering the receive filter configuration (ERXFCON) and
MAC address.

If an interrupt is desired whenever a packet is
received, set EIE.PKTIE and EIE.INTIE.
If an interrupt is desired whenever a packet is
dropped due to insufficient buffer space, clear
EIR.RXERIF and set both EIE.RXERIE and
EIE.INTIE
Enable reception by setting ECON1.RXEN.

After reception is enabled, packets which are not
filtered out will be written into the circular receive buffer.
Any packet which does not meet the necessary filter
criteria will be discarded and the host controller will not
have any means of identifying that a packet was thrown
away. When a packet is accepted and completely
written into the buffer, the EPKTCNT register will incre-
ment, the EIR.PKTIF bit will be set, an interrupt will be
generated (if enabled) and the Hardware Write Pointer,
ERXWRPT, will automatically advance.
7.2.2
Figure 7-3 shows the layout of a received packet. The
packets are preceded by a six-byte header which
contains a Next Packet Pointer, in addition to a receive
status vector which contains receive statistics, includ-
ing the packet’s size. This receive status vector is
shown in Table 7-3.
If the last byte in the packet ends on an odd value
address, the hardware will automatically add a padding
byte when advancing the Hardware Write Pointer. As
such, all packets will start on an even boundary.
