P_CLASS Priority Class. This bit is used during arbitration to the upstream D-channel access. It indi-
cates the number of consecutive ones the NTN has to receive on the upstream S/T D chan-
nel in order to grant D-channel access to the HDLC transmitter.
0: Priority class 2 (data) as defined in ITU-I.430.
1: Priority class 1 (signaling) as defined in ITU-I.430.
Within a class, priority levels are automatically managed.

5—0 TFAE[5:0] HDLC Transmitter FIFO Almost Empty Threshold. The HDLC transmitter will issue an
interrupt (if enabled) when the number of empty bytes in the transmit FIFO exceeds the
threshold level programmed in this register. The interrupt will clear when the interrupt status
register is read. The interrupt will not be asserted again until the number of empty bytes in the
transmit FIFO is equal to or less than the value programmed in TFAE[5:0], and then enough
bytes are transmitted to again cause the FIFO empty level to exceed the TFAE[5:0] value.

HDLC Receiver FIFO Almost Full Threshold. The HDLC receiver will issue an interrupt
(if enabled) when the number of bytes in the receive FIFO exceeds the threshold level
programmed in this register. The interrupt will clear when the interrupt status register is
read. The interrupt will not be asserted again until the number of bytes in the receive
FIFO is equal to or less than the value programmed in RFAF[5:0], and enough bytes are
received to again cause the FIFO fill level to exceed the RFAF[5:0] value.
