LXT310
T1 CSU/ISDN PRI Transceiver
Datasheet
The LXT310 is the first fully integrated transceiver for T1 CSU and ISDN Primary Rate
Interface (ISDN PRI) applications at 1.544 Mbps. This transceiver operates over 6,000 feet of 22
AWG twisted-pair cable without any external components. To compensate for shorter lines, 7.5
dB, 15 dB, and 22.5 dB frequency-dependent transmit Line Build-Outs (LBOs) are provided.
The device offers selectable B8ZS encoding/decoding, and unipolar or bipolar data I/O. The
LXT310 also provides jitter attenuation in either the transmit or receive direction starting at 6
Hz, and incorporates a serial interface (SIO) for microprocessor control.
The LXT310 offers a variety of diagnostic features including loopbacks and loss of signal
monitoring. It uses an advanced double-poly, double-metal CMOS process and requires only a
single 5-volt power supply.

MCLK
I
Master Clock. A 1.544 MHz clock input used to generate internal clocks. Upon Loss of
Signal (LOS), RCLK is derived from MCLK. If MCLK is not applied, this pin should be
grounded.
2
TCLK
I
Transmit Clock. TPOS and TNEG are sampled on the falling edge of TCLK.

TPOS/TDATA
I
4
TNEG/UBS
I
Transmit Data Input /Polarity Select. Input data to be transmitted on the twisted-pair line.
Normally, pin 3 is TPOS and pin 4 is TNEG, the positive and negative sides of a bipolar input
pair. However, if pin 4 is held High for at least 16 TCLK cycles (equivalent to 15 successive
bipolar violations), the LXT310 switches to a unipolar I/O mode and transmit data is input on
pin 3. The LXT310 returns to bipolar I/O mode when pin 4 goes Low.

I
Mode Select. Setting MODE High selects the Host mode. In Host mode, the serial interface
is enabled for control and status reporting via a µP. Setting MODE Low selects the Hardware
(H/W) mode. In Hardware mode the serial interface is disabled; hard-wired pins control
configuration and report status. Tying MODE to RCLK enables Hardware mode and the
B8ZS encoder/decoder.
O
Receive Negative Data; Receive Positive Data. In Bipolar Data I/O mode pins 6 and 7 are
bipolar data outputs. A signal on RNEG corresponds to detection of a negative pulse on
RTIP/RRING, and a signal on RPOS corresponds to a positive pulse on RTIP/RRING.
RNEG/RPOS outputs are Non Return-to-Zero (NRZ). In Host mode, CLKE determines the
clock edge at which these outputs are stable and valid. In Hardware mode both outputs are
stable and valid on the rising edge of RCLK.
O
Bipolar Violation. In Unipolar Data I/O mode, pin 6 goes High to indicate receipt of a Bipolar
Violation of the Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) code.
O
Receive Data. In Unipolar mode, data received from the twisted-pair line is output at pin 7.

XTALOUT
O
Crystal Input; Crystal Output. An external crystal (18.7 pF load capacitance, pullable)
operating at 6.176 MHz (four times the bit rate) is required to enable the jitter attenuation
function of the LXT310. These pins may also be used to disable the jitter attenuator by
connecting the XTALIN pin to the positive supply through a resistor, and leaving the
XTALOUT pin unconnected.
11
JASEL
I
Jitter Attenuation Select. Selects jitter attenuation location. When JASEL is High, the jitter
attenuator is active in the receive path. When JASEL is Low, the jitter attenuator is active in
the transmit path.
Loss of Signal. LOS goes High when 175 consecutive spaces have been detected. LOS
returns Low when the received signal reaches a mark density of 12.5% (determined by
receipt of four marks within 32 bit periods). Received marks are output on RPOS and RNEG
even when LOS is High.

