In Normal Mode, these active low signals carry the

transmit data information, encoded in pulse format
as DIPULSE waveform. In Backplane Mode, the
nPULSE1 signal driver is programmable (push/pull
or open-drain), while the nPULSE2 signal provides
a clock with frequency of doubled data rate.
nPULSE1 is connected to a weak internal pull-up
resistor on the open/drain driver in backplane
mode.

This signal carries the receive data information from
the line transceiver.

programmable through the nPULSE2 pin.

An external crystal should be connected to these
pins. Oscillation frequency range is from 10 MHz to
20 MHz. If an external TTL clock is used instead, it
must be connected to XTAL1 with a 390ohm pull-up
resistor, and XTAL2 should be left floating.
