Pin Diagram
Connor-Winfield's STL timing module provides Stratum
3E synchronization for a complete system clock solution in a
single module in accordance with GR-1244-CORE Issue 2, GR253-CORE Issue 3, and ITU-T G.812 Option III. The STL
provides a reliable network element clock reference to line cards
used in TDM, PDH, SONET, and SDH application environments.
Typical applications include digital connects, DSLAMs, ADMs,
multiservice platforms, switches and routers.
The STL meets 12 ppb Hold Over requirements over 0°
- 70°C temperature range. The 3.3V power requirement will
draw a maximum of 1.7 A during an initial start-up period and
then drop to a typical current of 0.6 A during normal operating
conditions. It accepts six input references and can supply up to
3 CMOS outputs (see Tables 1-4 for specific information).

Operation Overview
The STL offers both manual and autonomous modes of operation, and the option of revertive or non-revertive reference
switching during autonomous mode. In manual mode, the user has control of the module using pins CNTRL 3:1 to determine
whether the module should lock to a specific reference, enter Free Run or enter Hold Over. In autonomous mode, the module
determines the proper operating behavior depending on the state of the external references, which are frequency qualified by the
module. For further details of autonomous operation, see the state diagrams in Figure 4. The STL also offers master and slave
modes and incorporates reference qualification on all 6 external references and the slave input.
When the module is locked to a valid reference, the appropriate external indicator will be asser ted for that reference. When
internal phase error is less than 20µs, the Lock signal will be asserted. The STL takes up to 700 seconds to obtain complete phase
lock to a qualified reference. To assure that the STL will always lock to any valid frequency offset within 700 seconds, the module
goes into a Fast Acquisition mode immediately after switching to a new reference. If the module experiences a Lock alarm after it
has phase-locked to the selected reference, the module will re-enter the Fast Acquisition stage of filtering if the reference has not
been disqualified. Once locked, the filtering will return to the 0.002 Hz filter (or the user selected BW if the defaults have been
overwritten). This Fast Acquisition mode has a faster filter that allows the module to lock onto a new frequency quicker than the
0.002 Hz filter for normal, locked operation. The filtering during Fast Acquisition mode will not allow frequency movement faster than
2.9 ppm per second. Fast Acquisition mode is further described as fast start mode in GR-1244-CORE, Issue 3, section 3.6. The
current PLL status can be accessed via SPI port in register 0Eh.
A manual reset pin called Reset is provided on pin 10 of the STL device. This will reset the DSP, FPGA, and DDS causing a
disruption in all programmable devices and is the same type of reset, though not software controlled, described in Table 16. The
STL device will treat this reset as if it were following a power-up; all registers are reset to their default values. Resetting the unit by
cycling the power requires more time for restablization of the internal ovenized oscillator and is not recommended.
Hold Over mode provides a stable frequency that is guaranteed to be within ±0.012 ppm over the entire temperature range for
the first 24 hours after entry into Hold Over. The module establishes a new Hold Over history within 701 seconds after a reference
is selected and continues to do a running average every 8 seconds for the next 1049 seconds. Long-term Hold Over values are
based on a 1049 second moving window average. Hold Over values are not updated when the reference is disqualified or during
Fast Acquisition mode. Hold Over values are buffered for at least 32 seconds to allow enough time to respond to the alarms and
frequency qualification status.
Free Run is a mode of operation in which the module is not locked to a reference and its output frequency is solely dependent on
the initial frequency setting of the internal oscillator. The output frequency in Free Run is guaranteed to be ±4.6ppm of the nominal
frequency.
Reference qualification continually monitors all 6 input references, as well as the Slave input. The references are monitored for
both frequency accuracy and presence. Although loss of presence is detected almost immediately due to being continually
monitored, a delay of up to 7 seconds may occur before an out-of-band frequency is detected. This delay is caused by the fact that
reference qualification is done one reference at a time, in a round robin fashion. Each reference takes just over one second to
qualify, and so cycle time is the cause of the delay.
The STL module provides three output frequencies. Output 1 is the primary synchronized output. It is phase locked to the input
reference during normal operation and is set to a fixed frequency when operating in Hold Over or Free Run. Output 2 and Output 3
are derived from Output 1.
The STL module provides a variety of alarm and status information to alert the user to multiple conditions that may affect the
overall performance of their system. Some of this information is brought out to external pins, while other information is accessible
through the SPI port on internal memory-mapped registers. Status information from reference qualification, including frequency
offsets, is contained in these registers; information regarding phase build out and valid Hold Over is also stored here. Additionally,
the current mode of operation and SPI status are available. Certain features of the STL are programmable by the user. For complete
details on memory-mapped registers, please see SPI Timing and Operation section. For SPI timing, see Figures 8-9.
In master mode, the module will experience an alarm condition (Alarm=1) when the module is in Hold Over or Free Run. In
manual mode, an alarm condition will occur if the user selects Hold Over, Free Run or a reference that is disqualified. If the
reference is disqualified after the module starts to track it, the module will enter holdover if a valid holdover histor y is available, or
the unit will enter Free Run. In autonomous mode, the module will experience an alarm condition when there are no available
references. This may be caused by all references being disqualified by LOR or an off-frequency condition or all references may be
set to unavailable in the priority table. In these cases, the module will enter holdover if there is a valid holdover history available, or
the module will enter Free Run. In slave mode, the module will experience an alarm condition if the module is not able to lock to the
master because the master frequency has exceeded the pull-in range of the slave, or due to an LOR of the master.
The Lock indicator will be de-asserted (Lock=1) when the internal phase error is detected at 20 us or greater from the final,
locked value. This alarm can occur when the unit is initially locking to a new reference, or it can occur after lock if the module loses
lock. This alarm will be also de-asserted (Lock=1) during holdover and freerun modes.