NLOOP
O
Network Loopback (H/W mode). When High, indicates Inband Network Loopback has been
activated by reception of 00001 pattern for five seconds. NLOOP is reset by reception of 001
for five seconds, or by activation of RLOOP or LLOOP.
INT
O
Interrupt (Host mode). In Host mode INT goes Low to flag the host processor when LOS or
NLOOP changes state. INT is an open-drain output and should be tied to power supply RV+
through a resistor. INT is reset by clearing the LOS or NLOOP register bit.
SDI
I
Serial Data In (Host mode). The serial data input stream is applied to this pin when the
LXT310 operates in the Host mode. SDI is sampled on the rising edge of SCLK.
LBO1
I
Line Build-Out Select 1 (H/W mode). In Hardware mode LBO1 works in conjunction with
LBO2 to select the transmit line build-outs: 00 = 0 dB, 01 = 7.5 dB, 10 = 15 dB, and 11 = 22.5
dB.
SDO
O
Serial Data Out (Host mode). The serial data from the LXT310 register is output on this pin
in Host mode. If CLKE is High, SDO is valid on the rising edge of SCLK. If CLKE is Low,
SDO is valid on the falling edge of SCLK. This pin goes to a high-impedance state when the
serial port is being written to and when CS is High.
LBO2
I
Line Build-Out Select 2 (H/W mode). Refer to LBO1 signal description.
CS
I
Chip Select (Host mode). This pin selects the serial interface in the Host mode. For each
read or write operation, CS must transition from High to Low, and remain Low.
RLOOP
I
Remote Loopback (H/W mode). This pin controls loopback in the Hardware mode. Setting
RLOOP High enables Remote Loopback. During Remote Loopback, in-line encoders and
decoders are bypassed. Setting both RLOOP and LLOOP High, while holding TAOS Low,
causes a Reset. Setting both RLOOP and LLOOP High, with TAOS High (or tying RCLK to
RLOOP), enables Network Loopback detection.
SCLK
I
Serial Clock (Host mode). This clock is used in the Host mode to write data to or read data
from the serial interface registers.
LLOOP
I
Local Loopback (H/W mode). This input controls loopback functions in the Hardware mode.
Setting LLOOP High enables the Local Loopback mode. Setting both LLOOP and RLOOP
High, while holding TAOS Low, causes a Reset.
CLKE
I
Clock Edge Select (Host mode). Setting CLKE High causes RPOS and RNEG to be valid
on the falling edge of RCLK, and SDO to be valid on the rising edge of SCLK. When CLKE is
Low, RPOS and RNEG are valid on the rising edge of RCLK, and SDO is valid on the falling
edge of SCLK.
TAOS
I
Transmit All Ones (H/W mode). When set High in the Hardware mode, TAOS causes the
LXT310 to transmit a stream of marks at the TCLK frequency. Activating TAOS causes
TPOS and TNEG inputs to be ignored. TAOS is inhibited during Remote Loopback. Setting
TAOS, LLOOP and RLOOP High simultaneously enables Network Loopback detection.
Receive Tip; Receive Ring. The AMI signal received from the line is applied at these pins.
A 1:1 transformer is required. Data and clock from the signal applied at these pins are
recovered and output on the RPOS/RNEG and RCLK pins.

Datasheet
T1 CSU/ISDN PRI Transceiver — LXT310
2.0
Functional Description
The LXT310 is a fully integrated PCM transceiver for 1.544 Mbps (T1) applications. It allows
full-duplex transmission of digital data over existing twisted-pair installations.
The LXT310 interfaces with two twisted-pair lines (one pair for transmit, one pair for receive)
through standard pulse transformers and appropriate resistors.
The figure on the front page of this section is a block diagram of the LXT310. The transceiver may
be controlled by a microprocessor through the serial port (Host mode), or by individual pin settings
(Hardware mode). The jitter attenuator may be positioned in either the transmit or receive path.
2.1
Power Requirements
The LXT310 is a low-power CMOS device. It operates from a single +5 V power supply which
can be connected externally to both the transmitter and receiver. However, the two inputs must be
within ±0.3 V of each other, and decoupled to their respective grounds separately. Refer to
Application Information for typical decoupling circuitry. Isolation between the transmit and
receive circuits is provided internally.
2.1.1
Initialization and Reset Operations
Upon power up, the transceiver is held static until the power supply reaches approximately 3 V.
Upon crossing this threshold, the device begins a 32 ms reset cycle to calibrate the transmit and
receive delay lines and lock the Phase Lock Loop to the receive line. A reference clock is required
to calibrate the delay lines. The transmitter reference is provided by TCLK. The crystal oscillator
provides the receiver reference. If the crystal oscillator is grounded, MCLK is used as the receiver
reference clock.
The transceiver can also be reset from the Host or Hardware mode. In Host mode, reset is
commanded by simultaneously writing ones to RLOOP and LLOOP, and a zero to TAOS. In
Hardware mode, reset is commanded by holding RLOOP and LLOOP High simultaneously for 200
ns while holding TAOS Low. In either mode, reset clears and sets all registers to 0.
2.2
Receiver
The twisted-pair input is received via a 1:1 transformer. Recovered data is output at RPOS/RNEG
(RDATA in unipolar mode), and the recovered clock is output at RCLK. Refer to Test
Specifications for receiver timing.
The signal received at RPOS and RNEG is processed through the receive equalizer. The Equalizer
Gain Limit (EGL) input determines the maximum gain that may be applied at the equalizer. When
set Low, up to 36 dB of gain may be applied.
When EGL is High, gain is limited to no more than 26 dB providing for increased noise margin in
shorter loop operation. Insertion loss of the line in 7.5 dB steps, as indicated by the receive
equalizer setting, is encoded in the LATN output as shown in Figure 3.

