BCLK Phase Constraints In Repeater Mode; Non-Conformance
While in repeater mode (REPEAT_EN = 1 for CH1 & CH2), a BCLK1 to BCLK2 phase
difference of 180 degrees, +/- 5 nSec, will result in corrupted data transfer. All other phase
relationships are acceptable.
In a repeater-mode application, to prevent a phase difference of 180 degrees between BCLK1
and BCLK2, the same clock is feed to both BCLK1 and BCLK2. To use the same clock for both
HDSL transceivers, one HDSL transceiver needs to be slaved to the other HDSL transceiver.
This is accomplished by setting the HDSL transceiver, which is configured as HTU-C, to
“parallel slave mode”. Then the parallel signals, from the HDSL transceiver, need to be
externally converted to “serial, sign first mode” to interface to the Bt8953A/RS8953B.
To configure the Zipwire transceiver to “parallel slave mode”, address 0x06 of the Zipwire
transceiver needs to be modified. Also to align the sign and magnitude data correctly, the
tbclk_pol and rbclk_pol needs to set properly. The tbclk_pol and rdbclk_pol are controlled by
address 0x06 of the Zipwire transceiver. TQ[1,0] should be sampled on the falling edge of
TBCLK. RQ[1,0] should be sampled on the falling edge of RBCLK.
