Voice Pair Gain Framer
The Bt8954 framer has been tailored specifically to meet the needs of voice pair gain systems (also referred to as “cable relief systems” and “digital subscriber line carriers”) by providing a direct connection to the DSL modem and the CODEC. It performs data, clock, and format conversions necessary to construct a Pulse Code Multiplexed (PCM) channel from a Symmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL) or a High-Bit-Rate Digital Subscriber Line (HDSL) channel. The PCM channel consists of transmit and receive data, clock, and frame sync signals configured for 2–18 voice channels. The PCM channel connects directly to popular PCM codecs. The Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) channel interface consists of serial data and clock connected to a RS8973, Bt8970 or a Bt8960 DSL Transceiver. The Bt8954 supports clear and compressed voice system. When coupled with a Bt8960, the Bt8954 provides PCM4 functions at greater than 5 km reach with no voice compression, allowing V.34 modem operation.
At one end, Bt8954 multiplexes payload data from several PCM codecs with the appropriate overhead and signaling bits into one transport frame that is passed on to the bit-pump, for transport over a single twisted pair. At the other end, Bt8954 demultiplexes the DSL bit stream into payload data sent to the PCM codec, and overhead data written into microcomputer-accessible registers.
Embedded Operations Channel (EOC) and signaling overhead can be inserted via the Microcomputer Interface (MCI). Control and status registers are accessed via the MCI. One common register group configures the PCM interface formatter, Phase-Locked Loop (PLL), and PCM Loopback (LB). Another group of DSL channel registers configures the elastic store FIFOs, overhead muxes, receive framer, payload mapper , and the DSL loopback. Status registers monitor received overhead, PLL, FIFO, and framer operations, including CRC and FEBE error counts.

1.1 Voice Pair Gain Applications

A well-established market exists for voice pair gain systems. In such systems, several simultaneous phone conversations are transported over a single twisted pair. These systems are used by telecommunications service providers to maximize the utilization of the existing copper plant and allow it to provision many more telephone circuits than is possible with ordinary 4 kHz analog transport. The external interfaces of voice pair gain systems, at both the Central Office and remote ends, are analog POTS lines. Two carrier techniques facilitate single pair gain transmission: Frequency Domain Multiplexed Systems (FDM) and Time Domain Multiplexed Systems (TDM). In FDM systems each voice channel is modulated by a successively higher carrier such that the composite transmission consists of several frequency bands. In TDM systems the voice data is digitized and sampled in a channel-multiplexed fashion. Although FDM systems are currently fielded, recent trends are clearly toward TDM systems because of the inherent advantages associated with digital transmission.
N8954DSC
Traditional PCM4 (also called “1+3”) voice pair gain systems use a combination of 2:1 Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation (ADPCM) compression and basic rate Integrated Service Digital Network (ISDN) U-interface devices to transport four-voice conversations on one twisted pair . The disadvantage of this scheme is that clear 64 kbps channel capacity is lost due to the ADPCM voice compression algorithm. This may prevent high-speed facsimile and data transmissions from being transported reliably. Since telecommunication service providers want to provision telephone equipment that can be used for business purposes, this disadvantage has caused them to seek alternative solutions that can handle data as well as voice. When used with a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) bit pump, such as the Bt8960, PCM4 systems can be constructed to transmit clear 64 kbps channels, thereby enabling voice, fax, and data transmission.
The Bt8954 with a higher speed DSL bit pump, such as the Bt8970, allows a greater number of voice conversations to be simultaneously carried over a single twisted pair. The Bt8954/Bt8970 comb ination can facilitate up to 18 64-kbps time slots. If clear channel capability is needed, this combination results 18 (PCM18) systems. When used with 2:1 ADPCM voice compression, the Bt8954/Bt8970 combination makes up to 36 voice channels possible.

1.1 Voice Pair Gain Applications
Bt8954’s position among the key elements of a PCM4 (4-channel) voice pair gain modem is illustrated in Figure 1-1. The Pulse Code Multiplexed (PCM) codec and Subscriber Line Interface Circuit (SLIC) chips for each channel perform the transmit encoding (A/D conversion) and receive decoding (D/A conversion) of voice signals. The time-division multiplexing of the voice signals on the PCMT and PCMR serial buses is as follows: Bt8954 informs PCM Codec_n with the PCMFn frame sync when to expect the next byte from Bt8954 on the PCMR bus, and when to put its next byte on the PCMT bus. In this way, Bt8954 uses the PCMFn frame sync to designate the time slot that Codec_n has access to the PCMR and PCMT buses.

