The following figure shows an example of the TX user interface signals in immediate NFC mode when an NFC message is received. The NFC message sends 8'b01, requesting two cycles without data transmission. The core deasserts s_axi_tx_tready to prevent data transmission for two cycles.

Figure 1. Transmitting a Message with NFC Idles Inserted

Aurora 64B/66B cores can also operate in completion mode where NFC idles are only inserted before the first data bytes of a new frame. If a completion mode core receives an NFC message while it is transmitting a frame, the core finishes transmitting the frame before deasserting s_axi_tx_tready to insert idles.
