DESCRIPTION
The DS21372 Bit Error Rate Tester (BERT) is a software programmable test pattern generator, receiver,
and analyzer capable of meeting the most stringent error performance requirements of digital
transmission facilities. Two categories of test pattern generation (Pseudo-random and Repetitive)
conform to CCITT/ITU O.151, O.152, O.153, and O.161 standards. The DS21372 operates at clock rates
ranging from DC to 20 MHz. This wide range of operating frequency allows the DS21372 to be used in
existing and future test equipment, transmission facilities, switching equipment, multiplexers, DACs,
Routers, Bridges, CSUs, DSUs, and CPE equipment.
The DS21372 user-programmable pattern registers provide the unique ability to generate loopback
patterns required for T1, Fractional-T1, Smart Jack, and other test procedures. Hence the DS21372 can
initiate the loopback, run the test, check for errors, and finally deactivate the loopback.
The DS21372 consists of four functional blocks: the pattern generator, pattern detector, error counter, and
control interface. The DS21372 can be programmed to generate any pseudorandom pattern with length up
to 232-1 bits (see Table 5, Note 9) or any user programmable bit pattern from 1 to 32 bits in length. Logic
inputs can be used to configure the DS21372 for applications requiring gap clocking such as FractionalT1, Switched-56, DDS, normal framing requirements, and per-channel test procedures. In addition, the
DS21372 can insert single or 10-1 to 10-7 bit errors to verify equipment operation and connectivity.

GENERAL OPERATION
1.1
PATTERN GENERATION
The DS21372 is programmed to generate a particular test pattern by programming the following registers:
-
Pattern Set Registers (PSR)
Pattern Length Register (PLR)
Polynomial Tap Register (PTR)
Pattern Control Register (PCR)
Error Insertion Register (EIR)
Please see Tables 4 and 5 for examples of how to program these registers in order to generate some
standard test patterns. Once these registers are programmed, the user will then toggle the TL (Transmit
Load) bit or pin to load the pattern into the onboard pattern generation circuitry and the pattern will begin
appearing at the TDATA pin.
1.2
PATTERN SYNCHRONIZATION
The DS21372 expects to receive the same pattern that it transmitted. The synchronizer examines the data
at RDATA and looks for characteristics of the transmitted pattern. The user can control the onboard
synchronizer with the Sync Enable and Resync bits in the Pattern Control Register.
In pseudorandom mode, the received pattern is tested to see if it fits the polynomial generator as defined
in the transmit side. For pseudorandom patterns, only the original pattern and an all ones pattern or an all
0s pattern will satisfy this test. Synchronization in pseudorandom pattern mode should be qualified by
using the RA1 and RA0 indicators in the Status Register. Synchronization is declared after 34 + n bits are
received without error, where n is the exponent in the polynomial from Table 4. Once in synchronization
(SR.0 = 1) any deviation from this pattern will be counted by the Bit Error Count Register.
In repetitive pattern mode a received pattern of the same length as being transmitted will satisfy this test.
Synchronization in repetitive pattern mode should be qualified by using the RA1 and RA0 indicators in
the Status Register and examining the Pattern Receive Register (PRR0--3). See section 10 for an
explanation of the Pattern Receive Register. Once in synchronization (SR.0 = 1) any deviation from this
pattern will be counted by the Bit Error Count Register.
1.3
BER CALCULATION
Users can calculate the actual Bit Error Rate (BER) of the digital communications channel by reading the
bit error count out of the Bit Error Count Register (BECR) and reading the bit count out of the Bit Count
Register (BCR) and then dividing the BECR value with the BCR value. The user has total control over
the integration period of the measurement. The LC (Load Count) bit or pin is used to set the integration
period.
1.4
GENERATING ERRORS
Via the Error Insertion Register (EIR), the user can intentionally inject a particular error rate into the
transmitted data stream. Injecting errors allows users to stress communication links and to check the
functionality of error monitoring equipment along the path.

POWER-UP SEQUENCE
On power-up, the registers in the DS21372 will be in a random state. The user must program all the
internal registers to a known state before proper operation can be insured.

