áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER NOVEMBER 2003 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The XRT75L04D is a four-channel fully integrated Line Interface Unit (LIU) with Sonet Desynchronizer for E3/DS3/STS-1 applications. It incorporates four independent Receivers, Transmitters and Jitter Attenuators in a single 176 pin QFP package. Each channel of the XRT75L04D can be configured to operate in E3 (34.368 MHz), DS3 (44.736 MHz) or STS-1 (51.84 MHz) rates that are independent of each other. Each transmitter can be turned off and tristated for redundancy support and for conserving power. The XRT75L04D’s differential receivers provide high noise interference margin and are able to receive the data over 1000 feet of cable or with up to 12 dB of cable attenuation. The XRT75L04D incorporates an advanced crystalless jitter attenuator per channel that can be selected either in the transmit or receive path. The jitter attenuator performance meets the ETSI TBR-24 and Telcordia GR-499, GR-253 specifications. Also, the jitter attenuator can be used for clock smoothing in SONET STS-1 to DS3 de-mapping. The XRT75L04D provides both Serial Microprocessor Interface as well as Hardware mode for programming and control. The XRT75L04D supports local, remote and digital loop-backs. The XRT75L04D also contains an onboard Pseudo Random Binary Sequence (PRBS) generator and detector with the ability to insert and detect single bit error.

Each channel can be independently configured either by Hardware Mode or by Host Mode to support E3, DS3 or STS-1 modes. A detailed operation of each section is described below. Each channel consists of the following functional blocks: 4.0 THE TRANSMITTER SECTION: The Transmitter Section, within each Channel, accepts TTL/CMOS level signals from the Terminal Equipment in selectable data formats. • Convert the CMOS level B3ZS or HDB3 encoded data into pulses with shapes that are compliant with the various industry standard pulse template requirements. Figures 7, 8 and 9 illustrate the pulse template requirements. • Encode the un-encoded NRZ data into either B3ZS format (for DS3 or STS-1) or HDB3 format (for E3) and convert to pulses with shapes and width that are compliant with industry standard pulse template requirements. Figures 7, 8 and 9 illustrate the pulse template requirements. • In Single-Rail or un-encoded Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) mode, data is input via TPOS_n pins while TNEG_n pins must be grounded. The NRZ or Single-Rail mode is selected when the SR/DR input pin is “High” (in Hardware Mode) or bit 0 of channel control register is “1” (in Host Mode). Figure 12 illustrates the Single-Rail or NRZ format. FIGURE 12. SINGLE-RAIL OR NRZ DATA FORMAT (ENCODER AND DECODER ARE ENABLED) Data 1 1 0 TPOS TxClk • In Dual-Rail mode, data is input via TPOS_n and TNEG_n pins. TPOS_n contains positive data and TNEG_n contains negative data. The SR/DR input pin = “Low” (in Hardware Mode) or bit 0 of channel register = “0” (in Host Mode) enables the Dual-Rail mode. Figure 13 illustrates the Dual-Rail data format. FIGURE 13. DUAL-RAIL DATA FORMAT (ENCODER AND DECODER ARE DISABLED) Data 1 1 0 TPOS TNEG TxClk 4.1 TRANSMIT CLOCK: The Transmit Clock applied via TxClk_n pins, for the selected data rate (for E3 = 34.368 MHz, DS3 = 44.736 MHz or STS-1 = 51.84 MHz), is duty cycle corrected by the internal PLL circuit to provide a 50% duty cycle clock to the pulse shaping circuit. This allows a 30% to 70% duty cycle Transmit Clock to be supplied. 26 áç REV. 1.0.1 4.2 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER B3ZS/HDB3 ENCODER: When the Single-Rail (NRZ) data format is selected, the Encoder Block encodes the data into either B3ZS format (for either DS3 or STS-1) or HDB3 format (for E3). 4.2.1 B3ZS Encoding: An example of B3ZS encoding is shown in Figure 14. If the encoder detects an occurrence of three consecutive zeros in the data stream, it is replaced with either B0V or 00V, where ‘B’ refers to Bipolar pulse that is compliant with the Alternating polarity requirement of the AMI (Alternate Mark Inversion) line code and ‘V’ refers to a Bipolar Violation (e.g., a bipolar pulse that violates the AMI line code). The substitution of B0V or 00V is made so that an odd number of bipolar pulses exist between any two consecutive violation (V) pulses. This avoids the introduction of a DC component into the line signal. FIGURE 14.

If the HDB3 encoder detects an occurrence of four consecutive zeros in the data stream, then the four zeros are substituted with either 000V or B00V pattern. The substitution code is made in such a way that an odd number of bipolar (B) pulses exist between any consecutive V pulses. This avoids the introduction of DC component into the analog signal.

When Dual-Rail data format is selected, the B3ZS/HDB3 Encoder is automatically disabled. 2. In Dual-Rail format, the Bipolar Violations in the incoming data stream is converted to valid data pulses. 3. Encoder and Decoder is enabled only in Single-Rail mode. 27 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER 4.3 REV. 1.0.1 TRANSMIT PULSE SHAPER: The Transmit Pulse Shaper converts the B3ZS encoded digital pulses into a single analog Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) pulse that meet the industry standard mask template requirements for STS-1 and DS3. See Figures 8 and 9. For E3 mode, the pulse shaper converts the HDB3 encoded pulses into a single full amplitude square shaped pulse with very little slope. This is illustrated in Figure 7. The Pulse Shaper Block also includes a Transmit Build Out Circuit, which can either be disabled or enabled by setting the TxLEV_n input pin “High” or “Low” (in Hardware Mode) or setting the TxLEV_n bit to “1” or “0” in the control register (in Host Mode). For DS3/STS-1 rates, the Transmit Build Out Circuit is used to shape the transmit waveform that ensures that transmit pulse template requirements are met at the Cross-Connect system. The distance between the transmitter output and the Cross-Connect system can be between 0 to 450 feet. For E3 rate, since the output pulse template is measured at the secondary of the transformer and since there is no Cross-Connect system pulse template requirements, the Transmit Build Out Circuit is always disabled. 4.3.1 Guidelines for using Transmit Build Out Circuit: If the distance between the transmitter and the DSX3 or STSX-1, Cross-Connect system, is less than 225 feet, enable the Transmit Build Out Circuit by setting the TxLEV_n input pin “Low” (in Hardware Mode) or setting the TxLEV_n control bit to “0” (in Host Mode). If the distance between the transmitter and the DSX3 or STSX-1 is greater than 225 feet, disable the Transmit Build Out Circuit. 4.3.2 Interfacing to the line: The differential line driver increases the transmit waveform to appropriate level and drives into the 75Ω load as shown in Figure 6. 4.4 Transmit Drive Monitor: This feature is used for monitoring the transmit line for occurrence of fault conditions such as a short circuit on the line or a defective line driver. To activate this function, connect MTIP_n pins to the TTIP_n lines via a 270 Ω resistor and MRing_n pins to TRing_n lines via 270 Ω resistor as shown in Figure 16. FIGURE 16.

When no transitions on the line are detected for 128 ± 32 TxClk_1 periods, the DMO_1 pin will toggle “High”. The DMO_1 and the DMOIS_1 bits also will be set in the control register. When the transitions are detected, the DMO_1 pin will toggle back to normal state. The DMO_1 bit also will be cleared. However, the DMOIS_1 bit will remain set until read. If the DMOIE_1 bit has been set, an interrupt will be generated. Case 2: MTIP_1 connected to TTIP_1 MRING_1 connected to TRING_1 TxMON_1 (bit) = 1 This has the same effect as in Case 1. It is redundant to use the MTIP_1/MRING_1 pins in this case. Case 3: MTIP_1 not connected to TTIP_1 MRING_1 not connected to TRING_1 TxMON_1 (bit) = 1 When no transitions on the TTIP_1/TRING_1 are detected for 128 ± 32 TxClk_1 periods, the DMO_1 pin will toggle “High”. The DMO_1 and the DMOIS_1 bits also will be set in the control register. When the transitions are detected, the DMO_1 pin will toggle back to normal state. The DMO_1 bit also will be cleared. However, the DMOIS_1 bit will remain set until read. If the DMOIE_1 bit has been set, an interrupt will be generated. Please note that the MTIP_1/MRING_1 pins cannot be used to monitor any other adjacent channels. Case 4: MTIP_m not connected to TTIP_m +n where m = 0,1...3 and n = 0,1...3 MRING_m not connected to TRING_m +n where m = 0,1...3 and n = 0,1...3 TxMON_n (bit) = 0 In this case, with external connection, any of the MTIP/MRING can be connected to any of the adjacent channel to be monitored. Please note that if TxMON_n bit is set, then monitoring will be done for that channel n. By toggling the TxMON_n bit from 0 to 1, the monitoring can be switched between self-monitoring to monitoring any adajcent channels. NOTE: The Drive Monitor Circuit is only for diagnostic purpose and does not have to be used to operate the transmitter. 4.5 Transmitter Section On/Off: The transmitter section of each channel can either be turned on or off. To turn on the transmitter, set the input pin TxON_n to “High” (in Hardware Mode) or write a “1” to the TxON_n control bits (in Host Mode) with TxON_n pins tied “High”. When the transmitter is turned off, TTIP_n and TRing_n are tri-stated. NOTES: 1. This feature provides support for Redundancy. 2. If the XRT75L04D is configured in Host mode, to permit a system designed for redundancy to quickly shut-off the defective line card and turn on the back-up line card, writing a “1” to the TxON_n control bits transfers the control to TxON_n pins. 29 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 5.0 THE RECEIVER SECTION: This section describes the detailed operation of the various blocks in the receiver. The receiver recovers the TTL/CMOS level data from the incoming bipolar B3ZS or HDB3 encoded input pulses. 5.1 AGC/Equalizer: The Adaptive Gain Control circuit amplifies the incoming analog signal and compensates for the various flat losses and also for the loss at one-half symbol rate. The AGC has a dynamic range of 30 dB. The Equalizer restores the integrity of the signal and compensates for the frequency dependent attenuation of up to 900 feet of coaxial cable (1300 feet for E3). The Equalizer also boosts the high frequency content of the signal to reduce Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) so that the slicer slices the signal at 50% of peak voltage to generate Positive and Negative data. The Equalizer can either be “IN” or “OUT” by setting the REQEN_n pin “High” or “Low” (in Hardware Mode) or setting the REQEN_n control bit to “1” or “0” (in Host Mode). RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EQUALIZER SETTINGS: The Equalizer has two gain settings to provide optimum equalization. In the case of normally shaped DS3/ STS-1 pulses (pulses that meet the template requirements) that has been driven through 0 to 900 feet of cable, the Equalizer can be left “IN” by setting the REQEN_n pin to “High” (in Hardware Mode) or setting the REQEN_n control bit to “1” (in Host Mode). However, for square-shaped pulses such as E3 or for DS3/STS-1 high pulses (that does not meet the pulse template requirements), it is recommended that the Equalizer be left “OUT” for cable length less than 300 feet by setting the REQEN_n pin “Low” (in Hardware Mode) or by setting the REQEN_n control bit to “0” (in Host Mode).This would help to prevent over-equalization of the signal and thus optimize the performance in terms of better jitter transfer characteristics. NOTE: The results of extensive testing indicates that even when the Equalizer was left “IN” (REQEN_n = “HIGH”), regardless of the cable length, the integrity of the E3 signal was restored properly over 0 to 12 dB cable loss at Industrial Temperature. The Equalizer also contain an additional 20 dB gain stage to provide the line monitoring capability of the resistively attenuated signals which may have 20dB flat loss. This capability can be turned on by writing a “1” to the RxMON_n bits in the control register or by setting the RxMON pin (pin 69) “High”. 5.1.1 Interference Tolerance: For E3 mode, ITU-T G.703 Recommendation specifies that the receiver be able to recover error-free clock and data in the presence of a sinusoidal interfering tone signal. For DS3 and STS-1 modes, the same recommendation is being used. Figure 17 shows the configuration to test the interference margin for DS3/ STS1. Figure 18 shows the set up for E3. FIGURE 17.

