Mode 5 - The Nibble-Parallel/Local-Time/Frame-Slave Interface Mode Behavior of the
XRT72L50
If the XRT72L50 has been configured to operate in this mode, then the XRT72L50 will function as follows:
A. Local Timing - Uses the TxInClk signal as the Timing Reference
In this mode, the Transmit Section of the XRT72L50 will use the TxInClk signal at its timing reference. Further,
the chip will internally divide the TxInClk clock signal by a factor of 4 and will output this divided clock signal via
the TxNibClk output pin. The Transmit Terminal Equipment Input Interface block (within the XRT72L50) will
use the rising edge of the TxNibClk signal, to latch the data, residing on the TxNib[3:0] into its circuitry.
B. Nibble-Parallel Mode
The XRT72L50 will accept the E3 payload data, from the Terminal Equipment, in a parallel manner, via the
TxNib[3:0] input pins. The Transmit Terminal Equipment Input Interface will latch this data into its circuitry, on
the rising edge of the TxNibClk output signal.
C. Delineation of Outbound E3 Frames
The Transmit Section will use the TxInClk input signal as its timing reference and will use the TxFrameRef input
signal as its Framing Reference (e.g., the Transmit Section of the XRT72L50 initiates frame generation upon
the rising edge of the TxFrameRef signal).
D. Sampling of payload data, from the Terminal Equipment
In Mode 5, the XRT72L50 will sample the data, at the TxNib[3:0] input pins, on the third rising edge of the
TxInClk clock signal, following a pulse in the TxNibClk signal (see Figure 154).
NOTE: The TxNibClk signal, from the XRT72L50 operates nominally at 8.592 MHz (e.g., 34.368 MHz divided by 4).
Interfacing the Transmit Payload Data Input Interface block of the XRT72L50 to the Terminal Equipment
for Mode 5 Operation
Figure 153 presents an illustration of the Transmit Payload Data Input Interface block (within the XRT72L50)
being interfaced to the Terminal Equipment, for Mode 5 Operation.