Figure 1-2 illustrates a pair of Bt8954 repeaters placed in line between Central
Office and remote terminals to extend the transmission distance. For each Bt8954 repeater, the BCLK/QCLK is connected to the BCLK/QCLK of its source transceiver while the BCLK_REP/QCLK_REP is connected to the BCLK/QCLK of its destination transceiver. The Central Office Bt8954 gets its HCLK/BCLK/QCLK from the Central Office transceiver, which generates them from a free-running crystal. The repeater transceiver connected to the Central Office recovers its HCLK, BCLK, and QCLK from the HDSL line. These signals then drive the HCLK, BCLK, and QCLK pins of the Central Of fice to Remote Terminal Bt8954, and the HCLK, BCLK_REP, and QCLK_REP pins of the Remote Terminal to Central Office Bt8954. The repeater transceiver connected to the Remote Terminal receives HCLK from the repeater transceiver connected to the Central Office. The repeater transceiver connected to the Remote Terminal generates BCLK/QCLK and drives the BCLK/QCLK pins of the Remote Terminal to Central Office Terminal Bt8954. The repeater transceiver drives the BCLK_REP/QCLK_REP pins of the Central Office Terminal to Remote Terminal Bt8954.

In Repeater Mode, the Bt8954 does not use the FIFOs. First, data received from the bit pump is descrambled.

Figure 1-3 illustrates a DSL data modem application where a Central Processing
Unit (CPU) delivers PCM data directly to Bt8954. Alternatively, a multichannel communications controller such as Bt8472/4 can be used to manage the transfer of data between the CPU and the PCM channel through a local shared memory.

3.1 Overview

Figure 3-1 details the major blocks and pins of Bt8954. After the 2B1Q decode of
the bit stream is received from the DSL bit pump, the Receive Framer detects the beginning of the Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) frame, and generates the required pulses for synchronizing the different demultiplexing functions. The Payload Demux block strips overhead bits from the DSL frame and puts the payload for the different Pulse Code Multiplexed (PCM) time slots into the PCM RFIFO. The PCM RFIFO is emptied through the PCMR pin.
On the transmit side, the PCM TFIFO is filled with serial data on PCMT. Payload data from the TFIFO is multiplexed with signaling data from the signaling registers and overhead from the OH (overhead) registers. The multiplexed data is then sent to the DSL bit pump, through the TDAT pin, after being 2B1Q encoded.
PCM and DSL loopback functions are performed using the loopback blocks. The PCMCLK, ADPCMCK, and the internal clock are generated and synchronized to BCLK with the PLL. The PLL uses HCLK as its clock reference.

3.2 DSL Frame Format
The DSL frame is the fundamental data element of the bit streams transmitted and received by Bt8954 at the DSL interface. It is patterned after the 2 T1, 2 E1, and 3 E1 frame structures. Figure 3-2 illustrates the basic format of a DSL frame.

3.2.1 Detailed Frame Structure

Each frame has a 6 ms duration and is made up of 48 payload blocks. Each block contains S number of S-bits (for data signaling) and N number of bytes where N is the number of PCM time slots. The microcomputer selects the number of S-bits in the NUM_SBITS [3:0] field of Transmit Command register 2 [TCMD_2; 0x87.5:2] and the N number of PCM time slots in the NUM_ CHAN[4:0] field of the PCM Format register [PCM_FORMAT; 0xF1.4:0]. S-bits vary from 0 to 8 bits, while N varies from 1 to 18 time slots. Groups of 12 payload blocks are concatenated, and each group is separated by an ordered set of DOH (DSL ov erhead) bits. A 14-bit SYNC word pattern identifies the beginning of the DSL frame.
Forty-eight overhead bits are defined in one DSL frame with the last 2 bits used for stuffing. This corresponds to an 8 kbps (48 bits/6 ms) overhead bit rate. The 2 bits of stuffing are the average number of stuffing bits per frame since the transmitter alternatively transmits 0 bits of stuffing or 4 bits of stuffing in each frame.

3.2.2 Differences Between the DSL and HDSL T1/E1 Frame Formats

The DSL frame format is similar to the T1/E1 frame formats that are transported on one HDSL loop. The main difference is due to the number of S-bits. While fixed as 1 F-bit/block and 1 Z-bit/block for the T1 and E1 HDSL frame f ormats, it can vary between 0 and 8 bits for the DSL frame format. The number of S-bits is allow e d to v ary up to 8 bits so that a v ariab le numb er of D-channel bit r ates (up to 64 kbps) can be supported.
3.2.2.1 EXTRA_Z_BIT Option
Some systems (e.g., PCM11) require an extra 8 kbps Z-bit field in addition to the basic frame structure outlined in Figure 3-2. T o accommodate such systems, each block of the DSL frame has an extra Z-bit (preceding the S-bits field) that can be enabled for transmit when EXTRA_Z_BIT in Command register 1 [CMD_1; 0xC0.5] is set. For example, a PCM11 system can have a 784 kbps bit rate consisting of 704 kbps (11x64 kbps) of payload, 8 kbps of ov er head, 64 kbps of signaling information, and 8 kbps of the extra Z-bit. This extra Z-bit field is a dummy field and is not accessible through the MC.

3.2.3 Overhead Bit Allocation

The overhead bit allocation of the DSL frame is the same as that of the HDSL frame given in Table 3-1.

