ADDR = 0x1C6: Low Inter-Frame-Gap Water Mark
Bits 7-0: LO_IFG_WATER_MARK[7:0] is the LSB of the Low Inter-Frame-Gap Water Mark which is
used by the INFO FIELD RX FIFO Controller to determine when to change the IFG Selection Mode
(IFG_SEL) for the MII RX interface from Low-IFG to Normal-IFG. The IFG Selection Mode is used
to control the minimum number of MII clock cycles between consecutive MAC frames sent out on
the MII RX bus from the HDMP-3001 chip. When the number of bytes in the RX FIFO becomes
greater than or equal to the High Inter-Frame-Gap Water Mark, the IFG_SEL is set to one for Low-
IFG. When the number of bytes in the RX FIFO becomes less than or equal to the Low Inter-
Frame-Gap Water Mark, the IFG_SEL is set to zero for Normal-IFG. At power-up, the IFG_SEL
defaults to zero for Normal-IFG selection. This value remains zero until the number of bytes in the
RX FIFO becomes greater than or equal to the programmable High Inter-Frame-Gap Water Mark.
The IFG selection process continues as described above. The default value of
LO_IFG_WATER_MARK is 512 bytes (0x0200).