The Clock Recovery PLL can be in one of the following two modes: TRAINING MODE: In the absence of input signals at RTIP_n and RRing_n pins, or when the frequency difference between the recovered line clock signal and the reference clock applied on the ExClk_n input pins exceed 0.5%, a Loss of Lock condition is declared by toggling RLOL_n output pin “High” (in Hardware Mode) or setting the RLOL_n bit to “1” in the control registers (in Host Mode). Also, the clock output on the RxClk_n pins are the same as the reference clock applied on ExClk_n pins. DATA/CLOCK RECOVERY MODE: In the presence of input line signals on the RTIP_n and RRing_n input pins and when the frequency difference between the recovered clock signal and the reference clock signal is less than 0.5%, the clock that is output on the RxClk_n out pins is the Recovered Clock signal. 5.3 B3ZS/HDB3 Decoder: The decoder block takes the output from clock and data recovery block and decodes the B3ZS (for DS3 or STS-1) or HDB3 (for E3) encoded line signal and detects any coding errors or excessive zeros in the data stream. 31 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 Whenever the input signal violates the B3ZS or HDB3 coding sequence for bipolar violation or contains three (for B3ZS) or four (for HDB3) or more consecutive zeros, an active “High” pulse is generated on the RLCV_n output pins to indicate line code violation. NOTE: In Single- Rail (NRZ) mode, the decoder is bypassed. 5.4 LOS (Loss of Signal) Detector: 5.4.1 DS3/STS-1 LOS Condition: A Digital Loss of SIgnal (DLOS) condition occurs when a string of 175 ± 75 consecutive zeros occur on the line. When the DLOS condition occurs, the DLOS_n bit is set to “1” in the status control register. DLOS condition is cleared when the detected average pulse density is greater than 33% for 175 ± 75 pulses. Analog Loss of Signal (ALOS) condition occurs when the amplitude of the incoming line signal is below the threshold as shown in the Table 10.The status of the ALOS condition is reflected in the ALOS_n status control register. RLOS is the logical OR of the DLOS and ALOS states. When the RLOS condition occurs the RLOS_n output pin is toggled “High” and the RLOS_n bit is set to “1” in the status control register. TABLE 10: THE ALOS (ANALOG LOS) DECLARATION AND CLEARANCE THRESHOLDS FOR A GIVEN SETTING OF REQEN (DS3 AND STS-1 APPLICATIONS) APPLICATION REQEN SETTING SIGNAL LEVEL TO DECLARE ALOS SIGNAL LEVEL TO CLEAR ALOS DS3 0 <17 mV >70 mV 1 <20 mV >90 mV 0 <20 mV >90 mV 1 <25 mV >115 mV STS-1 DISABLING ALOS/DLOS DETECTION: For debugging purposes it is useful to disable the ALOS and/or DLOS detection. Writing a “1” to both ALOSDIS_n and DLOSDIS_n bits disables the LOS detection on a per channel basis. 5.4.2 E3 LOS Condition: If the level of incoming line signal drops below the threshold as described in the ITU-T G.775 standard, the LOS condition is detected. Loss of signal level is defined to be between 15 and 35 dB below the normal level. If the signal drops below 35 dB for 175 ± 75 consecutive pulse periods, LOS condition is declared. This is illustrated in Figure 19. 32 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER FIGURE 19.

The LOS condition is cleared within 10 to 255 UI after restoration of the incoming line signal. Figure 20 shows the LOS declaration and clearance conditions. FIGURE 20.

The data on the RPOS_n and RNEG_n pins can be forced to zero by pulling the LOSMUT pin “High” (in Hardware Mode) or by setting the LOSMUT_n bits in the individual channel control register to “1” (in Host Mode). NOTE: When the LOS condition is cleared, the recovered data is output on RPOS_n and RNEG_n pins. 34 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER 6.0 JITTER: There are three fundamental parameters that describe circuit performance relative to jitter: • Jitter Tolerance (Receiver) • Jitter Transfer (Receiver/Transmitter) • Jitter Generation 6.1 JITTER TOLERANCE - RECEIVER: Jitter tolerance is a measure of how well a Clock and Data Recovery unit can successfully recover data in the presence of various forms of jitter. It is characterized by the amount of jitter required to produce a specified bit error rate. The tolerance depends on the frequency content of the jitter. Jitter Tolerance is measured as the jitter amplitude over a jitter spectrum for which the clock and data recovery unit achieves a specified bit error rate (BER). To measure the jitter tolerance as shown in Figure 21, jitter is introduced by the sinusoidal modulation of the serial data bit sequence. FIGURE 21. JITTER TOLERANCE MEASUREMENTS Pattern Pattern Generator Generator Data Error Detector DUT XRT75L04D Clock Modulation Freq. FREQ Synthesizer Input jitter tolerance requirements are specified in terms of compliance with jitter mask which is represented as a combination of points.Each point corresponds to a minimum amplitude of sinusoidal jitter at a given jitter frequency. 6.1.1 DS3/STS-1 Jitter Tolerance Requirements: Bellcore GR-499 CORE, Issue 1, December 1995 specifies the minimum requirement of jitter tolerance for Category I and Category II. The jitter tolerance requirement for Category II is the most stringent. Figure 22 shows the jitter tolerance curve as per GR-499 specification. 35 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 JITTER AMPLITUDE (UI ) pp FIGURE 22.

There are two distinct characteristics in jitter transfer: jitter gain (jitter peaking) defined as the highest ratio above 0dB; and jitter transfer bandwidth.The overall jitter transfer bandwidth is controlled by a low bandwidth loop, typically using a voltage-controller crystal oscillator (VCXO). The jitter transfer function is a ratio between the jitter output and jitter input for a component, or system often expressed in dB. A negative dB jitter transfer indicates the element removed jitter. A positive dB jitter transfer indicates the element added jitter.A zero dB jitter transfer indicates the element had no effect on jitter. Table 12 shows the jitter transfer characteristics and/or jitter attenuation specifications for various data rates: TABLE 12: JITTER TRANSFER SPECIFICATION/REFERENCES E3 DS3 STS-1 ETSI TBR-24 GR-499 CORE section 7.3.2 Category I and Category II GR-253 CORE section 5.6.2.1 The above specifications can be met only with a jitter attenuator that supports E3/DS3/STS-1 rates. 6.3 JITTER GENERATION: Jitter Generation is defined as the process whereby jitter appears at the output port of the digital equipment in the absence of applied input jitter. Jitter Generation is measured by sending jitter free data to the clock and data recovery circuit and measuring the amount of jitter on the output clock or the re-timed data. Since this is essentially a noise measurement, it requires a definition of bandwidth to be meaningful. The bandwidth is set according to the data rate. In general, the jitter is measured over a band of frequencies. 6.4 Jitter Attenuator: An advanced crystal-less jitter attenuator per channel is included in the XRT75L04D. The jitter attenuator requires no external crystal nor high-frequency reference clock. In Host mode, by clearing or setting the JATx/Rx_n bits in the channel control registers selects the jitter attenuator either in the Receive or Transmit path on per channel basis. In Hardware mode, JATx/Rx pin selects globally all three channels either in Receive or Transmit path. The FIFO size can be either 16-bit,32-bit or 128-bit. In HOST mode, the bits JA0_n and JA1_n can be set to appropriate combination to select the different FIFO sizes or to disable the Jitter Attenuator on a per channel basis. In Hardware mode, appropriate setting of the pins JA0 and JA1 selects the different FIFO sizes or disables the Jitter Attenuator for all three channels. Data is clocked into the FIFO with the associated clock signal (TxClk or RxClk) and clocked out of the FIFO with the dejittered clock. When the FIFO is within two bits 37 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 of overflowing or underflowing, the FIFO limit status bit, FL_n is set to “1” in the Alarm status register. Reading this bit clears the FIFO and resets the bit into default state. NOTE: It is recommended to select the 16-bit FIFO for delay-sensitive applications as well as for removing smaller amounts of jitter. Table 13 specifies the jitter transfer mask requirements for various data rates: TABLE 13: JITTER TRANSFER PASS MASKS RATE (KBITS) MASK F1 (HZ) F2 (HZ) F3 (HZ) F4 (KHZ) A1(dB) A2(dB) 34368 G.823 ETSI-TBR-24 100 300 3K 800K 0.5 -19.5 44736 GR-499, Cat I GR-499, Cat II GR-253 CORE 10 10 10 10k 56.6k 40 - 15k 300k 15k 0.1 0.1 0.1 - 51840 GR-253 CORE 10 40k - 400k 0.1 - The jitter attenuator in the XRT75L04D meets the latest jitter attenuation specifications and/or jitter transfer characteristics as shown in the Figure 24.

The interface is generic and is designed to support the common microprocessors/microcontrollers. The XRT75L04D operates in Host mode when the HOST/HW pin is tied “High”. The serial interface includes a serial clock (SClk), serial data input (SDI), serial data output (SDO), chip select (CS) and interrupt output (INT). The serial interface timing is shown in Figure 11. The active low interrupt output signal (INT pin) indicates alarm conditions like LOS, DMO and FL to the processor. When the XRT75L04D is configured in Host mode, the following input pins,TxLEV_n, TAOS_n, RLB_n, LLB_n, E3_n, STS-1/DS3_n, REQEN_n, JATx/Rx, JA0 and JA1 are disabled and must be connected to ground. The Table 14 below illustrates the functions of the shared pins in either Host mode or in Hardware mode. TABLE 14: FUNCTIONS OF SHARED PINS PIN NUMBER IN HOST MODE IN HARDWARE MODE 86 CS RxClkINV 88 SClk TxClkINV 87 SDI RxON 85 SDO RxMON 84 INT LOSMUT NOTE: While configured in Host mode, the TxON_n input pins will be active if the TxON_n bits in the control register are set to “1”, and can be used to turn on and off the transmit output drivers. This permits a system designed for redundancy to quickly switch out a defective line card and switch-in the backup line card.