3.3 Receiver

The receiver performs SYNC word detection, overhead extraction, descrambling of payload data, error performance monitoring, and payload mapping of DSL data from the received DSL frame into the PCM RFIFO. Figure 3-3 illustrates the receiver block diagram. The receiver consists of the 2B1Q decoder, receive framer, descramb ler, CRC check, and payload demux.

3.3.2 Receive Framer

Voice Pair Gain Framer
The receive framer generates the RDSL_6ms pulse after detecting the SYNC WORD. RDSL_6ms generates pointers that control overhead extraction in the CRC and OH demux circuitry. The MC initializes the framer to the OUT_OF SYNC state by writing an y data value to SYNC_RST [0xD8]. F rom the OUT_OF SYNC state, the framer advances to SYNC_A CQUIRED when the SYNC w ord is detected. The framer searches all bits received on RDAT to locate a match with the SYNC word pattern, SYNC_WORD [0xA1].
Due to the possibility of Tip/Ring connector reversal, all sign bits received on RDAT might be inverted. Therefore, the receive framer searches for both the programmed SYNC word value and the sign-inverted SYNC word value. Consequently, a maximum of two values of the SYNC word are used in finding the frame location. If the SYNC word detected is a sign-in verted version of the configured SYNC word, the framer sets the Tip/Ring Inversion [TR_INVERT] status bit of the Receive Status 1 register [RSTATUS_1; 0xE5.6] and automatically inverts the sign of all quats received on RDAT.
After detecting the SYNC WORD and changing to the SYNC_ACQUIRED state, the framer progresses through a programmable number of intermediate SYNC_ACQUIRED states before entering the IN_SYNC state. In each SYNC_ACQUIRED state, the framer searches for the previously detected SYNC word v alue in one of tw o locations based upon the absence or presence of the four STUFF bits (detected by the STUFF Detector). If the SYNC word is detected in one of the two possible locations, the STATE_CNT[2:0] counter is incremented [RSTATUS_2; 0xE6.2:0]. When STATE_CNT[2:0] increments to the value selected by the REACH_SYNC[2:0] criteria [RCMD_1; 0x90.2:0], the framer changes to the IN_SYNC state. During the SYNC_ACQUIRED state, if valid SYNC is not detected at one of the two possible locations, the framer returns to the OUT_OF_SYNC state as illustrated in Figure 3-4.

Voice Pair Gain Framer
After entering IN_SYNC, the framer either remains IN_SYNC as successive SYNC words are detected or regresses to the SYNC_ERRORED state if SYNC pattern errors are found. During SYNC_ERRORED states, the number of matching bits from each comparison of received SYNC word and the programmed SYNC word pattern must meet or exceed the programmed pattern match tolerance specified by THRESH_CORR [RCMD_2; 0x91.3:0]. If the number of matching bits falls below tolerance, the framer expands the locations searched to quats on either side of the expected location, as illustrated in
Figure 3-5. After detecting a SYNC pattern error and changing to the
SYNC_ ERRORED state, the framer passes through a programmable number of intermediate SYNC_ERRORED states, before entering the OUT_OF SYNC state. STATE_CNT increments for each frame in which SYNC is not detected until the count reaches the LOSS_SYNC[2:0] criteria [RCMD_1; 0x90.5–3] and the framer enters the OUT_OF SYNC state. If at any time during the SYNC_ERRORED state the framer detects a completely correct SYNC word pattern at one of the valid frame locations, then framer returns to the IN_SYNC state. The ETSI standard, for HDSL transport, recommends the REACH_SYNC = 2 and LOSS_SYNC = 6 framing criteria.

The CRC Check block calculates a CRC value for every receiv ed DSL frame. The CRC Check block reports an error if the CRC in the current frame (calculated at the other end’s transmitter) does not match the CRC that was calculated for the previous DSL receive frame. Individual DSL block errors are reported in the CRC_ERROR bit of the Receive Status 2 register [RSTATUS_2; 0xE6.5] and accumulated in the CRC Error Count register [CRC_CNT; 0xE8]. The CRC calculation in the receiver is exactly the same as that in the transmitter.

3.3.4 Descrambler

The MC enables the descrambler by setting DSCRAM_EN bit of the Receive Command register and selects the descrambler algorithm via the DSCRAM_ TAP [RCMD_2; 0x91.5,4]. The descrambler, if enabled, descrambles all DSL receive data except the SYNC word. The algorithm is chosen from one of two possible choices, depending on whether Bt8954 is located at the Central Office or at a Remote Site.
The descrambler is basically a 23-bit-long Linear Feedback Shift register (LFSR). The algorithm chosen determines the feedback points. The LFSR structure and polynomials for the two descrambler algorithms are illustrated in
Figure 3-6 and Figure 3-7. The descrambler is clocked with BCLK.

