073—Transmit Error Insert (TERROR)
Transmit error insertion capabilities are provided for system diagnostic, production test, and test equipment
applications. Writing a one to any TERROR bit injects a single occurrence of the respective error on
TPOSO/TNEGO or TNRZO outputs. Writing a zero has no effect. Multiple transmit errors can be generated
simultaneously. Injected errors also affect data sent during a Framer Loopback [FLOOP; addr 014].

TSERR
Inject CAS Multiframe (MAS) Error—Injects a single MAS pattern error. TSERR performs a
logical inversion of the first MAS bit transmitted.
0 = no effect
1 = inject MAS error
TMERR
Inject Multiframe Error—Injects a single Fs bit (T1) or MFAS (E1) bit error. TMERR
performs a logical inversion of the next multiframe bit transmitted. Processor can pace writing
to TMERR to control which MFAS bit is errored.
0 = no effect
1 = inject multiframe error
TBERR
Inject PRBS Test Pattern Error—Injects a single PRBS error by logically inverting the next
PRBS generator output bit. Processor can pace writing to TBERR to create the desired bit
error ratio (up to 5E-3 if TBERR asserted 1/192 bits at every frame interrupt).
0 = no effect
1 = inject PRBS error
BSLIP/TCOFA
Inject Transmit COFA—Forces a 1-bit shift in the location of transmit frame alignment by
deleting (or inserting) one bit position from the transmit frame. During E1 modes, BSLIP
determines in which direction the bit slip will occur. In T1 modes, only one bit deletion is
provided. TCOFA alters the extraction rate of data from the transmit slip buffer; thus, repeated
TCOFAs eventually cause a controlled frame slip where one frame of data is repeated
(T1/BSLIP = 0) or one frame of data is deleted (BSLIP = 1).

Inject CRC Error—Injects a single CRC6 (T1) or CRC4 (E1) bit error. TCERR performs a
logical inversion of the next CRC bit transmitted. The processor can pace writing to TCERR to
control which CRC bit is errored.
0 = no effect
1 = inject CRC error
Inject Frame Bit Error—Injects a single Ft, FPS, or FAS bit error depending on the selected
transmit framer mode. TFERR performs a logical inversion of the next frame bit transmitted.
The processor can pace writing to TFERR, to control which frame bit is errored.
0 = no effect
1 = inject frame error