This feature is only available in Host mode. With the PRBSEN_n bit = “1”, the transmitter 47 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 will send out PRBS of 223-1 in E3 rate or 215-1 in STS-1/DS3 rate. At the same time, the receiver PRBS detector is also enabled. When the correct PRBS pattern is detected by the receiver, the RNEG/LCV pin will go “Low” to indicate PRBS synchronization has been achieved. When the PRBS detector is not in sync the PRBSLS bit will be set to “1” and RNEG/LCV pin will go “High”. With the PRBS mode enabled, the user can also insert a single bit error by toggling “INSPRBS” bit. This is done by writing a “1” to INSPRBS bit. The receiver at RNEG/LCV pin will pulse “High” for one RxClk cycle for every bit error detected. Any subsequent single bit error insertion must be done by first writing a “0” to INSPRBS bit and followed by a “1”. Figure 25 shows the status of RNEG/LCV pin when the XRT75L04D is configured in PRBS mode. NOTE: In PRBS mode, the device is forced to operate in Single-Rail Mode. FIGURE 25. PRBS MODE RClk SYNC LOSS RNEG/LCV PRBS SYNC 8.2 Single Bit Error LOOPBACKS: The XRT75L04D offers three loopback modes for diagnostic purposes. In Hardware mode, the loopback modes are selected via the RLB_n and LLB_n pins. In Host mode, the RLB_n and LLB_n bits n the Channel control registers select the loopback modes. 8.2.1 ANALOG LOOPBACK: In this mode, the transmitter outputs (TTIP_n and TRING_n) are connected internally to the receiver inputs (RTIP_n and RRING_n) as shown in Figure 26. Data and clock are output at RCLK_n, RPOS_n and RNEG_n pins for the corresponding transceiver. Analog loopback exercises most of the functional blocks of the device including the jitter attenuator which can be selected in either the transmit or receive path. XRT75L04D can be configured in Analog Loopback either in Hardware mode via the LLB_n and RLB_n pins or in Host mode via LLB_n and RLB_n bits in the channel control registers. NOTES: 1. In the Analog loopback mode, data is also output via TTIP_n and TRING_n pins. 2.

They are also pin to pin compatible with each other. However, the Jitter Attenuators within the D-SYNC have some enhancements over and above those within the non D-SYNC device. The Jitter Attenuator blocks will support all of the modes and features that exist in the non D-SYNC device and in addition they also support a SONET/SDH De-Sync Mode. NOTE: The "D" suffix within the part number stands for "De-Sync". The SONET/SDH De-Sync feature of the Jitter Attenuator blocks permits the user to design a SONET/SDH PTE (Path Terminating Equipment) that will comply with all of the following Intrinsic Jitter and Wander requirements. • For SONET Applications ■ Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements per Telcordia GR-253-CORE (for DS3 Applications) ■ ANSI T1.105.03b-1997 - SONET Jitter at Network Interfaces - DS3 Wander Supplement • For SDH Applications ■ Jitter and Wander Generation Requirements per ITU-T G.783 (for DS3 and E3 Applications) Specifically, if the user designs in the LIU along with a SONET/SDH Mapper IC (which can be realized as either a standard product or as a custom logic solution, in an ASIC or FPGA), then the following can be accomplished. • The Mapper can receive an STS-N or an STM-M signal (which is carrying asynchronously-mapped DS3 and/ or E3 signals) and byte de-interleave this data into N STS-1 or 3*M VC-3 signals • The Mapper will then terminate these STS-1 or VC-3 signals and will de-map out this DS3 or E3 data from the incoming STS-1 SPEs or VC-3s, and output this DS3 or E3 to the DS3/E3 Facility-side towards the LIU • This DS3 or E3 signal (as it is output from these Mapper devices) will contain a large amount of intrinsic jitter and wander due to (1) the process of asynchronously mapping a DS3 or E3 signal into a SONET or SDH signal, (2) the occurrence of Pointer Adjustments within the SONET or SDH signal (transporting these DS3 or E3 signals) as it traverses the SONET/SDH network, and (3) clock gapping. • When the LIU has been configured to operate in the "SONET/SDH De-Sync" Mode, then it will (1) accept this jittery DS3 or E3 clock and data signal from the Mapper device (via the Transmit System-side interface) and (2) through the Jitter Attenuator, the LIU will reduce the Jitter and Wander amplitude within these DS3 or E3 signals such that they (when output onto the line) will comply with the above-mentioned intrinsic jitter and wander specifications. 9.1 BACKGROUND AND DETAILED INFORMATION - SONET DE-SYNC APPLICATIONS This section provides an in-depth discussion on the mechanisms that will cause Jitter and Wander within a DS3 or E3 signal that is being transported across a SONET or SDH Network. A lot of this material is introductory, and can be skipped by the engineer that is already experienced in SONET/SDH designs. In the wide-area network (WAN) in North America it is often necessary to transport a DS3 signal over a long distance (perhaps over a thousand miles) in order to support a particular service. Now rather than realizing this transport of DS3 data, by using over a thousand miles of coaxial cable (interspaced by a large number of DS3 repeaters) a common thing to do is to route this DS3 signal to a piece of equipment (such as a Terminal MUX, which in the "SONET Community" is known as a PTE or Path Terminating Equipment). This Terminal MUX will asynchronously map the DS3 signal into a SONET signal. At this point, the SONET network will now transport this asynchronously mapped DS3 signal from one PTE to another PTE (which is located at the other end of the SONET network). Once this SONET signal arrives at the remote PTE, this DS3 signal will then be extracted from the SONET signal, and will be output to some other DS3 Terminal Equipment for further processing. Similar things are done outside of North America. In this case, this DS3 or E3 signal is routed to a PTE, where it is asynchronously mapped into an SDH signal. This asynchronously mapped DS3 or E3 signal is then transported across the SDH network (from one PTE to the PTE at the other end of the SDH network). Once 52 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER this SDH signal arrives at the remote PTE, this DS3 or E3 signal will then be extracted from the SDH signal, and will be output to some other DS3/E3 Terminal Equipment for further processing. Figure 30 presents an illustration of this approach to transporting DS3 data over a SONET Network FIGURE 30. A SIMPLE ILLUSTRATION OF A DS3 SIGNAL BEING MAPPED INTO AND TRANSPORTED OVER THE SONET NETWORK SONET Network DS3 Data PTE PTE PTE PTE DS3 Data As mentioned above a DS3 or E3 signal will be asynchronously mapped into a SONET or SDH signal and then transported over the SONET or SDH network. At the remote PTE this DS3 or E3 signal will be extracted (or de-mapped) from this SONET or SDH signal, where it will then be routed to DS3 or E3 terminal equipment for further processing. In order to insure that this "de-mapped" DS3 or E3 signal can be routed to any industry-standard DS3 or E3 terminal equipment, without any complications or adverse effect on the network, the Telcordia and ITU-T standard committees have specified some limits on both the Intrinsic Jitter and Wander that may exist within these DS3 or E3 signals as they are de-mapped from SONET/SDH. As a consequence, all PTEs that maps and de-mapped DS3/E3 signals into/from SONET/SDH must be designed such that the DS3 or E3 data that is de-mapped from SONET/SDH by these PTEs must meet these Intrinsic Jitter and Wander requirements. As mentioned above, the LIU can assist the System Designer (of SONET/SDH PTE) by ensuring that their design will meet these Intrinsic Jitter and Wander requirements. This section of the data sheet will present the following information to the user. • Some background information on Mapping DS3/E3 signals into SONET/SDH and de-mapping DS3/E3 signals from SONET/SDH. • A brief discussion on the causes of jitter and wander within a DS3 or E3 signal that mapped into a SONET/ SDH signal, and is transported across the SONET/SDH Network. • A brief review of these Intrinsic Jitter and Wander requirements in both SONET and SDH applications. • A brief review on the Intrinsic Jitter and Wander measurement results (of a de-mapped DS3 or E3 signal) whenever the LIU device is used in a system design. • A detailed discussion on how to design with and configure the LIU device such that the end-system will meet these Intrinsic Jitter and Wander requirements. In a SONET system, the relevant specification requirements for Intrinsic Jitter and Wander (within a DS3 signal that is mapped into and then de-mapped from SONET) are listed below. 53 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 • Telcordia GR-253-CORE Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements for DS3 Applications (Section 5.6), and • ANSI T1.105.03b-1997 - SONET Jitter at Network Interfaces - DS3 Wander Supplement In general, there are three (3) sources of Jitter and Wander within an asynchronously-mapped DS3 signal that the system designer must be aware of. These sources are listed below. • Mapping/De-Mapping Jitter • Pointer Adjustments • Clock Gapping Each of these sources of jitter/wander will be defined and discussed in considerable detail within this Section. In order to accomplish all of this, this particular section will discuss all of the following topics in details. • How DS3 data is mapped into SONET, and how this mapping operation contributes to Jitter and Wander within this "eventually de-mapped" DS3 signal. • How this asynchronously-mapped DS3 data is transported throughout the SONET Network, and how occurrences on the SONET network (such as pointer adjustments) will further contributes to Jitter and Wander within the "eventually de-mapped" DS3 signal. • A review of the Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements (per Telcordia GR-253-CORE) for DS3 applications • A review of the DS3 Wander requirements per ANSI T1.105.03b-1997 • A review of the Intrinsic Jitter and Wander Capabilities of the LIU in a typical system application • An in-depth discussion on how to design with and configure the LIU to permit the system to the meet the above-mentioned Intrinsic Jitter and Wander requirements NOTE: An in-depth discussion on SDH De-Sync Applications will be presented in the next revision of this data sheet. 9.2 MAPPING/DE-MAPPING JITTER/WANDER Mapping/De-Mapping Jitter (or Wander) is defined as that intrinsic jitter (or wander) that is induced into a DS3 signal by the "Asynchronous Mapping" process. This section will discuss all of the following aspects of Mapping/De-Mapping Jitter. • How DS3 data is mapped into an STS-1 SPE • How frequency offsets within either the DS3 signal (being mapped into SONET) or within the STS-1 signal itself contributes to intrinsic jitter/wander within the DS3 signal (being transported via the SONET network). 9.2.1 HOW DS3 DATA IS MAPPED INTO SONET Whenever a DS3 signal is asynchronously mapped into SONET, this mapping is typically accomplished by a PTE accepting DS3 data (from some remote terminal) and then loading this data into certain bit-fields within a given STS-1 SPE (or Synchronous Payload Envelope). At this point, this DS3 signal has now been asynchronously mapped into an STS-1 signal. In most applications, the SONET Network will then take this particular STS-1 signal and will map it into "higher-speed" SONET signals (e.g., STS-3, STS-12, STS-48, etc.) and will then transport this asynchronously mapped DS3 signal across the SONET network, in this manner. As this "asynchronously-mapped" DS3 signal approaches its "destination" PTE, this STS-1 signal will eventually be de-mapped from this STS-N signal. Finally, once this STS-1 signal reaches the "destination" PTE, then this asynchronously-mapped DS3 signal will be extracted from this STS-1 signal. 9.2.1.1 A Brief Description of an STS-1 Frame In order to be able to describe how a DS3 signal is asynchronously mapped into an STS-1 SPE, it is important to define and understand all of the following. • The STS-1 frame structure • The STS-1 SPE (Synchronous Payload Envelope) • Telcordia GR-253-CORE's recommendation on mapping DS3 data into an STS-1 SPE An STS-1 frame is a data-structure that consists of 810 bytes (or 6480 bits). A given STS-1 frame can be viewed as being a 9 row by 90 byte column array (making up the 810 bytes). The frame-repetition rate (for an 54 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER STS-1 frame) is 8000 frames/second. Therefore, the bit-rate for an STS-1 signal is (6480 bits/frame * 8000 frames/sec =) 51.84Mbps. A simple illustration of this SONET STS-1 frame is presented below in Figure 31. FIGURE 31. A SIMPLE ILLUSTRATION OF THE SONET STS-1 FRAME 90 Bytes 9 Rows STS-1 Frame (810 Bytes) Last Byte of the STS-1 Frame First Byte of the STS-1 Frame Figure 31 indicates that the very first byte of a given STS-1 frame (to be transmitted or received) is located in the extreme upper left hand corner of the 90 column by 9 row array, and that the very last byte of a given STS1 frame is located in the extreme lower right-hand corner of the frame structure. Whenever a Network Element transmits a SONET STS-1 frame, it starts by transmitting all of the data, residing within the top row of the STS1 frame structure (beginning with the left-most byte, and then transmitting the very next byte, to the right). After the Network Equipment has completed its transmission of the top or first row, it will then proceed to transmit the second row of data (again starting with the left-most byte, first). Once the Network Equipment has transmitted the last byte of a given STS-1 frame, it will proceed to start transmitting the very next STS-1 frame. The illustration of the STS-1 frame (in Figure 31) is very simplistic, for multiple reasons. One major reason is that the STS-1 frame consists of numerous types of bytes. For the sake of discussion within this data sheet, the STS-1 frame will be described as consisting of the following types (or groups) of bytes. • The Transport Overheads (or TOH) Bytes • The Envelope Capacity Bytes 9.2.1.1.1 The Transport Overhead (TOH) Bytes The Transport Overhead or TOH bytes occupy the very first three (3) byte columns within each STS-1 frame. Figure 32 presents another simple illustration of an STS-1 frame structure. However, in this case, both the TOH and the Envelope Capacity bytes are designated in this Figure. 55 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 FIGURE 32. A SIMPLE ILLUSTRATION OF THE STS-1 FRAME STRUCTURE WITH THE TOH AND THE ENVELOPE CAPACITY BYTES DESIGNATED 90 Bytes 3 Bytes TOH 87 Bytes Envelope Capacity 9 Row Since the TOH bytes occupy the first three byte columns of each STS-1 frame, and since each STS-1 frame consists of nine (9) rows, then we can state that the TOH (within each STS-1 frame) consists of 3 byte columns x 9 rows = 27 bytes. The byte format of the TOH is presented below in Figure 33. 56 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER FIGURE 33.

