MFRC631
High performance ISO/IEC 14443 A/B reader solution
9.4.3 FIFOLength
Number of bytes in the FIFO buffer. In 512-byte mode this register is extended by
FIFOControl.FifoLength.
9.4.4 FIFOData
In- and output of FIFO buffer. Contrary to any read/write access to other addresses,
reading or writing to the FIFO address does not increment the address pointer. Resulting
in an efficient data transfer from and to the FIFO buffer. Writing to the FIFOData register
increments, reading decrements the number of bytes present in the FIFO.
9.5 Interrupt configuration registers
The Registers IRQ0 register and IRQ1 register implement a special functionality to avoid
the not intended modification of bits.
The mechanism of changing register contents requires the following consideration:
IRQ(x). Set indicates, if a set bit on position 0 to 6 shall be cleared or set. Depending on
the content of IRQ(x).Set, a write of a logical 1 to positions 0 to 6 either clears or sets the
corresponding bit. With this register the application can modify the interrupt status which
is maintained by the MFRC631.
Bit 7 indicates, if the intended modification is a setting or clearance of a bit. Any 1 written
to a bit position 6...0 will trigger the setting or clearance of this bit as defined by bit 7.
Example: writing FFh sets all bits 6..0, writing 7Fh clears all bits 6..0 of the interrupt
request register

Bit Symbol Description
7 to 0 FIFOLength Indicates the number of bytes in the FIFO buffer. In 512-byte mode this
register is extended by the bits FIFOLength in the FIFOControl
register. Writing to the FIFOData register increments, reading
decrements the number of available bytes in the FIFO.