Phase build out operation can be internally enabled or disabled through the internal memory-mapped registers. It is initially
enabled. Internal circuitry monitors the input reference for greater than 3.4µs of change over any 0.1 second interval. When this
occurs, internal buffers are reset so that the phase change is ignored, allowing the phase shift between input and output. Any phase
shift smaller than 3.4µs over 0.1 seconds will be followed to re-establish the original input/output phase relationship, unless the rate
of change causes the reference to be disqualified. Refer to Reference Qualification section (pg. 9 ) for more details on
disqualification.
The STL meets the requirements for wander generation and wander transfer as required by GR-1244, sections 5.3 and 5.4. It
also complies with phase transient requirements during Reference Rearrangement, Entry into Hold Over, and 1µs transient. Input
jitter is attenuated at about 20 dB/decade to minimize the jitter noise passed on to other network elements or clocks. Figure 15
illustrates the STL's typical roll off of attenuated jitter.
Autonomous Mode
During autonomous mode, the unit makes the decision about which reference to track based on priority and qualification status.
The goal of the module is to lock onto the highest priority qualified reference. If the revertive option is selected, the module will
switch out of the current reference, even when that reference is still qualified, as soon as a higher priority qualified reference
becomes available. The module will also switch into the highest priority qualified reference when the current reference is
disqualified. If the non-revertive option is selected, the module will only switch into another reference when the current reference is
disqualified.
If the current reference is disqualified, and there are no other qualified references to switch to, the module will enter the last valid
Hold Over value. As soon as a reference is qualified, the module will begin to track it. If no Hold Over value has been calculated,
then the unit will revert into Free Run until a reference is available. If multiple references are set to the same priority in the priority
table, the module will select the lowest reference number as the highest priority. For example, if Reference 5 and Reference 3 are
both set to priority 1, the module will consider Reference 3 to be of a higher priority than Reference 5 (assuming both are qualified
references).

Manual Mode
During manual operation, the mode of operation is determined by the user through either the external control pins CNTRL3:1 or
internal configuration bits CF3:1 (see Table 7). The default configuration is to have external control, but this can be changed to
internal control by setting the INT bit the memory-mapped registers via the SPI por t. During manual operation, the user can select
Free Run, Hold Over, or locked operation. Any of the six input references can be selected for the unit to track.
If the module is locked to a reference and that reference becomes disqualified, the module will automatically go into Hold Over.
If the module has been phase-locked to the current reference for at least 50 seconds and is in the final stage of the filter (as
indicated in register 0Eh), the Hold Over value will be derived from the data from the current reference. If the module has been
phase-locked to the current reference for less than 50 seconds, then the last valid Hold Over value will be used. If the control bits/
pins remain in the same selection that caused the unit to go into Hold Over, the unit will remain in Hold Over until the reference is requalified. At that time, after a minimum 10s soak time, the unit will attempt to relock to the same reference.
If the external user control pins select a new reference that the module has not qualified, the module will switch into the last valid
Hold Over value. If the module has not yet established a valid Hold Over, the module will return to the pre-programmed Free Run
value. As soon as the module qualifies the selected reference, it will begin the locking process.
At no time during manual mode will the unit attempt to lock to a reference that is not selected by the external pins/internal bits.
The only mode that the unit will enter automatically is into Hold Over or Free Run, and that is due to a disqualification of the
selected reference.

