4.1.1 Local Mode Transmitters
In Local mode, X1 and X2 are the crystal oscillator inputs. The external component
connections are shown in Figure 4-1. Zero temperature coefficient capacitors (type
NPO) should be used for good temperature stability.
TAXlchip Crystal Connection
The Transmitter may also be run in local mode by applying a TTL frequency source to
X1 and grounding X2. The TTL source may be either from a crystal oscillator module, or
from a neighboring TAXI Transmitter CLK output. In local mode, CLK is the buffered
output of the internal crystal oscillator. Connecting the CLK output of a TAXI Receiver
directly to the X1 input of a TAXI Transmitter is not recommended, because the
Transmitter’s clock stability and jitter requirements are not satisfied by the Receiver CLK
output.
4.2 TAXI Receiver Clock Connections
The considerations and connections for the TAXI Receiver are similar to those for the
TAXI Transmitter. The Receiver X1 and X2 inputs connect to an on-chip oscillator,
whose frequency is determined by a parallel resonant crystal, or is driven by an external
TTL frequency source. The oscillator provides the reference, which sets the expected
center frequency for the data synchronizing PLL. The synchronizing PLL tracks the
incoming data and generates a bit clock from the serial data stream. All of the internal
TAXI Receiver logic, including the logic that generates the CLK output, runs on this bit
rate clock. This recovered clock is as stable as possible in both frequency and phase, as
it tracks the incoming data stream. In addition to the bit synchronization accomplished
by the PLL, the logic will maintain byte synchronization (framing) with the incoming data