However, there are a three TOH bytes that are important from the stand-point of this data sheet, and will discussed in considerable detail throughout this document. These are the H1 and H2 (e.g., the SPE Pointer) bytes and the H3 (e.g., the Pointer Action) byte. Figure 34 presents an illustration of the Byte-Format of the TOH within an STS-1 Frame, with the H1, H2 and H3 bytes highlighted. 57 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 FIGURE 34.

For now, we will simply state that the role of these bytes is two-fold. • To permit a given PTE (Path Terminating Equipment) that is receiving an STS-1 data to be able to locate the STS-1 SPE (Synchronous Payload Envelope) within the Envelope Capacity of this incoming STS-1 data stream and, • To inform a given PTE whenever Pointer Adjustment and NDF (New Data Flag) events occur within the incoming STS-1 data-stream. 9.2.1.1.2 The Envelope Capacity Bytes within an STS-1 Frame In general, the Envelope Capacity Bytes are any bytes (within an STS-1 frame) that exist outside of the TOH bytes. In short, the Envelope Capacity contains the STS-1 SPE (Synchronous Payload Envelope). In fact, every single byte that exists within the Envelope Capacity also exists within the STS-1 SPE. The only difference that exists between the "Envelope Capacity" as defined in Figure 33 and Figure 34 above and the STS-1 SPE is that the Envelope Capacity is aligned with the STS-1 framing boundaries and the TOH bytes; whereas the STS-1 SPE is NOT aligned with the STS-1 framing boundaries, nor the TOH bytes. The STS-1 SPE is an "87 byte column x 9 row" data-structure (which is the exact same size as is the Envelope Capacity) that is permitted to "float" within the "Envelope Capacity". As a consequence, the STS-1 SPE (within an STS-1 data-stream) will typically straddle across an STS-1 frame boundary. 9.2.1.1.3 The Byte Structure of the STS-1 SPE As mentioned above, the STS-1 SPE is an 87 byte column x 9 row structure. The very first column within the STS-1 SPE consists of some overhead bytes which are known as the "Path Overhead" (or POH) bytes. The remaining portions of the STS-1 SPE is available for "user" data. The Byte Structure of the STS-1 SPE is presented below in Figure 35. 58 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER FIGURE 35. ILLUSTRATION OF THE BYTE STRUCTURE OF THE STS-1 SPE 87 Bytes 1 Byte 9 Rows J1 B3 C2 G1 F2 H4 Z3 Z4 Z5 86 Bytes Payload (or User) Data In general, the role/purpose of the POH bytes is to fulfill the following functions. • To support error detection within the STS-1 SPE • To support the transmission of various alarm conditions such as RDI-P (Path - Remote Defect Indicator) and REI-P (Path - Remote Error Indicator) • To support the transmission and reception of "Path Trace" Messages The role of the POH bytes is beyond the scope of this data sheet and will not be discussed any further. 9.2.1.2 Mapping DS3 data into an STS-1 SPE Now that we have defined the STS-1 SPE, we can now describe how a DS3 signal is mapped into an STS-1 SPE. As mentioned above, the STS-1 SPE is basically an 87 byte column x 9 row structure of data. The very first byte column (e.g., in all 9 bytes) consists of the POH (Path Overhead) bytes. All of the remaining bytes within the STS-1 SPE is simply referred to as "user" or "payload" data because this is the portion of the STS-1 signal that is used to transport "user data" from one end of the SONET network to the other. Telcordia GR253-CORE specifies the approach that one must use to asynchronously map DS3 data into an STS-1 SPE. In short, this approach is presented below in Figure 36. 59 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 FIGURE 36.