Master/Slave Operation
During master operation, the master pays no attention to the Slave Input reference other than monitoring it for qualification
purposes. If the slave unit is removed, there is no behavioral change in the master.
During slave operation, the slave module locks to the Slave Input reference from the master, and continually qualifies it. If the
slave module determines that the master input has gone out of range, the slave continues to lock to the master until it reaches the
end of its pull-in/hold-in range, which is approximately ±125 ppm. If the slave determines that the Slave Input frequency from the
master has been removed, the slave will use its internal priority table (which should be configured the same as the master module)
and configuration registers to begin locking to the highest priority qualified reference (or to the selected input reference if the master
unit was in manual mode). As soon as the Slave Input from the master returns, (after a 10 sec. minimum soak time) the slave will
begin locking to it.
When the module is in slave mode, the external indicator pins (Reference 1-Reference 6, Free Run, Hold Over) will remain
low, regardless of the mode. If the module is locked to or is attempting to lock to the master, the alarm indicator will be low. The
LOCK alarm works normally as long as the module is tracking the master. If the master is lost (due to LOR or out of tracking range),
and the module enters another mode, the alarm and LOCK indicators will both remain high (=1). The internal PLL status register
(0Eh) must be read to determine the current mode of operation of the module.
The goal of the slave is to maintain a zero-phase error with the Slave Input from the master. In order to accomplish this, the BW
during slave mode is increased so that the slave can respond very quickly to any change in the master's frequency to minimize the
phase difference between master and slave.

Reference Qualification
Reference qualification requires that a reference be both present and within the required frequency limits for a minimum of 10
seconds. Any time a reference is disqualified due to a loss of signal or frequency offset, the 10 second window will start over. The
active reference can also be disqualified if there is a phase-time movement on the input that is greater than the allowable movement
for jitter tolerance and frequency hold-in range. If active reference is disqualified due to a faster than allowed phase-time change
(phase hit), the module will immediately go into Hold Over (or Free Run if Hold Over is not valid) for a minimum of 2ms, after which
the module will act as though the reference was disqualified due to a LOR or off-frequency condition.

The SPI port is set up for 8 bit communication. All address bytes are 8 bits in length, reads return 8 bits and writes require 8 bits.
The MSB of each address byte is the read/write bit. The lower 7 bits are the lowest 7 bits of the specified address. For example, a
read from address 01h would require the byte 1000 0001b to be sent to the module, MSB first.

SPI Memory Mapped Registers
The internal memory-mapped registers are accessible through the SPI port on the STL module. Some registers are read-only,
while others are are accessible for a read or a write operation. The registers contain status information, alarm information,
configuration tables, and ID registers. To access the registers, please see the read and write timing diagrams in Figures 7-8.

The Priority Selection Table registers contain default information on the priority of the references, but these registers can be
overwritten by the user. The lowest priority is 0000 and the highest priority is 0110. If a reference is given priority 0000, then that
reference will be evaluated for frequency and presence, but will be considered an unavailable reference.

If multiple references are assigned the same priority, and the module is in autonomous, revertive mode, the module will select the
lowest number as the highest priority.
All priorities with a binary number greater than 0110 will be treated as though their priority was 0110. No 4-bit binary
combinations will be considered invalid.

The Reference Measurement and Qualification Status registers hold the information regarding the specified reference’s
frequency offset from nominal (accurate to within 1.5 ppm of actual frequency) and status information regarding presence and
qualification status. The Frequency Offset registers have a resolution of 0.5 ppm, and are in 2s complement form. A maximum
frequency offset of +63.5 ppm or -64 ppm can be shown in these registers. If a reference is determined to have a frequency offset
past these limits, the register will only show the maximum. The Status Indicator registers show qualification status of each reference.