3.3.5 Payload Demux

3.3 Receiver
The Payload Demux block extracts the Indicator (IND), Embedded Operations Channel (EOC), and the S-bits from each receive frame and places them in microcomputer-accessible registers:
Receive Indicator Bits [RIND 0xE2, 0xE3]
Receive Embedded Operations Channel [REOC 0xE0, 0x61]
Receive Signaling FIFOs [RSFIFO_O; 0xE4]
Double-buffering is u sed to ensure that the OH and signaling information read by the microcomputer is not corrupted by newly arriving data. The microcomputer must read the contents of the OH registers within 6 ms for every frame; otherwise the data is overwritten with new received data. The microcomputer must read the contents of the RSFIFO_O register within 6 ms, 3 ms, 2 ms, or 1 ms, depending on the EXTRA_SIG_UPDATE configuration bits that are programmed in Command register 1 [CMD_1; 0xC0].

3.4.2 Transmit Signaling FIFOs

Using two sets of transmit signaling FIFOs (TSFIFO_I and TSFIFO_O), double buffering ensures that the MC has enough time to write new signaling information without corrupting the signaling information being transmitted, as illustrated in Figure 3-9.

3.4.3 Payload Mux

The MC loads the TSFIFO_I registers after receiving the LD_TSIG interrupt. In the default case, LD_TSIG is the same as the DSL 6 ms receive frame interrupt that occurs upon the arrival of the 6 ms DSL frame. The LD_TSIG interrupt can be made to occur more frequently than 6 ms by programming non-00 values in the EXTRA_SIG_UPDATE bits in the CMD_1 register [0xC0]. Six, three, two, or one millisecond(s) later, TSFIFO_I registers are loaded into TSFIFO_O registers at the next LD_TSIG. TSFIFO_O, which is then transmitted, is not thereby corrupted by the new TSFIFO_I values being written by the MC during the next interval.
The Payload Mux multiplexes the overhead bits from the OH registers, payload data from the PCM TFIFO, the SYNC w ord and the CRC bits that were calculated for the previous transmit frame.

3.4.4 CRC Calculation

Voice Pair Gain Framer
The CRC calculation is performed on all transmit data, and the Payload Mux inserts the resulting 6-bit CRC into the subsequent output frame. CRC is calculated over all bits in the (N)th frame except the SYNC WORD, STUFF, and CRC bits and then is inserted into the (N+1) frame. The MPU can choose to inject CRC errors on a per-frame basis by setting the ICRC_ERR bit [TCMD_1; addr 0x86.1]. The six CRC bits are calculated as follows:
1.
All bits of the (N) frame except the 14 SYNC and 6 CRC bits, for a total of M bits are used in order of occurrence to construct a polynomial in X
M-1
such that bit 0 of the (N) frame is the coefficient of the term X

3.5 PCM Formatter

Voice Pair Gain Framer
3.5 PCM Formatter
The PCM formatter shifts out the PCMR data at the rising edge of PCMCKI, samples the PCMT data at the falling edge of PCMCKI, and generates the PCM frame SYNC signals based on the PCM Format Configuration register [0xF1] as illustrated in Figure 3-12. The PCM formatter supports direct connection to popular PCM codecs. Because the formatter generates only one frame SYNC signal for each PCM codec, codecs like the T e xas Instruments TP3054A that hav e two frame SYNC signals (FSX for transmit and FSR for receive) must have both frame SYNCs tied before being connected to the Bt8954.

All time slots carry clear voice or compressed voice channels depending on the COMPRESSED bit configuration in the PCM Format register [0xF1.5]. Only 2:1 ADPCM compression is allowed. Therefore, a 64 kbps time slot is carrying either 2 x 32 kbps of compressed voice or 64 kbps or clear voice. The Bt8954 has a maximum capacity of 18 clear or 36 compressed voice channels.
The frame SYNCs are in an encoded or decoded form depending on the ENC_FSYNC bit configuration in PCM_FORMAT [0xF1.6]. If ENC_FSYNC is reset, the PCM formatter can generate up to 18 frame SYNCs (PCMF[18:1]). In this case, the frame SYNCs of all the unused time slots are held low. For e xample, for a PCM4 system, PCMF[4:1] are active but PCMF[18:5] are held low.
If ENC_FSYNC is set, the PCM formatter generates the frame SYNCs in the Encoded_Frame_SYNC mode, driving the channel numbers through EPCMF[6:1], but holding PCMF[18:7] low. Externally, decoders can be used to generate frame SYNCs from the channel numbers.
The period of PCMF[18:1] or EPCMF[6:1] for clear channels is 8 times the PCMCKI period, while the period for compressed channels is 4 times the PCMCKI period.

