clare itself in the In-Frame condition, and will begin
Frame Maintenance operations. The Receive DS3
Framer block will then indicate that it has transitioned
from the OOF condition into the In-Frame condition by
doing the following.
• Generate a Change in OOF Condition interrupt to
the local µP.
• Negate the RxOOF output pin (e.g., toggle it
"Low").
• Negate the RxOOF bit-field (Bit 4) within the
Receive DS3 Configuration and Status Register.
The user can configure the Receive DS3 Framer to
operate such that 'valid parity' (P-bits) must also be
detected before the Receive DS3 Framer can declare
itself In Frame. The user can set this configuration by
writing the appropriate data to the Rx DS3 Configura-
tion and Status Register, as depicted below.

The In-frame is declared after F-bit synchronization (10 F-bit matches) followed by M-bit synchronization (M-
bit matches for 3 DS3 M-frames)
1
The In-frame condition is declared after F-bit synchronization, followed by M-bit synchronization, with valid
parity over the frames. Also, the occurrence of parity errors in 2 or more out of 5 frames starts a frame search
Once the Receive DS3 Framer block is operating in
the In-Frame condition, normal data recovery and
processing of the DS3 data stream begins. The max-
imum average reframing time is less than 1.5 ms.
4.3.2.2 Frame Maintenance Mode Operation
When the Receive DS3 Framer block is operating in
the In-Frame state (per Figure 81), it will then begin to
perform Frame Maintenance operations, where it will
continue to verify that the F- and M-bits are present,
at their proper locations. While the Receive DS3
Framer block is operating in the Frame Maintenance
mode, it will declare an Out-of-Frame (OOF) condition
if 3 or 6 F-bits (depending upon user selection) out of
16 consecutive F-bits are in error. The user makes
this selection for the OOF Declaration criteria by writ-
ing the appropriate value to bit 1 (F-Sync Algo) of the
Rx DS3 Configuration and Status Register, as depict-
ed below.