LATN = 2 RCLK, 15 dB of Attenuation
LATN = 1 RCLK, 7.5 dB of Attenuation
NOTE: LATN is stable and valid on the rising edge of RCLK
The equalized signal is filtered and applied to the peak detector and data slicers. The peak detector
samples the inputs and determines the maximum value of the received signal. A percentage of the
peak value is provided to the data slicers as a threshold level to ensure optimum signal-to-noise
ratio. The threshold is set to 50% of the peak value. The receiver is capable of accurately
recovering signals with up to 36 dB of cable attenuation (from 2.4 V)
After processing through the data slicers, the received signal is routed to the data and timing
recovery section, then to the B8ZS decoder (if selected) and to the LOS processor. The LOS
Processor loads a digital counter at the RCLK frequency. The count is incremented each time a
zero (space) is received, and reset to zero each time a one (mark) is received. Upon receipt of 175
consecutive zeros the LOS pin goes High, and a smooth transition replaces the RCLK output with
the MCLK. Note that during LOS, if MCLK is not supplied and JASEL = 1, the RCLK output is
replaced with the centered crystal clock.
Received marks will be output regardless of the LOS status, but the LOS pin will not reset until the
ones density reaches 12.5%. This level is based on receipt of at least 4 ones in any 32-bit period.
2.3
Transmitter
Input data (bipolar or unipolar) for transmission onto the line is clocked serially into the device.
Bipolar data is input at pin 3 (TPOS) and pin 4 (TNEG). Unipolar data is input at pin 3 (TDATA)
only. Unipolar mode is enabled by holding pin 4 high for 16 RCLK cycles. Input data may be
passed through the Jitter Attenuator and/or B8ZS encoder, if selected. In Host mode, B8ZS is
selected by setting bit D3 of the input data byte. In Hardware mode, B8ZS is selected by
connecting the MODE pin to RCLK. Input synchronization is supplied by the transmit clock
(TCLK). Timing requirements for TCLK and the Master Clock (MCLK) are defined in Test
Specifications.
2.3.1
Idle Mode
The LXT310 incorporates a transmit idle mode. This allows multiple transceivers to be connected
to a single line for redundant applications. TTIP and TRING remain in a high- impedance state
when TCLK is not present (TCLK grounded). The high-impedance state can be temporarily
disabled by enabling either TAOS, Remote Loopback or Network Loopback.

Datasheet
T1 CSU/ISDN PRI Transceiver — LXT310
The transmitted pulse shape is determined by Line Build Out (LBO) inputs LBO1 and LBO2 as
follows:

In Host mode, LBO is specified by setting the appropriate bits in the LXT310 register via the serial
port. In the Hardware mode, LBO inputs are applied through individual pins (1 = High; 0 = Low).
Shaped pulses meeting the various T1 CSU and ISDN PRI requirements are applied to the AMI
line driver for transmission onto the line at TTIP and TRING. Refer to Test Specifications for T1
pulse mask specifications.
2.3.2
Short Circuit Limit
The LXT310 transmitter is equipped with a short-circuit limiter. This feature limits to
approximately 120 mA RMS the current the transmitter will source into a low-impedance load.
The limiter trips when the RMS current exceeds the limit for 100 µs (~ 150 marks). It
automatically resets when the load current drops below the limit.
The LXT310 meets or exceeds FCC and AT&T specifications for CSU and NI applications, as well
as ANSI T1E1, and CCITT requirements for ISDN PRI.
2.3.3
Line Code
The LXT310 transmits data as a 50% AMI line code as shown in Figure 4. Power consumption is
reduced by activating the AMI line driver only to transmit a mark. The output driver is disabled
during transmission of a space. Biasing of the transmit DC level is on-chip.