3.7 Synchronization

3.7 Synchronization
All signals are synchronized to TDSL_6ms, RDSL_6ms, TPCM_6ms, and RPCM_6ms. All status registers are synchronized to either TDSL_6ms or RDSL_6ms. The transmitter signals at the DSL (PCM) interface are synchronized to TDSL_6ms (TPCM_6ms). The receiver signals at the DSL (PCM) interface are synchronized to RDSL_6ms (RPCM_6ms). The main contributor to the phase differences between the DSL_6ms and PCM_6ms signals is that while data is received and transmitted in a bursty fashion at the PCM interface, it is received and transmitted in a continuous fashion at the DSL interface.
The detailed relationship between the DSL_6ms and PCM_6ms signals depends on whether the framer is at the Central Office (COTF) or at the Remote Site (RTF). Ev en though TPCM _6ms and RPCM_6ms may not be phase-aligned, TFIFO and RFIFO prov ide sufficient data buffering for PCMF to mark coincident PCM receive and transmit 125µs frame boundaries. The synchronization between COTF and RTF is illustrated in Figure 3-15.

3.7.1 COTF Transmitter Synchronization

In the COTF, TPCM_6 ms is always a free-running 6 ms-period signal. At the Central Office, the DSL transmit frames are slaved to the PCM frame timing. As illustrated in Figure 3-16, TDSL_6 ms is a 6 ms-period signal that is phase-offset from TPCM_6ms by TFIFO_WL.COT (TFIFO Water Level in the COTF). TFIFO_WL.COT determines the amount of PCM data written into the TFIFO before the transmitter begins extracting DSL frames from the TFIFO.

In the RTF, the RPCM_6 ms and TPCM_6 ms signals are the same because the same PCM frame SYNC is used for transmitting and receiving PCM frames from the PCM codecs. As illustrated in Figure 3-18, TDSL_6ms is phase-offset from TPCM_6 ms by TFIFO_WL.RT (TFIFO Water Level in the RTF). The DSL transmit frames are slaved to the PCM transmit frame timing, which in turn is slaved to the DSL receive frame timing at the Remote Site. TFIFO_WL.RT = TFIFO_WL.COT.

At the Central Office, the PCM receive frames are slaved to the DSL frame timing and aligned to the transmit PCM_125 µs frame.

3.8.1 Microcomputer Read/Write

The MCI provides access to a 128-byte internal address space. Figure 3-21 depicts the read/write controls. The MCI uses either an 8-bit-wide multiplexed address-data bus (Intel style) or one 8-bit-wide data bus and another separate 7-bit-wide address bus (Motorola style) for external data communications. The interface is configured with the inputs, MOTEL* and MUXED. MOTEL* low selects Intel-type microcomputer and control signals: ALE, CS*, RD*, WR*. MOTEL* high selects Motorola-type microcomputer and control signals: ALE, CS*, DS*, R/W*. MUXED high configures the interface to use the multiplexed address-data bus with both the address and data on the AD[7:0] pins. MUXED low configures the interface to use separate address and data buses with the data on the AD[7:0] pins and the address on the ADDR[6:0] pins.

Motorola MCI has R/W* falling edge preceding the falling edge of CS* and DS*. The rising edge of R/W* occurs after the rising edge of CS* and DS*. Data is latched on the address-data bus on the rising edge of WR* or DS*.
3.8.1.2 Separated Address/Data Bus
N8954DSC
The timing for a read or write cycle using the separated address and data buses is essentially the same as over the multiplexed bus. The one exception is that the address must be driven onto the ADDR[6:0] bus rather than the AD[7:0] bus.

3.8.2 Interrupt Request

Voice Pair Gain Framer
The open drain interrupt request output (IRQ*) indicates when a particular set of transmit, receive, or common status registers has been updated. Eight maskable interrupt sources are requested on the common IRQ* pin:
1.
TX = Transmit 6 ms Frame
2.
TX_ERR = Transmit Channel Errors or Transmit HDSL Frame Repositioned
3.
RX = Receive 6 ms Frame
4.
RX_ERR = Receive Channel Errors or Framer State Transition to IN_SYNC
5.
PLL_ERR = PLL Error
6.
LD_TSIG = Load Transmit Signaling Interrupt
7.
RD_RSIG = Read Receive Signaling Interrupt
8.
SIG_FIFO_ERR = Signaling FIFO Error Interrupt
All interrupt events are edge-sensitive. Tx and Rx interrupts are synchronized to the DSL channel’s 6 ms frame. The LD_TSIG, RD_RSIG, and SIG_FIFO_ERR occur ev ery 1 ms, 2 ms, 3, ms, or 6 ms. The rate is depend ent on the value of EXTRA_SIG_UPDATE in CMD_1. TX_ERR, RX_ERR, and PLL_ERR occur whenever these errors are detected.
The basic structure of each interrupt source is illustrated in Figure 3-22 and has two associated registers: Interrupt Mask register [IMR; 0xD1], and Interrupt Status register [ISR; 0xD0]. A 0 in a given bit of the IMR enables the corresponding interrupt. A 1 in a given bit of the IMR disables the corresponding interrupt, thereby preventing it from activating IRQ*. By reading the ISR, the MC can determine the cause of an interrupt event. Active interrupts are indicated by ISR bits that are read high while inactive interrupts are indicated by ISR bits that are read low. Writing a 0 to an Interrupt Status register bit [ISR; 0xD0] clears the corresponding interrupt, and if no other interrupts are pending, deactivates IRQ*. Writing a 1 to any ISR bit has no effect. IRQ* is an open-drain output and must be tied to a pullup resistor. This allows IRQ* to be tied together with a common interrupt request.

