Name
VLTN
I/O Characteristics
Three-state TTL out-
put, changes following
RXCLK¦
Internal Pull-Down
Signal Description
Code Rule Violation Detected.
VLTN is asserted in response to detection of a 4B/5B or 5B/6B character that
does not meet the coding rules of these characters. When VLTN is asserted,
the values on the output DATA and COMMAND buses remain unchanged. VLTN
remains asserted for one RXCLK period.
VLTN is used to report character mismatches when RXBISTEN is driven LOW.
VLTN is driven LOW when the decoder is bypassed (ENCBYP is LOW).
RXEN is a three-state control for VLTN.

RXRST
TTL input, sampled on Receive FIFO Reset. Active LOW.
RXCLK¦
When the Receive FIFO is enabled (FIFOBYP is HIGH), RXEN is deasserted,
Internal Pull-Up
CE is asserted (LOW), and RXRST is sampled while asserted (LOW) by RXCLK
for seven cycles, the Receive FIFO begins its internal reset process.
Once the reset operation is started, the RXEMPTY flag is asserted and the
interface counters and address pointer are zeroed. The reset operation pro-
ceeds to clear out the internal write pointers and counters. The RXEMPTY
output remains asserted through the reset operation and remains asserted until
new data is written to the Receive FIFO. While RXRST remains asserted, the
Receive FIFO remains in reset and cannot accept received characters.
When the Receive FIFO is bypassed (FIFOBYP is LOW), RXRST is ignored.

TTL levels
Normally wired HIGH
or LOW
Receiver Discard Policy Mode Select.
• 00b—allows all characters to be written into the Receive FIFO or output to
the Receive data bus
• 01b—discards all JK or LM sync characters except the “last” one of a string
of sync characters. Single sync characters in a data stream are included in
the data written into the Receive FIFO.
• 1Xb—discards all JK or LM sync characters. The data stream written into
the Receive FIFO does not include sync characters.
Receiver BIST Enable. Active LOW.
When LOW, the receiver is configured to perform a character-for-character
match of the incoming data stream with a 511-character BIST sequence. The
result of character mismatches are indicated on the VLTN pin. Completion of
each 511-character BIST loop is accompanied by an assertion pulse on the
RXFULL flag.
,
The state of ENCBYP, FIFOBYP and BYTE8/10 have no effect on BIST
operation.

RFEN
TTL input,
asynchronous
Internal Pull-Up
Reframe Enable.
Used to control when the framer is allowed to adjust the character boundaries
based on detection of one or more framing characters in the data stream.
When framing is enabled (RFEN is HIGH) the receive framer realigns the serial
stream to the incoming 10-bit JK sync character (if BYTE8/10 is HIGH) or the
12-bit LM sync character (if BYTE8/10 is LOW). Framing is disabled when RFEN
is LOW. The deassertion of RFEN freezes the character boundary relationship
between the serial stream and character clock. RFEN is an asynchronous input,
sampled by the internal Receive PLL character clock.
