2.8.11.4. External Flow Control (When RX FIFO Size is 0)

The SerialLite II IP core supports an external flow control when the RX FIFO size is zero.

The rxrdp_dav and rxhpp_dav input signals are provided to activate flow control to pause the data transmission when the corresponding regular port or priority data port is selected. Drive rxrdp_dav low when the fill level of your external FIFO has been breached. This action triggers the flow control pause request. When this signal is high, no flow control requests is generated.