3.8.3 Reset

3.8 Microcomputer Interface
The reset input (RST*) is an active-low input that presets all IMR bits and clears all interrupt enables (disabling the IRQ* output). The following registers are reset synchronously b y the GCLK to a value of 0x00: ISR, RCMD_1, RCMD_2, DFRAME_LEN, SYNC_WORD, CMD_1, PFRAME_LEN, and PCM_FORMAT. This means the f
must be programmed, and then a reset must
PLL
be applied to the RST* pin. When a reset is applied to the RST* pin, the IMR is asynchronously set to a value of 0xFF.
The following configuration of the Bt8954 is not valid:
NUM_SBITS [TCMD2] = 0 EXTRA_Z_BIT [CMD_1] = 1 NUM_CHAN [PCM_FORMAT1] = 0x0B DFRAME_LEN = 0x58

3.9 PLL

Voice Pair Gain Framer
3.9 PLL
The bit pump is the clock master of Bt8954, which in turn is a clock master of the codecs. The PLL synthesizes a variety of (ADPCMCK, PCMCKO) frequency pairs from HCLK (HCLK is 32 times the bit clock, BCLK). Figure 3-23 details the PLL architecture. First, HCLK is scaled by 1/PLL_X in the prescaler to produce f multiple (PLL_INT.FRACP) of f
. The PLL output frequency, f
REF
REF
. The f give ADPCMCK, which in turn is scaled by 1/PLL_Y to give PCMCKO. The frequency of GCLK, f
GCLK
, is f
divided by P_FACTOR. GCLK clocks all the
PLL
registers in the microcomputer interface.
P_FACTOR is given by the PLL_P[1:0] bits of the PLL_SCALE register
[0xB5.6:5]. When PLL_P[1] = 1 and PLL_P[0] = 1, then the P_FACTOR is set to
8. When PLL_P[1] = 1 and PLL_P[0] = 0, then the P_FACTOR is set to 4. When PLL_P[1] = 0, then the P_FACTOR is dependent on the value of PLL_W. This allows you to adjust the value of GCLK. A lower value of GCLK lowers the power requirements of the device and the maximum speed of the microprocessor bus. The value for f
is either 196.608 MHz or 204.800 MHz.

4.0 Registers

For registers that contain less than 8 bits, assigned bits reside in LSB positions, unassigned bits are ignored during write cycles, and are indeterminate during read cycles. The LSB in all registers is bit position 0. All registers are randomly accessible. All register values written can be read back except where noted.

4.1 Register Types

The MC must read and write real-time registers (receive and transmit EOC, IND , S-bit, and status registers), within a prescribed time interval (1–6 ms) after the DSL channel’s 6 ms frame interrupt to avoid reading or writing transitory data values. Failure to read real-time registers within the pr escribed interval result s in a loss of data.
The MC writes to non-real-time command registers are event-driven and occur when the system initializes,
changes modes, or responds to an error condition.
The MC reads can be interrupt-event driven, polled, or a combination of both, allowing the choice to be dictated by system architecture. Polled procedures can avoid reading transitory real-time data by monitoring the Interrupt Status register bits [ISR; 0xD0] to determine when a particular group of registers has been updated. Interrupt-driven and polled procedures must complete reading within the prescribed 1–6 ms interval following DSL frame interrupts.

4.2 Register Groups

Bt8954 command, status, and real-time registers are divided into three groups:
Transmit
Receive
Common
The group of Transmit and Receive registers only affects operation or reports status of the DSL channel. Transmit registers reference data flow from the PCM channel to the DSL channel output. Receive registers reference data flow from the DSL channel to the PCM channel outputs. Common registers affect overall operation, primarily the PCM channel and the PLL.

The number of signaling bits is set in TCMD_2 address [0x87]. The MSB of the signaling bits is always in the MSB of the TSFIFO. An example of three signaling bits is illustrated in
Figure 4-2.
Up to 48 bytes of transmit signaling information can be loaded into TSFIFO_I by the MC after it receives the Load Transmit Signaling Interrupt (LD_TSIG) from the transmitter. The MC has 6 ms, 3 ms, 2 ms, or 1 ms, (depending on the EXTRA_SIG_UPDATE configuration in the CMD_1 register [0xC0.4:3] from the current LD_TSIG to the next LD_TSIG to load 48, 24, 16, or 8 TSFIFO_I entries. TSFIFO_I is loaded into TSFIFO_O at every LD_TSIG interrupt before TSFIFO_I is modified by the MC.
MC access to TSFIFO_I is provided by first writing to TSFIFO_PTR_RST [0xD5] to reset the write pointer, and th en writing up to 48 entries sequentially. TSFIFO_I[1] is written first. Bt8954 increments the TSFIFO_I write pointer after each write cycle to the TSFIFOs address. The pointer wraps around to point to the first entry (TSFIFO_I[1]) after the 48th entry (TSFIFO_I[48]) has been written. Therefore, the TSFIFO_I write pointer needs to be reset only once (that is, during initialization) if 48 entries are written every 6 ms.
For testing purposes, MC read access to TSFIFO_O is provided by first writing to TSFIFO_PTR_RST [0xD5] to reset the TSFIFO_O read pointer, and then reading up to 48 entries sequentially. TSFIFO_O[1] is read first. Bt8954 increments the TSFIFO_O read pointer after each read access to the TSFIFOs address. The pointer wraps around to point to the first entry (TSFIFO_O[1]) after the 48th entry (TSFIFO_O[48]) has been read.
Also, for testing, writing any value to the UPDATE_TSFIFO_O address [0xDB] initiates copying TSFIFO_I into TSFIFO_O, provided the TEST_TSFIFO bit in TCMD_1 [0x86] is set.

