No.
RRA[0]
Input
80
Receive Read Address LSB (RRA[0]). The
RRA[0] signal is available on this pin when input
MPHEN is high. RRA[0] is used (along with
RRA[1]) to select the FIFO (and hence port) that
is read from using the RRDMPHB signal.
RRA[0] is sampled on the rising edge of RFCLK
together with RRDMPHB.
RRDENB[2]
Receive Read Enable PHY #2 (RRDENB[2]).
The RRDENB[2] signal is available on this pin
when input MPHEN is low. RRDENB[2] is used
to initiate reads from the receive FIFO of PHY
#2. When sampled low using the rising edge of
RFCLK (and the remaining three RRDENBs
remain high), a byte is read from PHY #2's
synchronous FIFO and output on bus RDAT[7:0]
if one is available. When sampled high using
the rising edge of RFCLK, no read is performed
and RDAT[7:0] and RSOC are tristated.
RRDENB[2] must operate in conjunction with
RFCLK to access the FIFOs at a high enough
instantaneous rate as to avoid FIFO overflows.
The ATM layer device may deassert RRDENB[2]
at anytime it is unable to accept another byte.
