Fully Integrated T1/E1 Framer and Line Interface
RFRAME[3:0]
Receiver Framer mode—Establishes the offline framer's search criteria for recovery of frame
alignment (reframe). Also works in conjunction with the RLOFA–RLOFD bits [addr 040] to
establish the online framer's criteria for loss of frame alignment. Refer to
Table A-1, Superframe Format through Table A-1, Superframe Format to find which frame
bits are monitored, and refer to Table 2-3, Criteria for Loss/Recovery of Receive Framer
Alignment for frame alignment loss/recovery criteria during the selected mode. Mode
descriptions are listed in Table 3-2. The online framer’s SF, SLC, CAS, and MFAS criteria for
loss/recovery of multiframe alignment is also selected by RFRAME[3:0].

T1/E1N
Global T1/E1 Select—Affects all Bt8370/8375/8376 functions by enabling receive and
transmit circuits to operate at either the T1 or E1 line rate. The processor must reinitialize all
control register settings after changing the T1/E1N control bit. T1/E1N selects the nominal
line rate (shown below), while the exact receive and transmit line rate frequencies are
independently determined by their respective input clock or data references. The actual receive
and transmit line frequency can vary within defined tolerances.
0 = 2.048 MHz line rate (E1)
1 = 1.544 MHz line rate (T1)