Jitter Attenuation
Jitter attenuation is provided by a Jitter Attenuation Loop (JAL) and an Elastic Store (ES). An
external crystal oscillating at 4 times the bit rate provides clock stabilization. Refer to Table 6 for
crystal specifications. The ES is a 32 x 2-bit register. When JASEL = 1, the JAL is positioned in
the receive path. When JASEL = 0, the JAL is positioned in the transmit path.
Datasheet
11
LXT310 — T1 CSU/ISDN PRI Transceiver
Data (TPOS/TNEG / TDATA or RPOS/RNEG / RDATA) is clocked into the ES with the associated
clock signal (TCLK or RCLK), and clocked out of the ES with the dejittered clock from the JAL.
When the bit count in the ES is within two bits of overflowing or underflowing, the ES adjusts the
output clock by 1/8 of a bit period. The ES produces an average delay of 16 bits in the associated
path.
2.5
Operating Modes
The LXT310 can be controlled by a microprocessor through a serial interface (Host mode), or
through individual pins (Hardware mode). The mode of operation is set by the MODE pin logic
level.
2.5.1
Host Mode Operation
The LXT310 operates in the Host mode when MODE is set High. The 16-bit serial word consists
of an 8-bit Command/Address byte and an 8-bit Data byte.
Table 3 lists the output data bit combinations. Figure 5 shows the serial interface data structure and
timing. The Host mode provides a latched Interrupt output (INT) which is triggered by a change in
the LOS or NLOOP bits. The Interrupt is cleared when the interrupt condition no longer exists,
and the host processor writes a one to the respective bit in the serial input data byte.
Host mode also allows control of the serial data and receive data output timing. The Clock Edge
(CLKE) signal determines when these outputs are valid, relative to the Serial Clock (SCLK) or
RCLK as listed in Table 2.

The LXT310 serial port is addressed by setting bit A4 in the Address/Command byte,
corresponding to address 16. The LXT310 contains only a single output data register so no
complex chip addressing scheme is required. The register is accessed by causing the Chip Select
(CS) input to transition from High to Low. Bit 1 of the serial Address/Command byte provides
Read/Write control when the chip is accessed. A logic 1 indicates a read operation, and a logic 0
indicates a write operation. Serial data I/O timing characteristics are shown in Table 14, and Figure
12 and Figure 13 in the Test Specifications section.

Hardware Mode Operation
In Hardware mode the transceiver is accessed and controlled through individual pins. With the
exception of the INT and CLKE functions, Hardware mode provides all the functions provided in
the Host mode. In the Hardware mode RPOS/RNEG or RDATA outputs are valid on the rising
edge of RCLK. The LXT310 operates in Hardware mode only when MODE is set Low or
connected to RCLK.
Datasheet

