referred to as Method 2 or the TxInClk Method. Each of these methods is described in considerable detail
below.
5.2.2.1
Operating the Transmit Overhead Data Input Interface block using Method 1 - The
TxOHClk Method
This particular method is referred to as the TxOHClk method for the following reasons.
a. The System-Side Terminal Equipment will use the TxOHClk clock output signal (from the Transmit
Overhead Data Input Interface block) to clock overhead data onto the TxOH input pin.
b. The Transmit Overhead Data Input Interface block will use the falling edge of the TxOHClk clock output
signal to sample and latch the data residing on the TxOH input pin.
To use Method 1, the System-Side Terminal Equipment will need to interface to the following Transmit
Overheads Data Input Interface pins.
TxOH
TxOHClk
TxOHFrame
TxOHIns
If Method 1 is used then the users system must be designed such that the System-Side Terminal Equipment
will be interfaced to the Transmit Overhead Data Input Interface block, in a manner as presented below in
Method 1 Operation of the Transmit Overhead Data Input Interface Block
To operate the Transmit Overhead Data Input Interface block, design/configure the System-Side Terminal
Equipment to continuously and repeatedly execute the following tasks.
TASK # 1: The System-Side Terminal Equipment must sample the state of the TxOHFrame output pin (from
the XRT79L71) upon the rising edge of the TxOHClk clock signal (which is also output from the XRT79L71).
Whenever the System-Side Terminal Equipment samples the TxOHFrame output pin "High" then it will know
that the Transmit Overhead Data Input Interface block is ready to accept overhead bits for a new E3 frame.
TASK # 2: As the System-Side Terminal Equipment samples the TxOHFrame signal, it must also keep track of
the number of rising edges (within the TxOHClk signal) that have occurred since the last time TxOHFrame was
