5.2.3 Receive Frame Pre-Processing
The CS8900A pre-processes all receive frames us-
ing a four step process:
1) Destination Address filtering;
2) Early Interrupt Generation;
3) Acceptance filtering; and,
4) Normal Interrupt Generation.
Figure 21 provides a diagram of frame pre-process-
ing.
5.2.3.1 Destination Address Filtering
All incoming frames are passed through the Desti-
nation Address filter (DA filter). If the frame’s DA
passes the DA filter, the frame is passed on for fur-
ther pre-processing. If it fails the DA filter, the
frame is discarded. See Section 5.3 on page 87 for
a more detailed description of DA filtering.

When set, DMA operations
hold the bus for up to approx-
imately 28 µs. When clear,
DMA operations are continu-
ous.
When set, DMA buffer size is
64 Kbytes. When clear, DMA
buffer size is 16 Kbytes.
