MT8979 ISO-CMOS
The multiframe synchronization algorithm is
dependent upon the state of frame alignment framer.
The multiframe framer will not initiate a search for
multiframe synchronization until frame sync is
synchronization is acquired, the CRC framer must
find two framing signals in bit 1 of the non-frame
alignment signal. Upon detection of the second CRC
framing signal the MT8979 will immediately go into
CRC synchronization. When maintenance feature is
enabled (maint bit = 1) the CRC framer will force a
complete reframe of the device if CRC frame
synchronization is not found within 8 ms or more
than 914 CRC errors occur per second.
achieved.
Multiframe synchronization will be
declared on the first occurrence of four consecutive
zeros in the higher order quartet of channel 16.
Once multiframe synchronization is achieved, the
framer will only go out of synchronization after
detection of two errors in the multiframe signal or
loss of frame alignment synchronization.
The CRC synchronization algorithm is also
dependent on the state of the frame alignment
framer, but is independent of the multiframe
synchronization. The CRC framer will not initate a
search for CRC framing signal until frame alignment
synchronization is achieved. Once frame alignment
