FRAME SYNCHRONIZING DEVICE

摘要

PURPOSE: To realize the frame synchronization device to demultiplex a time division multiplex signal in parallel from an STM-4C structure of a broad band overall information communication network in compliance with the ITU-T recommendations. CONSTITUTION: A serial parallel conversion circuit 10 and a byte arrangement circuit 30 detect a frame byte from high speed reception data at a transmission rate of 622 Mbps, align bytes based on a detected time and provides an output of frame data as 8-bit parallel data. A synchronizing signal pattern detection circuit 90 and a consecutive pattern confirmation circuit 100 detect frame bytes continuously based on a low speed clock obtained by applying 8 frequency division from an original clock signal at a frequency divider circuit 70 to seek a frame synchronizing signal. As a result, the power consumption is reduced and the amount of the hardware is decreased.