4.5 Receiver Registers
One group of registers configures the receiver and controls the mapping of DSL payload bytes into the receiver elastic store (RFIFO). The configuration register defines the DSL receive framer’s criteria for loss and recovery of frame alignment by selecting the number of detected SYNC WORD errors used to declare loss of sync or needed to acquire sync. Refer to Figure 3-4, registers are listed in Table 4-3. Frame alignment criteria are programmable to meet different standard application requirements.

For the repeater (Figure 2):
THRESH_CORR[3:0]
SYNC Threshold CorrelationUpon the receive framer’s entry to a SYNC_ERRORED state, the number of SYNC WORD locations searched is determined by the result of previous states threshold correlation. During an IN_SYNC state, the framer searches the two most probable SYNC word locations at 6 ms ± 1 quat, corresponding to 0 or 4 STUFF bits. One of the two locations searched must correctly match the entire 14-bit SYNC word or else the framer enters a SYNC_ERRORED state.
The highest number of matching bits found among the search locations is compared to the selected THRESH_CORR value to determine if the framer should expand the number of search locations. If the highest number of matching bits meets or exceeds the threshold, but wasn’t a complete match, the framer progresses to the next SYNC_ERRORED state and continues to each of the two most probable locations. Otherwise, the framer progresses to the next SYNC_ERRORED state, increments the number of locations to be searched, and examines quats on either side of the prior search locations. For example, if the location with highest number of matching bits is below the threshold during IN_SYNC, then the framer enters the first SYNC_ERRORED state and searches from the prior location at 6 ms ± 2 quats, and at 6 ms exactly. The effect of Threshold Correlation on the number of search locations is depicted in Figure 3-5 on page 3-7.

0xD0 ISR 8 Interrupt Status Register 0xD1 IMR 8 Interrupt Mask Register
0xD0Interrupt Status Register (ISR)
The Interrupt Status register (ISR) consists of independent read/write interrupt flags, one for each of eight internal sources. Each flag bit is set and stays set when its corresponding source indicates that a valid interrupt event occurred (for edge-triggered interrupts) or a valid interrupt condition exists (for level-sensitive interrupts). If unmasked, this event causes the IRQ* output to be activated. Writing a logic 0 to an interrupt flag causes the flag to be immediately cleared. Attempting to clear a flag whose underlying condition still exists does not immediately clear the flag, but allows it to remain set until the underlying condition expires, at which time the flag is cleared automatically. The clearing of an unmasked flag causes the IRQ* output to return to an inactive state, if no other unmasked interrupt flags are set.

0xD1Interrupt Mask Register (IMR)
The Interrupt Mask register (IMR) consists of independent read/write mask bits for each ISR [0xD0] interrupt flag. A logic 1 represents the masked condition, a logic 0 the unmasked condition. All mask bits behave identically with respect to their corresponding interrupt flags. Setting a mask bit prevents the corresponding interrupt flag from affecting the IRQ* output. Clearing a mask allows the interrupt flag to affect IRQ* output. Unmasking an active interrupt flag immediately causes the IRQ* output to go active, if currently inactive.

0xD3Scrambler Reset (SCR_RST)
Writing any data value to SCR_RST sets the 23 stages of the scrambler LFSR to 0x000001. SCR_RST is used during Conexant production test to verify scramb ler operation and is not required during normal operation.
0xD4Transmit FIFO Reset (TFIFO_RST)
Writing any data value to TFIFO_RST empties the TFIFO. The MC must write TFIFO_RST whenever the TFIFO reports an overflow or underflow [TSTATUS_1; 0xE7], and after the PLL has settled. Each write to TFIFO_RST may cause up to three TFIFO errors to be reported in subsequent DSL frames. Therefore, the MC must ignore up to three TFIFO errors reported after writing the TFIFO_RST command.
0xD5—Reset Pointer to Transmit Signaling FIFOs (TSFIFO_PTR_RST)
Writing any data value to TSFIFO_PTR_RST resets the pointer to the transmit signaling input FIFOs.