In this case, the STS-1 SPE bit-format is expressed purely in the form of "bit-types" and "numbers of bits within each of these types of bits". If one studies this figure closely he/she will notice that this is the same "87 byte column x 9 row" structure that we have been talking about when defining the STS-1 SPE. However, in this figure, the "user-data" field is now defined and is said to consist of five (5) different types of bits. Each of these bit-types play a role when asynchronously mapping a DS3 signal into an STS-1 SPE. Each of these types of bits are listed and described below. Fixed Stuff Bits Fixed Stuff bits are simply "space-filler" bits that simply occupy space within the STS-1 SPE. These bit-fields have no functional role other than "space occupation". Telcordia GR-253-CORE does not define any particular value that these bits should be set to. Each of the 9 rows, within the STS-1 SPE will contain 59 of these "fixed stuff" bits. DS3 Data Bits The DS3 Data-Bits are (as its name implies) used to transport the DS3 data-bits within the STS-1 SPE. If the STS-1 SPE is transporting a framed DS3 data-stream, then these DS3 Data bits will carry both the "DS3 payload data" and the "DS3 overhead bits". Each of the 9 rows, within the STS-1 SPE will contain 621 of these "DS3 Data bits". This means that each STS-1 SPE contains 5,589 of these DS3 Data bit-fields. Stuff Opportunity Bits The "Stuff" Opportunity bits will function as either a "stuff" (or junk) bit, or it will carry a DS3 data-bit. The decision as to whether to have a "Stuff Opportunity" bit transport a "DS3 data-bit" or a "stuff" bit depends upon the "timing differences" between the DS3 data that is being mapped into the STS-1 SPE and the timing source that is driving the STS-1 circuitry within the PTE. As will be described later on, these "Stuff Opportunity" Bits play a very important role in "frequency-justifying" the DS3 data that is being mapped into the STS-1 SPE. These "Stuff Opportunity" bits also play a critical role in inducing Intrinsic Jitter and Wander within the DS3 signal (as it is de-mapped by the remote PTE). Each of the 9 rows, within the STS-1 SPE consists of one (1) Stuff Opportunity bit. Hence, there are a total of nine "Stuff Opportunity" bits within each STS-1 SPE. Stuff Control/Indicator Bits Each of the nine (9) rows within the STS-1 SPE contains five (5) Stuff Control/Indicator bits. The purpose of these "Stuff Control/Indicator" bits is to indicate (to the de-mapping PTE) whether the "Stuff Opportunity" bits (that resides in the same row) is a "Stuff" bit or is carrying a DS3 data bit. If all five of these "Stuff Control/Indicator" bits, within a given row are set to "0", then this means that the corresponding "Stuff Opportunity" bit (e.g., the "Stuff Opportunity" bit within the same row) is carrying a DS3 data bit. Conversely, if all five of these "Stuff Control/Indicator" bits, within a given row are set to "1" then this means that the corresponding "Stuff Opportunity" bit is carrying a "stuff" bit. Overhead Communication Bits Telcordia GR-253-CORE permits the user to use these two bits (for each row) as some sort of "Communications" bit. Some Mapper devices, such as the XRT94L43 12-Channel DS3/E3/STS-1 to STS-12/ STM-1 Mapper and the XRT94L33 3-Channel DS3/E3/STS-1 to STS-3/STM-1 Mapper IC (both from Exar Corporation) do permit the user to have access to these bit-fields. However, in general, these particular bits can also be thought of as "Fixed Stuff" bits, that mostly have a "space occupation" function. 9.2.2 DS3 Frequency Offsets and the Use of the "Stuff Opportunity" Bits In order to fully convey the role that the "stuff-opportunity" bits play, when mapping DS3 data into SONET, we will present a detailed discussion of each of the following "Mapping DS3 into STS-1" scenarios. • The Ideal Case (e.g., with no frequency offsets) • The 44.736Mbps + 1 ppm Case 61 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 • The 44.736MHz - 1ppm Case Throughout each of these cases, we will discuss how the resulting "bit-stuffing" (that was done when mapping the DS3 signal into SONET) affects the amount of intrinsic jitter and wander that will be present in the DS3 signal, once it is ultimately de-mapped from SONET. 9.2.2.1 The Ideal Case for Mapping DS3 data into an STS-1 Signal (e.g., with no Frequency Offsets) Let us assume that we are mapping a DS3 signal, which has a bit rate of exactly 44.736Mbps (with no frequency offset) into SONET. Further, let us assume that the SONET circuitry within the PTE is clocked at exactly 51.84MHz (also with no frequency offset), as depicted below. FIGURE 38. A SIMPLE ILLUSTRATION OF A DS3 DATA-STREAM BEING MAPPED INTO AN STS-1 SPE, VIA A PTE DS3_Data_In STS-1_Data_Out PTE PTE 51.84MHz + 0ppm 44.736MHz + 0ppm Given the above-mentioned assumptions, we can state the following. • The DS3 data-stream has a bit-rate of exactly 44.736Mbps • The PTE will create 8000 STS-1 SPE's per second • In order to properly map a DS3 data-stream into an STS-1 data-stream, then each STS-1 SPE must carry (44.736Mbps/8000 =) 5592 DS3 data bits. Is there a Problem? According to Figure 37, each STS-1 SPE only contains 5589 bits that are specifically designated for "DS3 data bits". In this case, each STS-1 SPE appears to be three bits "short". No there is a Simple Solution No, earlier we mentioned that each STS-1 SPE consists of nine (9) "Stuff Opportunity" bits. Therefore, these three additional bits (for DS3 data) are obtained by using three of these "Stuff Opportunity" bits. As a consequence, three (3) of these nine (9) "Stuff Opportunity" bits, within each STS-1 SPE, will carry DS3 databits. The remaining six (6) "Stuff Opportunity" bits will typically function as "stuff" bits. In summary, for the "Ideal Case"; where there is no frequency offset between the DS3 and the STS-1 bit-rates, once this DS3 data-stream has been mapped into the STS-1 data-stream, then each and every STS-1 SPE will have the following "Stuff Opportunity" bit utilization. 3 "Stuff Opportunity" bits will carry DS3 data bits. 6 "Stuff Opportunity" bits will function as "stuff" bits In this case, this DS3 signal (which has now been mapped into STS-1) will be transported across the SONET network. As this STS-1 signal arrives at the "Destination PTE", this PTE will extract (or de-map) this DS3 datastream from each incoming STS-1 SPE. Now since each and every STS-1 SPE contains exactly 5592 DS3 data bits; then the bit rate of this DS3 signal will be exactly 44.736Mbps (such as it was when it was mapped into SONET, at the "Source" PTE). 62 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER As a consequence, no "Mapping/De-Mapping" Jitter or Wander is induced in the "Ideal Case". 9.2.2.2 The 44.736Mbps + 1ppm Case The "above example" was a very ideal case. In reality, there are going to be frequency offsets in both the DS3 and STS-1 signals. For instance Bellcore GR-499-CORE mandates that a DS3 signal have a bit rate of 44.736Mbps ± 20ppm. Hence, the bit-rate of a "Bellcore" compliant DS3 signal can vary from the exact correct frequency for DS3 by as much of 20ppm in either direction. Similarly, many SONET applications mandate that SONET equipment use at least a "Stratum 3" level clock as its timing source. This requirement mandates that an STS-1 signal must have a bit rate that is in the range of 51.84 ± 4.6ppm. To make matters worse, there are also provisions for SONET equipment to use (what is referred to as) a "SONET Minimum Clock" (SMC) as its timing source. In this case, an STS-1 signal can have a bit-rate in the range of 51.84Mbps ± 20ppm. In order to convey the impact that frequency offsets (in either the DS3 or STS-1 signal) will impose on the bitstuffing behavior, and the resulting bit-rate, intrinsic jitter and wander within the DS3 signal that is being transported across the SONET network; let us assume that a DS3 signal, with a bit-rate of 44.736Mbps + 1ppm is being mapped into an STS-1 signal with a bit-rate of 51.84Mbps + 0ppm. In this case, the following things will occur. • In general, most of the STS-1 SPE's will each transport 5592 DS3 data bits. • However, within a "one-second" period, a DS3 signal that has a bit-rate of 44.736Mbps + 1 ppm will deliver approximately 44.7 additional bits (over and above that of a DS3 signal with a bit-rate of 44.736Mbps + 0 ppm). This means that this particular signal will need to "negative-stuff" or map in an additional DS3 data bit every (1/44.736 =) 22.35ms. In other words, this additional DS3 data bit will need to be mapped into about one in every (22.35ms · 8000 =) 178.8 STS-1 SPEs in order to avoid dropping any DS3 data-bits. What does this mean at the "Source" PTE? All of this means that as the "Source" PTE maps this DS3 signal, with a data rate of 44.736Mbps + 1ppm into an STS-1 signal, most of the resulting "outbound" STS-1 SPEs will transport 5592 DS3 data bits (e.g., 3 Stuff Opportunity bits will be carrying DS3 data bits, the remaining 6 Stuff Opportunity bits are "stuff" bits, as in the "Ideal" case). However, in approximately one out of 178.8 "outbound" STS-1 SPEs, there will be a need to insert an additional DS3 data bit within this STS-1 SPE. Whenever this occurs, then (for these particular STS1 SPEs) the SPE will be carrying 5593 DS3 data bits (e.g., 4 Stuff Opportunity bits will be carrying DS3 data bits, the remaining 5 Stuff Opportunity bits are "stuff" bits). Figure 39 presents an illustration of the STS-1 SPE traffic that will be generated by the "Source" PTE, during this condition. FIGURE 39. AN ILLUSTRATION OF THE STS-1 SPE TRAFFIC THAT WILL BE GENERATED BY THE "SOURCE" PTE, DS3 SIGNAL THAT HAS A BIT RATE OF 44.736MBPS + 1PPM, INTO AN STS-1 SIGNAL WHEN MAPPING IN A Extra DS3 Data Bit Stuffed Here SPE # N Source Source PTE PTE 5592 5592 DS3 DS3Data Data Bits Bits SPE # N+1 SPE # N+177 5592 5592 DS3 DS3Data Data Bits Bits 5592 5592 DS3 DS3Data Data Bits Bits SPE # N+179 5593 5593 DS3 DS3Data Data Bits Bits SPE # N+178 44.736Mbps + 1ppm STS-1 SPE Data Stream 63 5592 5592 DS3 DS3Data Data Bits Bits áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 What does this mean at the "Destination" PTE? In this case, this DS3 signal (which has now been mapped into an STS-1 data-stream) will be transported across the SONET network. As this STS-1 signal arrives at the "Destination" PTE, this PTE will extract (or demap) this DS3 data from each incoming STS-1 SPE. Now, in this case most (e.g., 177/178.8) of the incoming STS-1 SPEs will contain 5592 DS3 data-bits. Therefore, the nominal data rate of the DS3 signal being demapped from SONET will be 44.736Mbps. However, in approximately 1 out of every 178 incoming STS-1 SPEs, the SPE will carry 5593 DS3 data-bits. This means that (during these times) the data rate of the demapped DS3 signal will have an instantaneous frequency that is greater than 44.736Mbps. These "excursion" of the de-mapped DS3 data-rate, from the nominal DS3 frequency can be viewed as occurrences of "mapping/ de-mapping" jitter. Since each of these "bit-stuffing" events involve the insertion of one DS3 data bit, we can say that the amplitude of this "mapping/de-mapping" jitter is approximately 1UI-pp. From this point on, we will be referring to this type of jitter (e.g., that which is induced by the mapping and de-mapping process) as "demapping" jitter. Since this occurrence of "de-mapping" jitter is periodic and occurs once every 22.35ms, we can state that this jitter has a frequency of 44.7Hz. 9.2.2.3 The 44.736Mbps - 1ppm Case In this case, let us assume that a DS3 signal, with a bit-rate of 44.736Mbps - 1ppm is being mapped into an STS-1 signal with a bit-rate of 51.84Mbps + 0ppm. In this case, the following this will occur. • In general, most of the STS-1 SPEs will each transport 5592 DS3 data bits. • However, within a "one-second" period a DS3 signal that has a bit-rate of 44.736Mbps - 1ppm will deliver approximately 45 too few bits below that of a DS3 signal with a bit-rate of 44.736Mbps + 0ppm. This means that this particular signal will need to "positive-stuff" or exclude a DS3 data bit from mapping every (1/44.736) = 22.35ms. In other words, we will need to avoid mapping this DS3 data-bit about one in every (22.35ms*8000) = 178.8 STS-1 SPEs. What does this mean at the "Source" PTE? All of this means that as the "Source" PTE maps this DS3 signal, with a data rate of 44.736Mbps - 1ppm into an STS-1 signal, most of the resulting "outbound" STS-1 SPEs will transport 5592 DS3 data bits (e.g., 3 Stuff Opportunity bits will be carrying DS3 data bits, the remaining 6 Stuff Opportunity bits are "stuff" bits). However, in approximately one out of 178.8 "outbound" STS-1 SPEs, there will be a need for a "positive-stuffing" event. Whenever these "positive-stuffing" events occur then (for these particular STS-1 SPEs) the SPE will carry only 5591 DS3 data bits (e.g., in this case, only 2 Stuff Opportunity bits will be carrying DS3 data-bits, and the remaining 7 Stuff Opportunity bits are "stuff" bits). Figure 40 presents an illustration of the STS-1 SPE traffic that will be generated by the "Source" PTE, during this condition. 64 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 FIGURE 40.

In this case, this DS3 signal (which has now been mapped into an STS-1 data-stream) will be transported across the SONET network. As this STS-1 signal arrives at the "Destination" PTE, this PTE will extract (or demap) this DS3 data from each incoming STS-1 SPE. Now, in this case, most (e.g., 177/178.8) of the incoming STS-1 SPEs will contain 5592 DS3 data-bits. Therefore, the nominal data rate of the DS3 signal being demapped from SONET will be 44.736Mbps. However, in approximately 1 out of every 178 incoming STS-1 SPEs, the SPE will carry only 5591 DS3 data bits. This means that (during these times) the data rate of the demapped DS3 signal will have an instantaneous frequency that is less than 44.736Mbps. These "excursions" of the de-mapped DS3 data-rate, from the nominal DS3 frequency can be viewed as occurrences of mapping/demapping jitter with an amplitude of approximately 1UI-pp. Since this occurrence of "de-mapping" jitter is periodic and occurs once every 22.35ms, we can state that this jitter has a frequency of 44.7Hz. We talked about De-Mapping Jitter, What about De-Mapping Wander? The Telcordia and Bellcore specifications define "Wander" as "Jitter with a frequency of less than 10Hz". Based upon this definition, the DS3 signal (that is being transported by SONET) will cease to contain jitter and will now contain "Wander", whenever the frequency offset of the DS3 signal being mapped into SONET is less than 0.2ppm. 9.3 Jitter/Wander due to Pointer Adjustments In the previous section, we described how a DS3 signal is asynchronously-mapped into SONET, and we also defined "Mapping/De-mapping" jitter. In this section, we will describe how occurrences within the SONET network will induce jitter/wander within the DS3 signal that is being transported across the SONET network. In order to accomplish this, we will discuss the following topics in detail. • The concept of an STS-1 SPE pointer • The concept of Pointer Adjustments • The causes of Pointer Adjustments • How Pointer Adjustments induce jitter/wander within a DS3 signal being transported by that SONET network. 9.3.1 The Concept of an STS-1 SPE Pointer As mentioned earlier, the STS-1 SPE is not aligned to the STS-1 frame boundaries and is permitted to "float" within the Envelope Capacity. As a consequence, the STS-1 SPE will often times "straddle" across two 65 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER consecutive STS-1 frames. consecutive STS-1 frames. REV. 1.0.1 Figure 41 presents an illustration of an STS-1 SPE straddling across two FIGURE 41. AN ILLUSTRATION OF AN STS-1 SPE STRADDLING ACROSS TWO CONSECUTIVE STS-1 FRAMES TOH STS-1 FRAME N + 1 STS-1 FRAME N H1, H2 Bytes J1 Byte (1st byte of next SPE) J1 Byte (1st byte of SPE) SPE can straddle across two STS-1 frames A PTE that is receiving and terminating an STS-1 data-stream will perform the following tasks. • It will acquire and maintain STS-1 frame synchronization with the incoming STS-1 data-stream. • Once the PTE has acquired STS-1 frame synchronization, then it will locate the J1 byte (e.g., the very byte within the very next STS-1 SPE) within the Envelope Capacity by reading out the contents of the H1 and H2 bytes. The H1 and H2 bytes are referred to (in the SONET standards) as the SPE Pointer Bytes. When these two bytes are concatenated together in order to form a 16-bit word (with the H1 byte functioning as the "Most Significant Byte") then the contents of the "lower" 10 bit-fields (within this 16-bit word) reflects the location of the J1 byte within the Envelope Capacity of the incoming STS-1 data-stream. Figure 42 presents an illustration of the bit format of the H1 and H2 bytes, and indicates which bit-fields are used to reflect the location of the J1 byte. 66 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER FIGURE 42.

