To clarify this correspondence, the following example shows
the conversion from an FC-2 Valid Data Byte to a Transmission
Character (using 8B/10B Transmission Code notation)

bits is reversed):

Translated to a transmission Character in the 8B/10B Trans-

Bits:
Each valid Transmission Character of the 8B/10B Trans-
mission Code has been given a name using the following
convention: cxx.y, where c is used to show whether the Trans-
mission Character is a Data Character (c is set to D, and the
SC/D pin is LOW) or a Special Character (c is set to K, and the
SC/D pin is HIGH). When c is set to D, xx is the decimal value
of the binary number composed of the bits E, D, C, B, and A
in that order, and the y is the decimal value of the binary
number composed of the bits H, G, and F in that order. When
c is set to K, xx and y are derived by comparing the encoded
bit patterns of the Special Character to those patterns derived
from encoded Valid Data bytes and selecting the names of the
patterns most similar to the encoded bit patterns of the Special
Character.
Under the above conventions, the Transmission Character
used for the examples above, is referred to by the name D5.2.
The Special Character K29.7 is so named because the first six
bits (abcdei) of this character make up a bit pattern similar to
that resulting from the encoding of the unencoded 11101
pattern (29), and because the second four bits (fghj) make up
a bit pattern similar to that resulting from the encoding of the
unencoded 111 pattern (7).
Note: This definition of the 10-bit Transmission Code is based
on (and is in basic agreement with) the following references,
which describe the same 10-bit transmission code.

8B/10B Transmission Code
The following information describes how the tables shall be
used for both generating valid Transmission Characters
(encoding) and checking the validity of received Transmission
Characters (decoding). It also specifies the ordering rules to
be followed when transmitting the bits within a character and
the characters within the higher-level constructs specified by
the standard.

Transmission Order
Within the definition of the 8B/10B Transmission Code, the bit
positions of the Transmission Characters are labeled a, b, c,
d, e, i, f, g, h, j. Bit “a” shall be transmitted first followed by bits
b, c, d, e, i, f, g, h, and j in that order. (Note that bit i shall be
transmitted between bit e and bit f, rather than in alphabetical
order.)
Valid and Invalid Transmission Characters
The following tables define the valid Data Characters and valid
Special Characters (K characters), respectively. The tables
are used for both generating valid Transmission Characters
(encoding) and checking the validity of received Transmission
Characters (decoding). In the tables, each Valid-Data-byte or
Special-Character-code entry has two columns that represent
two (not necessarily different) Transmission Characters. The
two columns correspond to the current value of the running
disparity (“Current RD–” or “Current RD+”). Running disparity
is a binary parameter with either the value negative (–) or the
value positive (+).
After powering on, the Transmitter may assume either a
positive or negative value for its initial running disparity. Upon
transmission of any Transmission Character, the transmitter
will select the proper version of the Transmission Character
based on the current running disparity value, and the Trans-
mitter shall calculate a new value for its running disparity
based on the contents of the transmitted character. Special
Character codes C1.7 and C2.7 can be used to force the trans-
mission of a specific Special Character with a specific running
disparity as required for some special sequences in X3.230.
After powering on, the Receiver may assume either a positive
or negative value for its initial running disparity. Upon reception
of any Transmission Character, the Receiver shall decide
whether the Transmission Character is valid or invalid
according to the following rules and tables and shall calculate
a new value for its Running Disparity based on the contents of
the received character.
The following rules for running disparity shall be used to
calculate the new running-disparity value for Transmission
Characters that have been transmitted (Transmitter’s running
disparity) and that have been received (Receiver’s running
disparity).
Running disparity for a Transmission Character shall be calcu-
lated from sub-blocks, where the first six bits (abcdei) form one
sub-block and the second four bits (fghj) form the other
sub-block. Running disparity at the beginning of the 6-bit
sub-block is the running disparity at the end of the previous
Transmission Character. Running disparity at the beginning of
the 4-bit sub-block is the running disparity at the end of the
6-bit sub-block. Running disparity at the end of the Trans-
mission Character is the running disparity at the end of the
4-bit sub-block.
Running disparity for the sub-blocks shall be calculated as
follows:
1. Running disparity at the end of any sub-block is positive if
2. Running disparity at the end of any sub-block is negative if
the sub-block contains more ones than zeros. It is also pos-
itive at the end of the 6-bit sub-block if the 6-bit sub-block
is 000111, and it is positive at the end of the 4-bit sub-block
if the 4-bit sub-block is 0011.
the sub-block contains more zeros than ones. It is also
