ABSTRACT:
A network hardware device of the invention includes a reception section receiving data from a network, and outputting a reception completion signal, a timer section measuring a preset time, and a delay section generating an interrupt signal so as to notify a host CPU of completion of the reception. When the timer section does not measure a time, the delay section generates an interrupt signal upon reception of the reception completion signal. On the other hand, when the timer section measures a time, upon reception of the reception completion signal, the delay section generates an interrupt signal after the timer section measures a preset time.