If the content of the "Pointer Bits" is "0x00" then the J1 byte is located immediately after the H3 byte, within the Envelope Capacity. 2. If the contents of the 10-bit expression exceed the value of 0x30F (or 782, in decimal format) then it does not contain a valid pointer value. 9.3.2 Pointer Adjustments within the SONET Network The word SONET stands for "Synchronous Optical NETwork. This name implies that the entire SONET network is synchronized to a single clock source. However, because the SONET (and SDH) Networks can 67 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 span thousands of miles, traverse many different pieces of equipments, and even cross International boundaries; in practice, the SONET/SDH network is NOT synchronized to a single clock source. In practice, the SONET/SDH network can be thought of as being divided into numerous "Synchronization Islands". Each of these "Synchronization Islands" will consist of numerous pieces of SONET Terminal Equipment. Each of these pieces of SONET Terminal Equipment will all be synchronized to a single Stratum-1 clock source which is the most accurate clock source within the Synchronization Island. Typically a "Synchronization Island" will consist of a single "Timing Master" equipment along with multiple "Timing Slave" pieces of equipment. This "Timing Master" equipment will be directly connected to the Stratum-1 clock source and will have the responsibility of distributing a very accurate clock signal (that has been derived from the Stratum 1 clock source) to each of the "Timing Slave" pieces of equipment within the "Synchronization Island". The purpose of this is to permit each of the "Timing Slave" pieces of equipment to be "synchronized" with the "Timing Master" equipment, as well as the Stratum 1 Clock source. Typically this "clock distribution" is performed in the form of a BITS (Building Integrated Timing Supply) clock, in which a very precise clock signal is provided to the other pieces of equipment via a T1 or E1 line signal. Many of these "Synchronization Islands" will use a Stratum-1" clock source that is derived from GPS pulses that are received from Satellites that operate at Geo-synchronous orbit. Other "Synchronization Islands" will use a Stratum-1" clock source that is derived from a very precise local atomic clock. As a consequence, different "Synchronization Islands" will use different Stratum 1 clock sources. The up-shot of having these "Synchronization Islands" that use different "Stratum-1 clock" sources, is that the Stratum 1 Clock frequencies, between these "Synchronization Islands" are likely to be slightly different from each other. These "frequencydifferences" within Stratum 1 clock sources will result in "clock-domain changes" as a SONET signal (that is traversing the SONET network) passes from one "Synchronization Island" to another. The following section will describe how these "frequency differences" will cause a phenomenon called "pointer adjustments" to occur in the SONET Network. 9.3.3 Causes of Pointer Adjustments The best way to discuss how pointer adjustment events occur is to consider an STS-1 signal, which is driven by a timing reference of frequency f1; and that this STS-1 signal is being routed to a network equipment (that resides within a different "Synchronization Island") and processes STS-1 data at a frequency of f2. NOTE: Clearly, both frequencies f1 and f2 are at the STS-1 rate (e.g., 51.84MHz). However, these two frequencies are likely to be slightly different from each other. Now, since the STS-1 signal (which is of frequency f1) is being routed to the network element (which is operating at frequency f2), the typical design approach for handling "clock-domain" differences is to route this STS-1 signal through a "Slip Buffer" as illustrated below. 68 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER FIGURE 44. AN ILLUSTRATION OF AN STS-1 SIGNAL BEING PROCESSED VIA A SLIP BUFFER Clock Domain operating At frequency f1 STS-1 Data_IN STS-1 Clock_f1 STS-1 Data_OUT SLIP SLIPBUFFER BUFFER STS-1 Clock_f2 Clock Domain operating At Frequency f2. In the "Slip Buffer, the "input" STS-1 data (labeled "STS-1 Data_IN") is latched into the FIFO, upon a given edge of the corresponding "STS-1 Clock_f1" input clock signal. The STS-1 Data (labeled "STS-1 Data_OUT") is clocked out of the Slip Buffer upon a given edge of the "STS-1 Clock_f2" input clock signal. The behavior of the data, passing through the "Slip Buffer" is now described for each possible relationship between frequencies f1 and f2. If f1 = f2 If both frequencies, f1 and f2 are exactly equal, then the STS-1 data will be "clocked" into the "Slip Buffer" at exactly the same rate that it is "clocked out". In this case, the "Slip Buffer" will neither fill-up nor become depleted. As a consequence, no pointer-adjustments will occur in this STS-1 data stream. In other words, the STS-1 SPE will remain at a constant location (or offset) within each STS-1 envelope capacity for the duration that this STS-1 signal is supporting this particular service. If f1 < f2 If frequency f1 is less than f2, then this means that the STS-1 data is being "clocked out" of the "Slip Buffer" at a faster rate than it is being clocked in. In this case, the "Slip Buffer" will eventually become depleted. Whenever this occurs, a typical strategy is to "stuff" (or insert) a "dummy byte" into the data stream. The purpose of stuffing this "dummy byte" is to compensate for the frequency differences between f1 and f2, and attempt to keep the "Slip Buffer, at a somewhat constant fill level. NOTE: This "dummy byte" does not carry any valuable information (not for the user, nor for the system). Since this "dummy byte" carries no useful information, it is important that the "Receiving PTE" be notified anytime this "dummy byte" stuffing occurs. This way, the Receiving Terminal can "know" not to treat this "dummy byte" as user data. Byte-Stuffing and Pointer Incrementing in a SONET Network Whenever this "byte-stuffing" occurs then the following other things occur within the STS-1 data stream. During the STS-1 frame that contains the "Byte-Stuffing" event a. The "stuff-byte" will be inserted into the byte position immediately after the H3 byte. This insertion of the "dummy byte" immediately after the H3 byte position will cause the J1 byte (and in-turn, the rest of the SPE) to be "byte-shifted" away from the H3 byte. As a consequence, the offset between the H3 byte position and the STS-1 SPE will now have been increased by 1 byte. b. The "Transmitting" Network Equipment will notify the remote terminal of this byte-stuffing event, by inverting certain bits within the "pointer word" (within the H1 and H2 bytes) that are referred to as "I" bits. 69 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 Figure 45 presents an illustration of the bit-format within the 16-bit word (consist of the H1 and H2 bytes) with the "I" bits designated.

During the STS-1 frame that follows the "Byte-Stuffing" event The "I" bits (within the "pointer-word") will be set back to their normal value; and the contents of the H1 and H2 bytes will be incremented by "1". If f1 > f2 If frequency f1 is greater than f2, then this means that the STS-1 data is being clocked into the "Slip Buffer" at a faster rate than is being clocked out. In this case, the "Slip Buffer" will start to fill up. Whenever this occurs, a typical strategy is to delete (e.g., negative-stuff) a byte from the Slip Buffer. The purpose of this "negativestuffing" is to compensate for the frequency differences between f1 and f2; and to attempt to keep the "Slip Buffer" at a somewhat constant fill-level. NOTE: This byte, which is being "un-stuffed" does carry valuable information for the user (e.g., this byte is typically a payload byte). Therefore, whenever this negative stuffing occurs, two things must happen. a. The "negative-stuffed" byte must not be simply discarded. In other words, it must somehow also be transmitted to the remote PTE with the remainder of the SPE data. b. The remote PTE must be notified of the occurrence of these "negative-stuffing" events. Further, the remote PTE must know where to obtain this "negative-stuffed" byte. Negative-Stuffing and Pointer-Decrementing in a SONET Network Whenever this "byte negative-stuffing" occurs then the following other things occur within the STS-1 datastream. During the STS-1 frame that contains the "Negative Byte-Stuffing" Event a. The "Negative-Stuffed" byte will be inserted into the H3 byte position. Whenever an SPE data byte is inserted into the H3 byte position (which is ordinarily an unused byte), the number of bytes that will exist between the H3 byte and the J1 byte within the very next SPE will be reduced by 1 byte. As a consequence, in this case, the J1 byte (and in-turn, the rest of the SPE) will now be "byte-shifted" towards the H3 byte position. b. The "Transmitting" Network Element will notify the remote terminal of this "negative-stuff" event by inverting certain bits within the "pointer word" (within the H1 and H2 bytes) that are referred to as "D" bits. 70 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER Figure 46 presents an illustration of the bit format within the 16-bit word (consisting of the H1 and H2 bytes) with the "D" bits designated.

