PRELIMINARY
The Terminal Equipment will serially output the data
on the E3_Data_Out[2:0] pins, upon the rising edge
of the signal at the E3_Clock_In input pin.
NOTE: The E3_Data_Out[2:0] output pins of the Terminal
Equipment is electrically connected to the TxNib[2:0] input
pins.
The XRT74L73 will latch the data, residing on the Tx-
Nib[2:0] input pins, on the rising edge of the TxNibClk
signal.
In this case, the Terminal Equipment has the respon-
sibility of providing the framing reference signal by
pulsing the Tx_Start_of_Frame output pin (and in
turn, the TxFrameRef input pin of the XRT74L73)
"High" for one bit-period, coincident with the first bit of
a new E3 frame. Once the XRT74L73 detects the ris-
ing edge of the input at its TxFrameRef input pin, it
will begin generation of a new E3 frame.
Finally, the XRT74L73 will always internally generate
the Overhead bits, when it is operating in both the E3
and Nibble-parallel modes. The XRT74L73 will pull
the TxOHInd input pin "Low".
The behavior of the signals between the XRT74L73
and the Terminal Equipment for E3 Mode 5 Operation
is illustrated in Figure 116 .

How to configure the XRT74L73 into Mode 5
1. Set the NibIntf input pin "High".
2. Set the TimRefSel[1:0] bit-fields (within the
Framer Operating Mode Register) to "01" as illus-
trated below.
