GMSK to GMSK EALGN=0, “Alternate” FIFO Mode
The diagram below presents the transition between two GMSK timeslots in alternate mode.
The falling edge of TX_ST can be located in one of three positions to turn off the data after the last tail symbol of the first burst.
RD_DLY is adjusted depending on the qst chosen. The rising edge of TX_ST is aligned to be 14qst before the center of the first
tail symbol of the second burst so that the effective FIFO clock starts at the correct time to align the first tail symbol to the
desired time.
In GMSK mode there is a latency of approximately 12qst (12.2qst actually) from the center of a data symbol entering the mod-
ulator to the maximum RF effect of the symbol. Thus DAC1 is aligned with the “Data at output” field and is 12qst delayed from
the data at the output of the FIFO.
Note that none of the tail bits are punctured.
In this method of operation (EALGN=0) the rising edge of TX_ST for the second and later bursts must be an integer number of
symbol times relative to the first rising edge of TX_ST. The timing is aligned with the first rising edge of TX_ST and will not
change if subsequent TX_ST transitions are aligned to this raster. (Since G_DLY is not zero then if TXST moves off the raster the
system would realign the clocks as if EALGN=1.)
This means that the guard time will be an integer number of symbols and will ignore the quarter symbol shift specified by ETSI.
There will be no glitch in this mode.
