NOTE
The CANTFLG register is held in the reset state when the initialization 
mode is active (INITRQ = 1 and INITAK = 1). This register is writable 
when not in initialization mode (INITRQ = 0 and INITAK = 0).
18.3.2.8 MSCAN Transmitter Interrupt Enable Register (CANTIER)
This register contains the interrupt enable bits for the transmit buffer empty interrupt flags.

Field Description
2-0
TXE[2:0]
Transmitter Buffer Empty — This flag indicates that the associated transmit message buffer is empty, and thus 
not scheduled for transmission. The CPU must clear the flag after a message is set up in the transmit buffer and 
is due for transmission. The MSCAN sets the flag after the message is sent successfully. The flag is also set by 
the MSCAN when the transmission request is successfully aborted due to a pending abort request (see 
Section 18.3.2.9, “MSCAN Transmitter Message Abort Request Register (CANTARQ)”). If not masked, a 
transmit interrupt is pending while this flag is set.
Clearing a TXEx flag also clears the corresponding ABTAKx (see Section 18.3.2.10, “MSCAN Transmitter 
Message Abort Acknowledge Register (CANTAAK)”). When a TXEx flag is set, the corresponding ABTRQx bit 
is cleared (see Section 18.3.2.9, “MSCAN Transmitter Message Abort Request Register (CANTARQ)”).
When listen-mode is active (see Section 18.3.2.2, “MSCAN Control Register 1 (CANCTL1)”) the TXEx flags 
cannot be cleared and no transmission is started.
Read and write accesses to the transmit buffer will be blocked, if the corresponding TXEx bit is cleared 
(TXEx = 0) and the buffer is scheduled for transmission.
0 The associated message buffer is full (loaded with a message due for transmission)
1 The associated message buffer is empty (not scheduled)
