4.1.2.4. Empty-cycle CW

Figure 14. Empty-cycle CW Format

When you deassert tx_avs_valid for two clock cycles during a burst, the MAC inserts an EMPTY_CYC CW paired with END/START CWs. You can use this CW when there is no data available for transmission momentarily.

When you deassert tx_avs_valid for one cycle, the IP deasserts tx_avs_valid for twice the period of tx_avs_valid deassertion to generate a pair of END/START CWs.