The overall SONET network consists of numerous "Synchronization Islands". As a consequence, whenever a SONET signal is being transmitted from one "Synchronization Island" to another; that SONET signal will undergo a "clock domain" change as it traverses the network. This clock domain change will result in periodic pointer-adjustments occurring within this SONET signal. Depending upon the direction of this "clock-domain" shift that the SONET signal experiences, there will either be periodic "incrementing" pointer-adjustment events or periodic "decrementing" pointer-adjustment events within this SONET signal. Regardless of whether a given SONET signal is experiencing incrementing or decrementing pointer adjustment events, each pointer adjustment event will result in an abrupt 8-bit shift in the position of the SPE within the STS-1 data-stream. If this STS-1 signal is transporting an "asynchronously-mapped" DS3 signal; then this 8-bit shift in the location of the SPE (within the STS-1 signal) will result in approximately 8UIpp of jitter within the asynchronously-mapped DS3 signal, as it is de-mapped from SONET. In “Section 9.5, A Review of the Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements (per Telcordia GR-253-CORE) for DS3 applications” on page 73 we will discuss the "Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements (for DS3 Applications) per Telcordia GR-253-CORE. However, for now we will simply state that this 8UIpp of intrinsic jitter far exceeds these "intrinsic jitter" requirements. In summary, pointer-adjustments events are a "fact of life" within the SONET/SDH network. Further, pointeradjustment events, within a SONET signal that is transporting an asynchronously-mapped DS3 signal, will impose a significant impact on the Intrinsic Jitter and Wander within that DS3 signal as it is de-mapped from SONET. 9.4 Clock Gapping Jitter In most applications (in which the LIU will be used in a SONET De-Sync Application) the user will typically interface the LIU to a Mapper Device in the manner as presented below in Figure 47. FIGURE 47. ILLUSTRATION OF THE TYPICAL APPLICATIONS FOR THE LIU IN A SONET DE-SYNC APPLICATION De-Mapped (Gapped) DS3 Data and Clock TPDATA_n input pin STS-N Signal DS3totoSTS-N STS-N DS3 Mapper/ Mapper/ Demapper Demapper IC IC LIU LIU TCLK_n input In this application, the Mapper IC will have the responsibility of receiving an STS-N signal (from the SONET Network) and performing all of the following operations on this STS-N signal. • Byte-de-interleaving this incoming STS-N signal into N STS-1 signals • Terminating each of these STS-1 signals • Extracting (or de-mapping) the DS3 signal(s) from the SPEs within each of these terminated STS-1 signals. In this application, these Mapper devices can be thought of as multi-channel devices. For example, an STS-3 Mapper can be viewed as a 3-Channel DS3/STS-1 to STS-3 Mapper IC. Similarly, an STS-12 Mapper can be 72 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER viewed as a 12-Channel DS3/STS-1 to STS-12 Mapper IC. Continuing on with this line of thought, if a Mapper IC is configured to receive an STS-N signal, and (from this STS-N signal) de-map and output N DS3 signals (towards the DS3 facility), then it will typically do so in the following manner. • In many cases, the Mapper IC will output this DS3 signal, using both a "Data-Signal" and a "Clock-Signal". In many cases, the Mapper IC will output the contents of an entire STS-1 data-stream via the Data-Signal. • However, as the Mapper IC output this STS-1 data-stream, it will typically supply clock pulses (via the ClockSignal output) coincident to whenever a DS3 bit is being output via the Data-Signal. In this case, the Mapper IC will NOT supply a clock pulse coincident to when a TOH, POH, or any "non-DS3 data-bit" is being output via the "Data-Signal". Now, since the Mapper IC will output the entire STS-1 data stream (via the Data-Signal), the output ClockSignal will be of the form such that it has a period of 19.3ns (e.g., a 51.84MHz clock signal). However, the Mapper IC will still generate approximately 44,736,000 clock pulses during any given one second period. Hence, the clock signal that is output from the Mapper IC will be a horribly gapped 44.736MHz clock signal. One can view such a clock signal as being a very-jittery 44.736MHz clock signal. This jitter that exists within the "Clock-Signal" is referred to as "Clock-Gapping" Jitter. A more detailed discussion on how the user must handle this type of jitter is presented in “Section 9.8.2, Recommendations on Pre-Processing the Gapped Clocks (from the Mapper/ASIC Device) prior to routing this DS3 Clock and Data-Signals to the Transmit Inputs of the LIU” on page 84. 9.5 A Review of the Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements (per Telcordia GR-253-CORE) for DS3 applications The "Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements" per Telcordia GR-253-CORE (for DS3 applications) mandates that the user perform a large series of tests against certain specified "Scenarios". These "Scenarios" and their corresponding requirements is summarized in Table 22, below.

Telcordia GR-253-CORE requires that the "DS3 De-Mapping" Jitter be less than 0.4UI-pp, when measured over all possible combinations of DS3 and STS-1 frequency offsets. 9.5.2 Single Pointer Adjustment Telcordia GR-253-CORE states that if each pointer adjustment (within a continuous stream of pointer adjustments) is separated from each other by a period of 30 seconds, or more; then they are sufficiently isolated to be considered "Single-Pointer Adjustments".

In this application, the Mapper has the responsibility of receiving a SONET STS-N/OC-N signal and extracting as many as N DS3 signals from this signal. As a given channel within the Mapper IC extracts out a given DS3 signal (from SONET) it will typically be applying a Clock and Data signal to the "Transmit Input" of the LIU IC. Figure 57 presents a simple illustration as to how one channel, within the LIU should be connected to the Mapper IC. FIGURE 57. ILLUSTRATION OF THE LIU BEING CONNECTED TO A MAPPER IC FOR SONET DE-SYNC APPLICATIONS De-Mapped (Gapped) DS3 Data and Clock TPDATA_n input pin STS-N Signal DS3totoSTS-N STS-N DS3 Mapper/ Mapper/ Demapper Demapper IC IC LIU LIU TCLK n input As mentioned above, the Mapper IC will typically output a Clock and Data signal to the LIU. In many cases, the Mapper IC will output the contents of an entire STS-1 data-stream via the Data Signal to the LIU. However, the Mapper IC typically only supplies a clock pulse via the Clock Signal to the LIU coincident to whenever a DS3 bit is being output via the Data Signal. In this case, the Mapper IC would not supply a clock edge coincident to when a TOH, POH or any non-DS3 data-bit is being output via the Data-Signal. Figure 57 indicates that the Data Signal from the Mapper device should be connected to the TPDATA_n input pin of the LIU IC and that the Clock Signal from the Mapper device should be connected to the TCLK_n input pin of the LIU IC. In this application, the LIU has the following responsibilities. 81 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 • Using a particular clock edge within the "gapped" clock signal (from the Mapper IC) to sample and latch the value of each DS3 data-bit that is output from the Mapper IC. • To (through the user of the Jitter Attenuator block) attenuate the jitter within this "DS3 data" and "clock signal" that is output from the Mapper IC. • To convert this "smoothed" DS3 data and clock into industry-compliant DS3 pulses, and to output these pulses onto the line. To configure the LIU to operate in the correct mode for this application, the user must execute the following configuration steps. a. Configure the LIU to operate in the DS3 Mode The user can configure a given channel (within the LIU) to operate in the DS3 Mode, by executing either of the following steps. • If the LIU has been configured to operate in the Host Mode The user can accomplish this by setting both Bits 2 (E3_n) and Bits 1 (STS-1/DS3*_n), within each of the "Channel Control Registers" to "0" as depicted below.

Pin 76 - E3_0 Pin 94 - E3_1 Pin 85 - E3_2 Pin 72 - STS-1/DS3_0 Pin 98 - STS-1/DS3_1 Pin 81 - STS-1/DS3_2 b. Configure the LIU to operate in the Single-Rail Mode Since the Mapper IC will typically output a single "Data Line" and a "Clock Line" for each DS3 signal that it demaps from the incoming STS-N signal, it is imperative to configure each channel within the LIU to operate in the Single Rail Mode. The user can accomplish this by executing either of the following steps. • If the LIU has been configured to operate in the Host Mode The user can accomplish this by setting Bit 0 (SR/DR*), within the each of the "Channel Control" Registers to 1, as illustrated below. 82 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER CHANNEL CONTROL REGISTER - CHANNEL 0 ADDRESS LOCATION = 0X06 CHANNEL 1 ADDRESS LOCATION = 0X0E CHANNEL 2 ADDRESS LOCATION = 0X16 BIT 7 BIT 6 Unused BIT 5 BIT 4 BIT 3 BIT 2 PRBS Enable Ch_n RLB_n LLB_n E3_n BIT 1 BIT 0 STS-1/ SR/DR_n DS3_n R/O R/O R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 • If the LIU has been configured to operate in the Hardware Mode Then the user should tie pin 65 (SR/DR*) to "High". c. Configure each of the channels within the LIU to operate in the SONET De-Sync Mode The user can accomplish this by executing either of the following steps. • If the LIU has been configured to operate in the Host Mode. Then the user should set Bit D2 (JA0) to "0" and Bit D0 (JA1) to "1", within the Jitter Attenuator Control Register, as depicted below.

Once the user accomplishes either of these steps, then the Jitter Attenuator (within the LIU) will be configured to operate with a very narrow bandwidth. d. Configure the Jitter Attenuator (within each of the channels) to operate in the Transmit Direction. The user can accomplish this by executing either the following steps. • If the LIU has been configured to operate in the Host Mode. Then the user should be Bit D1 (JATx/JARx*) to "1", within the Jitter Attenuator Control Register, as depicted below. 83 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 JITTER ATTENUATOR CONTROL REGISTER - CHANNEL 0 ADDRESS LOCATION = 0X07 CHANNEL 1 ADDRESS LOCATION = 0X0F CHANNEL 2 ADDRESS LOCATION = 0X17 BIT 7 BIT 6 BIT 5 Unused BIT 4 BIT 3 BIT 2 BIT 1 BIT 0 SONET APS Recovery Time DisableCh_n JA RESET Ch_n JA1 Ch_n JA in Tx Path Ch_n JA0 Ch_n R/O R/O R/O R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 • If the LIU has been configured to operate in the Hardware Mode. Then the user should tie pin 43 (JATx/JARx*) to "1". e. Enable the "SONET APS Recovery Time" Mode Finally, if the user intends to use the LIU in an Application that is required to reacquire proper SONET and DS3 traffic, prior within 50ms of an APS (Automatic Protection Switching) event (per Telcordia GR-253-CORE), then the user should set Bit 4 (SONET APS Recovery Time Disable), within the "Jitter Attenuator Control" Register, to "0" as depicted below.

