4 / 12 page 4 2 Advanced Communications ACS104A Data Sheet the communicating modems will achieve synchronisation with one establishing itself as an active lock modem and the other establishing itself as a drift lock modem. On subsequent attempts to lock, synchronisation will be achieved within 3 seconds. It is only necessary to apply reset to one device in the communicating pair to initiate an arbitration process. Since memory lock uses on-chip storage, loss of power to the modem will require a new reset (PORB=0). Furthermore, should there be a need to synchronise with a third modem a reset will again be required. Mixing Lock modes It is possible to mix all combinations of locking modes once the modems are locked, however, prior to synchronisation two modems configured in active lock will not operate. The effect of mixing locking modes on locking speed is given in Table 4 : Device A Device B Locking Speed Mode Mode Drift Drift Drift Drift Active Active Drift Random Random Drift Memory Random Active Active Not allowed Active Random Random Active Memory Random Random Random Random Random Memory Random Memory Memory Active (Random on first synchronisation) Table 4. Mixing lock modes PORB The Power-On Reset or PORB resets the device if forced Low for 100ms or more. This pin should be connected as figure 4. Crystal Clock Normally, a parallel resonant crystal will be connected between the pins XLI and XLO with the appropriate padding capacitors. The crystal oscillator will operate with padding capacitors of value 0 - 50pF, and the designer should endeavour to use padding capacitors of low value since this will ensure the lowest power consumption. The ACS104A has been designed to operate with a crystal tolerance of +/- 250ppm giving a relative tolerance between communicating modem pairs of 500 ppm. This wide tolerance will support the use of low value padding capacitors. Alternatively, XLI may be driven directly by an external clock. The clock frequency for the purpose of this specification is referred to as the XTAL frequency. The operational range for the XTAL frequency is 5 - 27MHz, though communicating devices must use the same nominal value. DCDB The Data Carrier Detect (DCDB) signal goes Low when the modems are synchronised ('locked') and ready for data transmission. Prior to lock (DCDB = High), the data channel output RxD will be forced Low and the handshake outputs CTS and DSR will be forced High. The status of DCDB is also given by the HBT pin. See section headed HBT Status pin. CNT Capacitor The CNT value is inversely proportional to the XTAL frequency. The capacitor is connected between pins CNT and GND. A 20 % tolerance on CNT is sufficient. For a XTAL frequency range of 5 to 27MHz the recommended value of the capacitor on CNT is from 47nF at 5MHz, 22nF at 10Hz down to 10nF at 27MHz . A ceramic type is required to ensure low leakage. The CNT capacitor value has an effect on the initial locking time and the receiver sensitivity limit. Higher values giving improved sensitivity and lower values giving faster locking. ERL (Error Detector) This signal can be used to give an indication of the quality of the optical link. Even when a DC signal is applied to the data and handshake inputs, the ACS104A modem transmits up to 200kbps over the link in each direction. This control data is used to maintain the timing and the relative positioning of 'transmit' and 'receive' windows. The transmit and control data is constantly monitored to make sure it is compatible with the 3B4B format. If a coding error is detected, ERL will go High and will remain High until reset. ERL may be reset by asserting PORB, or by removing the fiber-optic cable from one side of the link thereby forcing the device temporarily out of lock. Please note that ERL detects coding errors and not data errors, nevertheless because of the complexity of the coding rules on the ACS104A the absence of detected errors on this pin will give a good indication of a high quality link. HBT Status pin ('Heartbeat' Indicator LED) The ACS104A HBT pin affords a method of driving a display LED in a manner which is sympathetic to low power consumption. The HBT pin is pulsed to indicate 'locked' status (DCDB = 0) and 'out of lock' status (DCDB =1). The frequency of pulses is 8 times greater for 'out of lock' than for 'lock'. The LED 'on' indicates power-up whilst the frequency of pulsing denotes locking status. Since the display LED is on for (at most) 3.2 % of the total time, the HBT requires little power which may be further reduced by employing high efficiency LEDs. Powered-up, but not locked Frequency (Hz): XTAL / 3.89 * 106 Duration (s): 61,440 / XTAL On time (%): 3.2 % of time. With 10MHz XTAL : Frequency: 2.5Hz (approx.) Duration: 6.1ms (approx.) Powered-up and locked Frequency (Hz): XTAL / 15.36 * 106 Duration (s): 61,440 / XTAL On time (%): 0.4 % of time. With 10MHz XTAL : Frequency: 0.65Hz (approx.) Duration: 6.1ms (approx.) The HBT pin is active High and can supply up to 16mA at a voltage of > VDD - 0.5 Volts. The display LED should be placed between the HBT pin and GND with a series resistor. The resistor value is a function of the efficiency of the display LED, and the power budget. Example: Calculating the HBT resistor value LED on voltage: 2.0V VDD (ACS104A): 5.0V Resistor voltage: 3.0V Current to LED: 2 mA (high efficiency LED) Resistor value: 3/2*10-3 = 1500 Ω Average current: 64µA Average power: 0.32mW Note: The LED referred to in this section is of the inexpensive display type and should not be confused with the LED that interfaces with the fiber optic cable itself. Power consumption considerations The power consumption of the ACS104A is a function of the following: i. The sample-clock DR(1:3) ii. The transmit current setting (TRC) iii. Handshake signals frequency iv. XTAL frequency v. Supply voltage The sample-clock The sample-clock selected by DR(1:3), see section headed Data- Rate Selection, determines the quantity of data transmitted over the fiber link. The 'transmit' window opens once each frame and closes when the time compress FIFO is empty. The 'receive' window is aligned with the 'transmit' window of the far-end modem, and tracks the 'transmit' window such that it closes on detection of the last data bit. Clearly, the lower the sample-clock the smaller the active time and the lower the power consumption. The transmit current setting The formula given in section headed LED current control, relates to the peak current delivered to the LED. The average current |
