Two methods exist for transferring control information in
the secondary frame. The default power-up mode uses
the LSB of the 16-bit transmit (TX) data word as a flag to
request a secondary transfer. In this mode, only 15-bit
TX data is transferred, resulting in a loss of SNR but
allowing software control of the secondary frames. As
an alternative method, the FC pin can serve as a
hardware flag for requesting a secondary frame. The
external DSP can turn on the 16-bit TX mode by setting
