To Transmit DS3 Framer Block
The DS3 Frame consists of 4760 bits. Of these bits,
4704 bits are payload bits and the remaining 56 bits
are overhead bits. The XRT74L73 has been de-
signed to handle and process both the payload type
and overhead type bits for each DS3 frame. Within
the Transmit Section within the XRT74L73, the Trans-
mit Payload Data Input Interface has been designed
to handle the payload data. Likewise, the Transmit
Overhead Data Input Interface has been designed to
handle and process the overhead bits.
The Transmit Section of the XRT74L73 generates or
processes the various overhead bits within the DS3
frame, in the following manner.
The Frame Synchronization Overhead Bits (e.g.,
the F and M bits)
The F and M bits are always internally generated by
the Transmit Section of the XRT74L73. These over-
head bits are used (by the Remote Terminal Equip-
ment) for Frame Synchronization purposes. Hence,
user values cannot be inserted for the F and M bits
into the outbound DS3 data stream, via the Transmit
Overhead Data Input Interface. Any attempt to exter-
