The transmitter impedance changes with the line
length options in order to match the load imped-
ance (75

for E1 coax, 100

for T1, 120

for

E1 shielded twisted pair), providing a minimum of
14 dB return loss for T1 and E1 frequencies during
the transmission of both marks and spaces. This
improves signal quality by minimizing reflections
from the transmitter. Impedance matching also re-
duces load power consumption by a factor of two
when compared to the return loss achieved by using
external resistors.

The CS61584A driver will automatically detect an
inactive TLCK (i.e., no data clocked to the driver)
or REFCLK input. When either of these conditions
are detected the driver is forced to the tristate (high-
impedance) condition. If the jitter attenuator is in
the transmit path, the driver will tristate after 170 to
182 TCLK clock cycles. If the attenuator is not in
the transmit path, the driver will tristate after 4 to
12 TCLK clock cycles. During Host mode opera-
tion, the CLKLOST bit in the Status register goes
high to indicate when the driver is tristated due to
the absence of TCLK or REFCLK. The driver exits
the tristate condition when four clock cycles are in-
put to TCLK. On power-up or reset, the driver is
tristated until REFCLK is present and four clock
cycles are input to TCLK. In Host mode the driver
will have to be taken out of the tristate condition by
writing the CON[3:0]. The driver is not forced to
the tristate condition during remote loopback if
TCLK is absent.

When the transmit configuration established by
CON[3:0], TAOS, or LLOOP changes state, the
transmitter stabilizes within 22 TCLK bit periods.
The transmitter takes longer to stabilize when
RLOOP1 or RLOOP2 is selected because the tim-
ing circuitry must adjust to the new frequency from
RCLK.

When the transmitter transformer secondaries are
shorted through a 0.5

resistor, the transmitter

will output a maximum of 50 mA-rms, as required

by the European specification BS6450. This spec is
met for 5.0 V operation only.

4. RECEIVER

The input signal is connected to the receiver
through a step down transformer (1.15:1 for 5 V
and 2:1 for 3.3 V). Data and clock are extracted
from the T1/E1 signal input to the line interface and
to the system. The signal is detected differentially
across the receive transformer and can be recov-
ered over the entire range of short haul cable
lengths. The transmit and receive transformer spec-
ifications are identical and are presented in the Ap-
plications section. As shown in Table 1, the
receiver slicing level is set at 65% for DS1/DSX-1
short-haul and at 50% for all other applications.

The clock recovery circuit is a second-order phase
locked loop that can tolerate up to 0.4 UI of jitter
from 10 kHz to 100 kHz without generating errors
(Figure 13). The clock and data recovery circuit is
tolerant of long strings of consecutive zeros and
will successfully recover a 1-in-175 jitter-free line
input signal.

Recovered data at RPOS and RNEG (or RDATA)
is stable and may be sampled using the recovered
clock RCLK. During Hardware mode operation,
