MU9C8338A 10/100Mb Ethernet Filter Interface
Applications
Built-In Routines
The MU9C8338A contains built-in LANCAM routines
that perform all the necessary LANCAM operations. The
DA and SA search routines are performed automatically
by the device in order to provide the search result and
update the address table. The other routines are invoked as
described in Operational Characteristics: Built-in
Routines.
Notes:
aaaaH = CAM Address value (Hexadecimal)
ddddH = Data value (Hexadecimal)
ppppH = CAM Page Address value (Hexadecimal)
xxxxH = "Don’t Care"
