edge of the TxNibClk output clock signal. The
XRT7250 will indicate that it is processing the last
nibble, within a given DS3 frame, by pulsing its TxNib-
Frame output pin "High" for one TxNibClk clock peri-
od. When the Terminal Equipment detects a pulse at
its Tx_Start_of_Frame input pin, it is expected to
transmit the first nibble, of the very next outbound
DS3 frame to the XRT7250 via the
DS3_Data_Out[3:0] (or TxNib[3:0] pins).
Finally, for the Nibble-Parallel Mode operation, the
XRT7250 will continuously pull the TxOHInd output
pin "Low".
The behavior of the signals between the XRT7250
and the Terminal Equipment for DS3 Mode 4 Opera-
tion is illustrated in Figure 51.

How to configure the XRT7250 into Mode 4
1. Set the NibIntf input pin "High".
2. Set the TimRefSel[1:0] bit-fields (within the
Framer Operating Mode Register) to “00" as illus-
trated below.
