4.1.2.2. End-of-burst CW

Figure 12. End-of-burst CW Format

The MAC inserts the END CW when the tx_avs_endofpacket is asserted. The END CW contains the number of valid bytes at the last data word and the CRC information.

The CRC value is a 32-bit CRC result for the data between the START CW and the data word before the END CW.

The following table shows the values of the fields in END CW.

Table 13.   END CW Field Values
Field Value
eop 1
CRC32 CRC32 computed value.
num_valid_bytes_eob Number of valid bytes at the last data word.
