25.17.5 TCODEs Supported by NXDM
The NXDM pins allow for flexible transfer operations via public messages. A TCODE defines the transfer 
format, the number and/or size of the packets to be transferred, and the purpose of each packet. The 
IEEE®-ISTO 5001-2003 standard defines a set of public messages. The NXDM block currently support 
the public TCODEs seen in Table 25-56.
