Consequently, the receive margin in asynchronous mode can be expressed as shown in equation
(1).

..... Equation (1)
where
M: Receive margin (%)
N: Ratio of bit rate to clock (N = 16)
D: Clock duty (D = 0.5 to 1.0)
L: Frame length (L = 9 to 12)
F: Absolute value of clock frequency deviation
Substituting 0 for F (absolute value of clock frequency deviation) and 0.5 for D (clock duty) in
equation (1), a receive margin of 46.875% is given by equation (2).
When D = 0.5 and F = 0,
M = {0.5 — 1/(2

..... Equation (2)
However, this is only a computed value, and a margin of 20% to 30% should be allowed when
carrying out system design.
