If BYPASS is LOW, this signal can be set HIGH to enable
REN delay mode. In Cell Mode, DLYEN/CCKIN can be
used as an input for cell clock alignment.

When this signal is HIGH, the serial input is looped back
to the serial output. It should be normally set LOW.

The word clock is a delayed version of the WSIN signal.
A 62.5 MHz local reference clock that is used to keep the
CRU close to the incoming bit clock frequency before the
alignment process begins. Is also used as a reference
clock for the CMU.

When TESTEN is HIGH, the REFCLK is used in place
of the bit clock for low speed testing. Used for ATE
testing only. Set to logic LOW during normal operation.
