DESCRIPTION
The DS2143 is a comprehensive, software-driven E1 framer. It is meant to act as a slave or coprocessor to
a microcontroller or microprocessor. Quick access via the parallel control port allows a single micro to
handle many E1 lines. The DS2143 is very flexible and can be configured into numerous orientations via
software. The software orientation of the device allows the user to modify their design to conform to
future E1 specification changes. The controller contains a set of 69 8-bit internal registers which the user

can access. These internal registers are used to configure the device and obtain information from the E1
link. The device fully meets al l of the latest E1 specifications, including CCITT G.704, G.706, and
G.732.
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The DS2143 E1 Controller has four main sections: the receive side, the transmit side, the line interface
controller, and the parallel control port. See the Block Diagram. On the receive side, the device will
clock in the serial E1 stream via the RPOS and RNEG pins. The synchronizer will locate the frame and
multiframe patterns and establish their respective positions. This information will be used by the rest of
the receive side circuitry.
The DS2143 is an “off-line” framer, which means that all of the E1 serial stream that goes into the device
will come out of it unchanged. Once the E1 data has been framed to, the signaling data can be extracted.
The two-frame elastic store can either be enabled or bypassed.
The transmit side clocks in the unframed E1 stream at TSER and add in the framing pattern and the
signaling. The line interface control port will update line interface devices that contain a serial port. The
parallel control port contains a multiplexed address and data structure which can be connected to either a
microcontroller or microprocessor.
Reader’s Note:
This data sheet assumes a particular nomenclature of the E1 operating environment. There are 32 8-bit
timeslots in an E1 systems which are number 0 to 31. Timeslot 0 is transmitted first and received first.
These 32 timeslots are also referred to as channels with a numbering scheme of 1 to 32. Timeslot 0 is
identical to channel 1, timeslot 1 is identical to channel 2, and so on. Each timeslot (or channel) is made
up of 8 bits which are numbered 1 to 8. Bit number 1 is the MSB and is transmitted first. Bit number 8 is
the LSB and is transmitted last. Throughout this data sheet, the following abbreviations will be used:

Transmit NRZ serial data, sampled on the
falling edge of TCLK.

256 kHz clock which pulses high during
the LSB of each channel. Useful for parallel-to-serial conversion of

I/O
Receive Sync.
An extracted pulse, one RCLK wide, is output at this
pin which identifies either frame (RCR1.6=0) or multiframe
boundaries (RCR1.6=1). If the elastic store is enabled via the
RCR2.1, then this pin can be enabled to be an input via RCR1.5 at
which a frame boundary pulse is applied. See Section 13 for timing
details.
I
Receive Bipolar Data Inputs.
Sampled on falling edge of RCLK.
Tie together to receive NRZ data and disable BPV monitoring
circuitry.
I
System Clock.
1.544 MHz or 2.048 MHz clock. Only used when
the elastic store function is enabled via the RCR2.1. Should be tied
low in applications that do not use the elastic store.