PARALLEL CONTROL INTERFACE
The DS21372 is controlled via a multiplexed bi-directional address/data bus by an external
microcontroller or microprocessor. The DS21372 can operate with either Intel or Motorola bus timing
configurations. If the BTS pin is tied low, Intel timing will be selected; if tied high, Motorola timing will
be selected. All Motorola bus signals are listed in parenthesis (). See the timing diagrams in the A.C.
Electrical Characteristics for more details. The multiplexed bus on the DS21372 saves pins because the
address information and data information share the same signal paths. The addresses are presented to the
pins in the first portion of the bus cycle and data will be transferred on the pins during second portion of
the bus cycle. Addresses must be valid prior to the falling edge of ALE(AS), at which time the DS21372
latches the address from the AD0 to AD7 pins. Valid write data must be present and held stable during
the later portion of the DS or WR pulses. In a read cycle, the DS21372 outputs a byte of data during the
latter portion of the DS or RD pulses. The read cycle is terminated and the bus returns to a high
impedance state as RD transitions high in Intel timing or as DS transitions low in Motorola timing. The
DS21372 can also be easily connected to non-multiplexed buses. RCLK and TCLK are used to update
counters and load transmit and receive pattern registers. At slow clock rates, sufficient time must be
allowed for these port operations.
3.
PATTERN SET REGISTERS
The Pattern Set Registers (PSR) are loaded each time a new pattern (whether it be pseudorandom or
repetitive) is to be generated. When a pseudorandom pattern is generated, all four PSRs must be loaded
with FF Hex. When a repetitive pattern is to be created, the four PSRs are loaded with the pattern that is
to be repeated. Please see Tables 4 and 5 for some programming examples.

BIT COUNT REGISTERS
The Bit Count Registers (BCR3 to BCR0) comprise a 32-bit count of bits (actually RCLK cycles)
received at RDATA. BC31 is the MSB of the 32-bit count. The bit counter increments for each cycle of
RCLK when input pin RDIS is low. The bit counter is disabled during loss of SYNC. The Status Register
bit BCOF is set when this 32-bit register overflows. Upon an overflow condition, the user must clear the
BCR by either toggling the LC bit or pin. The DS21372 latches the bit count into the BCR registers and
clears the internal bit count when either the PCR.4 bit or the LC input pin toggles from low to high. The
bit count and bit error count (available via the BECRs) are used by an external processor to compute the
BER performance on a loop or channel basis.

BIT ERROR COUNT REGISTERS
The Bit Error Count Registers (BECR3 to BECR0) comprise a 32-bit count of bits received in error at
RDATA. The bit error counter is disabled during loss of SYNC. BEC31 is the MSB of the 32-bit count.
The Status Register bit BECOF is set when this 32-bit register overflows. Upon an overflow condition,
the user must clear the BECR by either toggling the LC bit or pin. The DS21372 latches the bit error
count into the BECR registers and clears the internal bit error count when either the PCR.4 bit or the LC
input pin toggles from low to high. The bit count (available via the BCRs) and bit error count are used by
an external processor to compute the BER performance on a loop or channel basis.

PATTERN RECEIVE REGISTERS
The Pattern Receive Register (PRR) provides access to the data patterns received at RDATA. The
operation of these registers depends on the synchronization status of the DS21372. Asserting the RL bit
(PCR.3) or pin during an out-of -sync condition (SR.0 = 0) will latch the previous 32 bits of data received
at RDATA into the PRR registers. When the DS21372 is in sync (SR.0 = 1) asserting RL will latch the
pattern that to which the device has established synchronization. Since the receiver has no knowledge of
the start or end of the pattern, the data in the PRR registers will have no particular alignment. As an
example, if the receiver has synchronized to the pattern 00100110, PRR1 may report 10011000,
11000100 or any rotation thereof. Once synchronization is established, bit errors cannot be viewed in the
PRR registers.

STATUS REGISTER AND INTERRUPT MASK REGISTER
The Status Register (SR) contains information on the current real time status of the DS21372. When a
particular event has occurred, the appropriate bit in the register will be set to a 1. All of the bits in these
registers (except for the SYNC bit) operate in a latched fashion. This means that if an event occurs and a
bit is set to a 1 in any of the registers, it will remain set until the user reads that bit. For the BED, BCOF,
and BECOF status bits, they will be cleared when read and will not be set again until the event has
occurred again. For RLOS, RA0, and RA1 status bits, they will be cleared when read if the condition no
longer persists.
The SR register has the unique ability to initiate a hardware interrupt via the INT pin. Each of the alarms
and events in the SR can be either masked or unmasked from the interrupt pins via the Interrupt Mask
Register (IMR).
