Bt8960 1.0 System Overview 1.1 Functional Summary Single-Chip 2B1Q Transceiver 1.1.1 Transmit Section The source of transmitted symbols is programmable through the microcomputer interface. The primary choices include external 2B1Q-encoded data presented to the TQ[1,0]/TDAT pins of the channel unit interface, internally looped-back receive symbols from the detector, or a constant “all ones” source. The symbols are then optionally scrambled. Isolated pulses can also be generated to support t

Bt8960 1.0 System Overview 1.2 Applications Single-Chip 2B1Q Transceiver 1.2 Applications 1.2.1 Voice/Data Pairgain A well-established market exists for voice pairgain systems. These systems trans- port several simultaneous phone conversations over a single twisted pair. They are used by telecommunications service providers to maximize the utilization of the existing copper plant, and allow it to provision many more telephone circuits than possible with ordinary 4 kHz analog transport.

Bt8960 1.0 System Overview 1.2 Applications Single-Chip 2B1Q Transceiver 1.2.3 ISDN Basic Rate Interface Concentrator Since many telecommunications service providers are positioning BRI service as residential Internet or telecommuter connectivity, the lack of installed copper pairs into the residence could be a serious limitation to the proliferation of the ser- vice. The Bt8960 solves this problem because it is capable of 416 kbps data rates. Thus, it enables the transport of two full BRI