Description

Reference used in PLL and PLL Status
Bit HA=1 when holdover history for the current reference is available. It will remain high when switched directly from the current
reference into holdover mode. Changing references, switching into free run, or setting the HOR bit in register 13h will clear the HA
bit. However, the valid holdover history will remain in the module’s memory until it is either overwritten by history from a new
reference, or until it is cleared by HOR.
When the module detects a 3.4 µ second phase-time change in 0.1s, it is unable to determine whether this is an actual
phase hit or a 34 ppm (or higher) frequency step. If phase build out is triggered due to a 34 ppm (or higher) frequency step, the
module will go into continuous phase build out. As the phase of the new frequency varies with the phase of the internal reference
from 0 degrees to 359 degrees and then back to 0, the phase build out bit in the pll status register (0Eh) will blink. The frequency of
this blinking will depend on the actual size of the frequency step
To prevent the module from going into a continuous phase build out state, do not attempt a 34 ppm (or greater) frequency
step unless phase build out is disabled.

The Reference Qualification Limits registers hold the information used to determine the always reject and always qualify regions
for the references. For proper module operation, the minimum space between these numbers should be 3 ppm. The LSB of each of
these registers is 0.5 ppm, and the MSB is 64 ppm, so the max number is 127.5 ppm. The format is 2s complement, positive
numbers. Note that the qualification and rejection ranges are symmetrical so that +15.5 ppm in register 10h gives a frequency
rejection limit at + or - 15.5 ppm. See Figure 6 for further details.

The Configuration registers are read/write registers that hold all of the configuration options for the device. If INT is set high, the
external pins CNTRL3:1 are ignored, and full user control is maintained through these two registers. Bits CF3:1 mimic pins
CNTRL3:1 operation, and SLV bit in the mode configuration register controls whether the unit acts as a master or slave module. For
complete master/slave operation, see Figure 5. The feature configuration register turns on and off optional features of the device
such as phase build out, revertive switching, and autonomous operation. Bits are also provided to judge priority of references
(applicable during autonomous mode only) based on their frequency offset (see registers 04h-09h) or on the priority table (see
registers 00h-02h). The module also allows a reset of Hold Over history (HOR), as well as a complete module reset (RST).
The RST bit is used to initiate a complete software reset. The proper procedure to reset the device is to write a 1 to RST and
then wait for the device to re-boot. This will reset the DSP, as well as the FPGA and DDS. Due to the complete reset, the output
frequencies will be temporarily disrupted while the programmable chips reinitialize and then the Free Run value will be reestablished.
All previous histories will be cleared. The registers will initialize as though following a power-up. Please note that there will be an
increase in current as the device reinitializes, but the current increase will stay below the stated datasheet maximum.
For optimal performance during master/slave operation, the slave unit should be configured the same as the master unit. This
will allow proper selection of input reference for the slave module in the event the signal from the master module is lost.

X - Reserved for future use. (Default - 0)
The bandwidth may be changed at any time during operation, even when the device is locked. However, the module may
experience a phase hit as the filters change bandwidth and so it is recommended to only change bandwidth upon initialization, or
when in Free Run or Hold Over modes.
If the bandwidth is changed to an undefined selection, no change in operation will occur. The initial bandwidth will remain in
effect until a valid new bandwidth is selected.
Slave mode bandwidth selection will take effect only when the unit is configured to be in slave mode. If the slave input reference
is lost (LOR), and the unit uses its configuration data to determine which reference to lock to, this bandwidth remains the same. The
purpose of the slave mode of operation is to lock to the master; if the master is lost, then the next best reference is used.

Error status
ER7,ER6,ER5,ER4,ER3,ER2,ER1 - SPI Error Status. See Table 24 (Default - 0000 0000)
The SPI Status register holds the state of the last SPI communication. An overrun error occurs when too many bytes of
information have been sent too quickly and the module was not able to process the address information before the clock started for
the data byte. Both reads and writes are invalid if this error follows their communication sequence. If an address error shows up in
this register, then the address that was sent to the module was invalid. No read or write will occur in this case. If an invalid address
is sent to the module, the module will still expect to see the SPI Enable line active and the SPI CLK line pulsed 8 times before the
next read/write cycle. All communication cycles are expected to be 2 bytes wide, whether there is an error or not. If an invalid data
error is displayed in the SPI Status register, it means that either a write was attempted on a read-only address, or an invalid data
word was written to an address. In either case, no data will be written into memory.