0xD7Receive Elastic Store FIFO Reset (RFIFO_RST)
Writing any data value to RFIFO_RST empties the RFIFO and forces the payload map per to r ealign DSL bytes with respect to the receive DSL 6 ms frame. The MC must write RFIFO_RST whenever an RFIFO error is reported [RSTATUS_1; 0xE5], and after the PLL has settled. Writing RFIFO_RST corrupts up to three receive PCM frames worth of data.
0xD8Receive Framer Synchronization Reset (SYNC_RST)
Writing any data value to SYNC_RST forces the recei ve framer to the OUT_OF_SYNC state, w hich restarts the SYNC word search and causes the framer to issue an RX_ERR interrupt [ISR; 0xD0.3]. The MC must write SYNC_RST after modifying FRAMER_EN [RCMD_1; 0x90.6], or SYNC_WORD. Writing SYNC_RST corrupts up to three receive PCM frames worth of data.
0xD9Error Count Reset (ERR_RST)
Writing any data value to ERR_RST clears the receive CRC Error Counter [CRC_CNT; 0xE8], the receive Far End Block Error Counter [FEBE_CNT; 0x6E9] and consequently clears the counter overflow CRC_OVR and FEBE_O VR bits [RSTATUS_2; 0xE6.6:7]. ERR_RST clears the error counters immediately and must be issued within 6 ms after the respective receive frame interrupt in order to avoid clearing unreported errors. No other receive errors (CRC_ERR or RFIFO) are affected by ERR_RST.
0xDAReset Receiver (RX_RST)
Writing any data value to RX_RST forces the PCM formatter to align the PCM receive timebase with respect to the DSL channel’s receive 6 ms frame by reloading the RFIFO_WL value [0xA2, 0xA3]. The MC must write RX_RST after modifying the RFIFO_WL value. Bt8954 automatically performs RX_RST each time the receive framer changes alignment and transitions to the IN_SYNC state, if the EN_AUTO_RFIFO_RST is set.
Issuing RX_RST while the PCM formatter is aligned causes no change in alignment of the PCM receive
timebase.
0xDBUpdate TSFIFO_O (UPDATE_TSFIFO_O)
Writing any data v alue to UPDATE_TSFIFO_O initiates a copy of TSF IFO_I into TSFIFO_O. This is only used for testing.

4.11 Receive/Transmit Status
The MC can read all Receive and T ransmit Status re gisters non-destructivel y at an y time. All status registers are updated coincident with the DSL channel’s receive or transmit 6 ms frame interrupts indicated in the Interrupt Status Register [ISR; 0xD0]. Therefore, the MC can poll the ISR or enable interrupts to determine if a status update has occurred. Real-time receive status (REOC, RIND, and RSBIT) register updates are suspended w hen the receive framer reports an OUT_OF_SYNC state [RSTATUS_2; 0xE6].

4.11 Receive/Transmit Status
The number of signaling bits is set in TCM2_2 address [0x87]. The LSB of the signaling
bits is always in the LSB of the RSFIFO, as illustrated in Figure 4-4.
Up to 48 bytes of receive signaling information are loaded into RSFIFO_I by the receiver after every RD_RSIG interrupt, provided that the framer is not in an OUT_OF_SYNC state. RSFIFO_I[1] is received first. Up to 48 bytes of receive signaling information can be read from RSFIFO_O by the MC after it receives the RD_RSIG interrupt. The MC has 6 ms, 3 ms, 2 ms, or 1 ms (depending on the EXTRA_SIG_UPDATE configuration in the CMD_1 register [0x3C0.3:4]) from the current RD_RSIG to the next RD_RSIG to read 48, 24, 16, or 8 RSFIFO_O entries. RSFIFO_I is loaded into RSFIFO_O at every RD_RSIG interrupt, before RSFIFO_I is modified by the receiver.
MC access to RSFIFO_O is provided b y first writing to RSFIFO_PTR_RST [0xC6] to reset the read pointer, and then reading up to 48 entries sequentially. RSFIFO_O[1] is read first. Bt8954 increments the RSFIFO_O read pointer after read cycle. The pointer wraps around to point to first entry (RSFIFO_O[1]) after the 48th entry (RSFIFO_O[48]) has been read. Therefore, the RSFIFO_O read pointer needs to be reset only once (that is, during initialization) if 48 entries are read every 6 ms.
For testing purposes, MC write access to RSFIFO_I is provided by first writing to RSFIFO_PTR_RST [0xC6] to reset the RSFIFO_I write pointer, and then writing up to 48 entries sequentially. RSFIFO_I[1] is written first.
Bt8954 increments the RSFIFO_I write pointer after each write access to the RSFIFO’s address. The pointer wraps around to point to the first entry (RSFIFO_I[1]) after the 48th entry (RSFIFO_I[48]) has been written.
Also, for testing, writing any value to the UPDATE_RSFIFO_O register [0xDC] initiates copying RSFIFO_I into RSFIFO_O, provided the TEST_RSFIFO bit in RCMD_2 [0x91] is set.
