frame. Pulse operation allows an uninterrupted stream of data. However, use envelope mode to identify
frames of transparent data.
The sampling option determines the delay between CD and CTS being asserted and the resulting action by
the SCC. Assume either that these signals are asynchronous to the data and internally synchronized by the
SCC or that they are synchronous to the data with faster operation. This option allows RTS of one SCC to
be connected to CD of another SCC and to have the data synchronized and bit aligned. It is also an option
to link the transmitter synchronization to the receiver synchronization. Diagrams for the pulse/envelope
and sampling options are shown in
Section 24.4, “Achieving Synchronization in Transparent Mode.”

External Synchronization Example
Figure 24-1
shows synchronization using external signals.
Figure 24-1. Sending Transparent Frames between PowerQUICC IIs
PowerQUICC II(A) and PowerQUICC II(B) exchange transparent frames and synchronize each other
using RTS and CD. However, CTS is not required because transmission begins at any time. Thus, RTS is
connected directly to the other PowerQUICC II CD pin. GSMR_H[RSYN] is not used and transmission
and reception from each PowerQUICC II are independent.

Notes:
1. Each PowerQUICC II generates its own transmit clocks. If the transmit and receive clocks are the same, one
PowerQUICC II can generate transmit and receive clocks for the other PowerQUICC II. For example, CLK
x on
PowerQUICC II (B) could be used to clock the transmitter and receiver.
2.
CTS
should be configured as always asserted in the parallel I/O or connected to ground externally.
3. The required GSMR configurations are DIAG= 00, CTSS=1, CTSP is a “don’t care”, CDS=1, CDP=0, TTX=1, and
TRX=1. REVD and TCRC are application-dependent.
4. The transparent frame contains a CRC if TxBD[TC] is set.