LXT310 — T1 CSU/ISDN PRI Transceiver
2.5.3
Diagnostic Mode Operation
2.5.3.1
Transmit All Ones
In Transmit All Ones (TAOS) mode, the TPOS and TNEG inputs to the transceiver are ignored and
the transceiver transmits a continuous stream of ones at the TCLK frequency. If TCLK is not
provided, TAOS is locked to the MCLK. This can be used as the Blue Alarm Indicator (AIS). In
Host mode, TAOS is commanded by writing a one to bit D7 of the input data byte. In Hardware
mode, TAOS is commanded by setting pin 28 High. TAOS can be commanded simultaneously
with Local Loopback, but is inhibited during Remote Loopback.
2.5.3.2
Local Loopback
Local Loopback (LLOOP) is designed to exercise the maximum number of functional blocks.
During LLOOP operation, the RTIP/RRING inputs from the line are disconnected. Instead, the
transmit outputs are routed back into the receive inputs. This tests the encoders/decoders, jitter
attenuator, transmitter, receiver and timing recovery sections. In Host mode, Local Loopback is
commanded by writing a one to bit D6 of the input data byte. In Hardware mode, Local Loopback
is commanded by setting pin 27 High. If TAOS and LLOOP are both set, the All Ones pattern is
transmitted onto the line while the TPOS/TNEG input data is looped back to the RPOS/RNEG
outputs.
2.5.3.3
Remote Loopback
In Remote Loopback (RLOOP) mode, the transmit data and clock inputs (TCLK and TPOS/TNEG
or TDATA) are ignored, and the in-line encoders and decoders are bypassed. The RPOS/RNEG or
RDATA outputs are looped back through the transmit circuits and output on TTIP and TRING at
the RCLK frequency. Receiver circuits are unaffected by the RLOOP command and continue to
output the RCLK and RPOS/RNEG or RDATA signals received from the twisted-pair line. In Host
mode, Remote Loopback is commanded by writing a one to bit D5 of the input data byte. In
Hardware mode, Remote Loopback is commanded by setting pin 26 High.
2.5.3.4
Network Loopback
Network Loopback can be commanded from the network when the Network Loopback detect
function is enabled. In Host mode, Network Loopback (NLOOP) detection is enabled by
simultaneously writing ones to RLOOP, LLOOP and TAOS, then writing zeros in the next cycle.
In Hardware mode, Network Loopback detection is enabled by holding RLOOP, LLOOP and
TAOS High simultaneously for 200 ns then bringing them Low, or by tying RCLK to RLOOP.
NLOOP detection may be disabled by resetting the chip.
When NLOOP detection is enabled, the receiver monitors the input data stream for the NLOOP
data patterns (00001 = enable, 001 = disable). When an NLOOP enable data pattern is repeated for
a minimum of five seconds (with 10-3 BER), the device begins remote loopback operation. The
LXT310 responds to both framed and unframed NLOOP patterns. Once remote network loopback
detection is enabled at the chip and activated by the correct data pattern, it is identical to remote
loopback initiated at the chip. NLOOP is reset by receiving the disable pattern for 5 seconds, or by
activation of RLOOP. NLOOP is temporarily interrupted by LLOOP, but the NLOOP state is not
reset.

LATN Decoding Circuits and External Components
To conserve pins, the line attenuation output is encoded as a simple serial bit stream. Table 4
provides the decoded output for each equalizer setting. Figure 6 is a typical decoding circuit for the
LATN output. It uses a 2-bit synchronous counter (half of a 4-bit counter) with synchronous reset,
and a pair of flip-flops. Table 5 lists approved crystals and transformers.

Host Mode Applications
Figure 7 shows a typical T1 CSU application with the LXT310 operating in the Host mode (MODE
pin tied high). A T1/ESF Framer provides the digital interface with the host controller. Both
devices are controlled through the serial interface. In the Host mode, the LOS alarm is reported via
the serial port so the LOS pin is allowed to float.
An LXP600A Clock Adapter (CLAD) provides the 2.048 MHz system backplane clock, locked to
the recovered 1.544 MHz clock signal. The 6.176 MHz crystal across XTALIN and XTALOUT
enables the JAL that is switched to the transmit side by the Low on JASEL. Refer to Table 5 for
approved crystals and transformers. The power supply inputs are tied to a common bus with
appropriate decoupling capacitors (68 µF and 0.1 µF) installed on each side.
The twisted-pair interfaces are relatively simple. A 100 Ω resistor across the input of a 1:1
transformer is used on the receive side, and a pair of 12.5 Ω resistors are installed in line with the
1:2 output transformer.

LXT310 Hardware Mode Applications
Figure 8 is a typical 1.544 Mbps ISDN PRI application with the LXT310, a T1/ESF framer and an
LXP600A clock adapter. The LXT310 is operating in the Hardware mode with B8ZS encoding
enabled (MODE pin 5 tied to RCLK). As in the T1/CSU application, Figure 7, this configuration is
illustrated with a single power supply bus. CMOS control logic is used to set both LBO pins high,
18
Datasheet
T1 CSU/ISDN PRI Transceiver — LXT310
selecting the 22.5 dB LBO, and the EGL pin is tied low, allowing for full receiver gain. The
TAOS, LLOOP and RLOOP diagnostic modes are individually controllable. The RCLK input to
the OR gate at RLOOP allows for clocking of the RLOOP pin, which enables network loopback
detection. The receive and transmit line interfaces are identical to the Host mode application
shown in Figure 7.