The ability to disable the "SONET APS Recovery Time" mode is only available if the LIU is operating in the Host Mode. If the LIU is operating in the "Hardware" Mode, then this "SONET APS Recovery Time Mode" feature will always be enabled. 2. The "SONET APS Recovery Time" mode will be discussed in greater detail in “Section 9.8.3, How does the LIU permit the user to comply with the SONET APS Recovery Time requirements of 50ms (per Telcordia GR-253CORE)?” on page 88. 9.8.2 Recommendations on Pre-Processing the Gapped Clocks (from the Mapper/ASIC Device) prior to routing this DS3 Clock and Data-Signals to the Transmit Inputs of the LIU In order to minimize the effects of "Clock-Gapping" Jitter within the DS3 signal that is ultimately transmitted to the DS3 Line (or facility), we recommend that some "pre-processing" of the "Data-Signals" and "Clock-Signals" (which are output from the Mapper device) be implemented prior to routing these signals to the "Transmit Inputs" of the LIU. 9.8.2.1 SOME NOTES PRIOR TO STARTING THIS DISCUSSION: 84 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER Our simulation results indicate that Jitter Attenuator PLL (within the LIU LIU IC) will have no problem handling and processing the "Data-Signal" and "Clock-Signal" from a Mapper IC/ASIC if no pre-processing has been performed on these signals. In order words, our simulation results indicate that the Jitter Attenuator PLL (within the LIU IC) will have no problem handling the "worst-case" of 59 consecutive bits of no clock pulses in the "Clock-Signal (due to the Mapper IC processing the TOH bytes, an Incrementing Pointer-Adjustmentinduced "stuffed-byte", the POH byte, and the two fixed-stuff bytes within the STS-1 SPE, etc), immediately followed be processing clusters of DS3 data-bits (as shown in Figure 37) and still comply with the "Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements per Telcordia GR-253-CORE for DS3 applications. NOTE: If this sort of "pre-processing" is already supported by the Mapper device that you are using, then no further action is required by the user. 9.8.2.2 OUR PRE-PROCESSING RECOMMENDATIONS For the time-being, we recommend that the customer implement the "pre-processing" of the DS3 "Data-Signal" and "Clock-Signal" as described below. Currently we are aware that some of the Mapper products on the Market do implement this exact "pre-processing" algorithm. However, if the customer is implementing their Mapper Design in an ASIC or FPGA solution, then we strongly recommend that the user implement the necessary logic design to realize the following recommendations. Some time ago, we spent some time, studying (and then later testing our solution with) the PM5342 OC-3 to DS3 Mapper IC from PMC-Sierra. In particular, we wanted to understand the type of "DS3 Clock" and "Data" signal that this DS3 to OC-3 Mapper IC outputs. During this effort, we learned the following. 1. This "DS3 Clock" and "Data" signal, which is output from the Mapper IC consists of two major "repeating" patterns (which we will refer to as "MAJOR PATTERN A" and "MAJOR PATTERN B". The behavior of each of these patterns is presented below. MAJOR PATTERN A MAJOR PATTERN A consists of two "sub" or minor-patterns, (which we will refer to as "MINOR PATTERN P1 and P2). MINOR PATTERN P1 consists of a string of seven (7) clock pulses, followed by a single gap (no clock pulse). An illustration of MINOR PATTERN P1 is presented below in Figure 58. FIGURE 58. ILLUSTRATION OF MINOR PATTERN P1 Missing Clock Pulse 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 It should be noted that each of these clock pulses has a period of approximately 19.3ns (or has an "instantaneously frequency of 51.84MHz). MINOR Pattern P2 consists of string of five (5) clock pulses, which is also followed by a single gap (no clock pulse). An illustration of Pattern P2 is presented below in Figure 59. 85 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 FIGURE 59. ILLUSTRATION OF MINOR PATTERN P2 Missing Clock Pulse 1 2 3 4 5 HOW MAJOR PATTERN A IS SYNTHESIZED MAJOR PATTERN A is created (by the Mapper IC) by: • Repeating MINOR PATTERN P1 (e.g., 7 clock pulses, followed by a gap) 63 times. • Upon completion of the 63rd transmission of MINOR PATTERN P1, MINOR PATTERN P2 is transmitted repeatedly 36 times. Figure 60 presents an illustration which depicts the procedure that is used to synthesize MAJOR PATTERN A FIGURE 60. ILLUSTRATION OF PROCEDURE WHICH IS USED TO SYNTHESIZE MAJOR PATTERN A Repeats 63 Times MINOR PATTERN P1 Repeats 36 Times MINOR PATTERN P2 Hence, MAJOR PATTERN A consists of "(63 x 7) + (36 x 5)" = 621 clock pulses. These 621 clock pulses were delivered over a period of "(63 x 8) + (36 x 6)" = 720 STS-1 (or 51.84MHz) clock periods. MAJOR PATTERN B MAJOR PATTERN B consists of three sub or minor-patterns (which we will refer to as "MINOR PATTERNS P1, P2 and P3). MINOR PATTERN P1, which is used to partially synthesize MAJOR PATTERN B, is exactly the same "MINOR PATTERN P1" as was presented above in Figure 30. Similarly, the MINOR PATTERN P2, which is also used to partially synthesize MAJOR PATTERN B, is exactly the same "MINOR PATTERN P2" as was presented in Figure 31. MINOR PATTERN P3 (which has yet to be defined) consists of a string of six (6) clock pulses, which contains no gaps. An illustration of MINOR PATTERN P3 is presented below in Figure 61. 86 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER FIGURE 61. ILLUSTRATION OF MINOR PATTERN P3 1 2 3 4 5 6 HOW MAJOR PATTERN B IS SYNTHESIZED MAJOR PATTERN B is created (by the Mapper IC) by: • Repeating MINOR PATTERN P1 (e.g., 7 clock pulses, followed by a gap) 63 times. • Upon completion of the 63rd transmission of MINOR PATTERN P1, MINOR PATTERN P2 is transmitted repeatedly 36 times. • pon completion of the 35th transmission of MINOR PATTERN P2, MINOR PATTERN P3 is transmitted once. Figure 62 presents an illustration which depicts the procedure that is used to synthesize MAJOR PATTERN B. FIGURE 62. ILLUSTRATION OF PROCEDURE WHICH IS USED TO SYNTHESIZE PATTERN B Transmitted 1 Time Repeats 63 Times PATTERN P1 Repeats 35 Times PATTERN P2 PATTERN P3 Hence, MAJOR PATTERN B consists of "(63 x 7) + (35 x 5)" + 6 = 622 clock pulses. These 622 clock pulses were delivered over a period of "(63 x 8) + (35 x 6) + 6 = 720 STS-1 (or 51.84MHz) clock periods. PUTTING THE PATTERNS TOGETHER Finally, the DS3 to OC-N Mapper IC clock output is reproduced by doing the following. • MAJOR PATTERN A is transmitted two times (repeatedly). • After the second transmission of MAJOR PATTERN A, MAJOR PATTERN B is transmitted once. • Then the whole process repeats. Throughout the remainder of this document, we will refer to this particular pattern as the "SUPER PATTERN". Figure 63 presents an illustration of this "SUPER PATTERN" which is output via the Mapper IC. 87 áç XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER REV. 1.0.1 FIGURE 63. ILLUSTRATION OF THE SUPER PATTERN WHICH IS OUTPUT VIA THE "OC-N TO DS3" MAPPER IC PATTERN A PATTERN A PATTERN B CROSS-CHECKING OUR DATA • Each SUPER PATTERN consists of (621 + 621 + 622) = 1864 clock pulses. • The total amount of time, which is required for the "DS3 to OC-N Mapper" IC to transmit this SUPER PATTERN is (720 + 720 + 720) = 2160 "STS-1" clock periods. • This amount to a period of (2160/51.84MHz) = 41,667ns. • In a period of 41, 667ns, the LIU (when configured to operate in the DS3 Mode), will output a total (41,667ns x 44,736,000) = 1864 uniformly spaced DS3 clock pulses. • Hence, the number of clock pulses match. APPLYING THE SUPER PATTERN TO THE LIU Whenever the LIU is configured to operate in a "SONET De-Sync" application, the device will accept a continuous string of the above-defined SUPER PATTERN, via the TCLK input pin (along with the corresponding data). The channel within the LIU (which will be configured to operate in the "DS3" Mode) will output a DS3 line signal (to the DS3 facility) that complies with the "Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements per Telcordia GR-253-CORE (for DS3 applications). This scheme is illustrated below in Figure 64. FIGURE 64. SIMPLE ILLUSTRATION OF THE LIU BEING USED IN A SONET DE-SYNCHRONIZER" APPLICATION De-Mapped (Gapped) DS3 Data and Clock TPDATA_n input pin STS-N Signal DS3to toSTS-N STS-N DS3 Mapper/ Mapper/ Demapper Demapper IC IC LIU LIU TCLK_n input 9.8.3 How does the LIU permit the user to comply with the SONET APS Recovery Time requirements of 50ms (per Telcordia GR-253-CORE)? Telcordia GR-253-CORE, Section 5.3.3.3 mandates that the "APS Completion" (or Recovery) time be 50ms or less. Many of our customers interpret this particular requirement as follows. "From the instant that an APS is initiated on a high-speed SONET signal, all lower-speed SONET traffic (which is being transported via this "high-speed" SONET signal) must be fully restored within 50ms. Similarly, if the "high-speed" SONET signal is transporting some PDH signals (such as DS1 or DS3, etc.), then those entities 88 áç REV. 1.0.1 XRT75L04D FOUR CHANNEL E3/DS3/STS-1 LINE INTERFACE UNIT WITH SONET DESYNCHRONIZER that are responsible for acquiring and maintaining DS1 or DS3 frame synchronization (with these DS1 or DS3 data-streams that have been de-mapped from SONET) must have re-acquired DS1 or DS3 frame synchronization within 50ms" after APS has been initiated." The LIU was designed such that the DS3 signals that it receives from a SONET Mapper device and processes will comply with the Category I Intrinsic Jitter requirements per Telcordia GR-253-CORE. Reference 1 documents some APS Recovery Time testing, which was performed to verify that the Jitter Attenuator blocks (within the LIU) device that permit it to comply with the Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements (for DS3 Applications) per Telcordia GR-253-CORE, do not cause it to fail to comply with the "APS Completion Time" requirements per Section 5.3.3.3 of Telcordia GR-253-CORE. However, Table 3 presents a summary of some APS Recovery Time requirements that were documented within this test report. Table 3, TABLE 24: MEASURED APS RECOVERY TIME AS A FUNCTION OF DS3 PPM OFFSET DS3 PPM OFFSET (PER W&G ANT-20SE) MEASURED APS RECOVERY TIME (PER LOGIC ANALYZER) -99 ppm 1.25ms -40ppm 1.54ms -30 ppm 1.34ms -20 ppm 1.49ms -10 ppm 1.30ms 0 ppm 1.89ms +10 ppm 1.21ms +20 ppm 1.64ms +30 ppm 1.32ms +40 ppm 1.25ms +99 ppm 1.35ms NOTE: The APS Completion (or Recovery) time requirement is 50ms. Configuring the LIU to be able to comply with the SONET APS Recovery Time Requirements of 50ms Quite simply, the user can configure a given Jitter Attenuator block (associated with a given channel) to (1) comply with the "APS Completion Time" requirements per Telcordia GR-253-CORE, and (2) also comply with the "Category I Intrinsic Jitter Requirements per Telcordia GR-253-CORE (for DS3 applications) by making sure that Bit 4 (SONET APS Recovery Time Disable Ch_n), within the Jitter Attenuator Control Register is set to "0" as depicted below.

If the user is operating the LIU in the Hardware Mode, then the user will have NO ability to disable the "SONET APS Recovery Time Mode" feature. 9.8.4 How should one configure the LIU, if one needs to support "Daisy-Chain" Testing at the end Customer's site? Daisy-Chain testing is emerging as a new requirements that many of our customers are imposing on our SONET Mapper and LIU products. Many System Designer/Manufacturers are finding out that whenever their end-customers that are evaluating and testing out their systems (in order to determine if they wish to move forward and start purchasing this equipment in volume) are routinely demanding that they be able to test out these systems with a single piece of test equipment. This means that the end-customer would like to take a single piece of DS3 or STS-1 test equipment and (with this test equipment) snake the DS3 or STS-1 traffic (that this test equipment will generate) through many or (preferably all) channels within the system. For example, we have had request from our customers that (on a system that supports OC-192) our silicon be able to support this DS3 or STS-1 traffic snaking through the 192 DS3 or STS-1 ports within this system. After extensive testing, we have determined that the best approach to complying with test "Daisy-Chain" Testing requirements, is to configure the Jitter Attenuator blocks (within each of the Channels within the LIU) into the "32-Bit" Mode. The user can configure the Jitter Attenuator block (within a given channel of the LIU) to operate in this mode by settings in the table below.
