Appendix C. E1 Speech Compression
C.1 Introduction
This appendix details of operation of the Bt8110/8110B ADPCM Processor with
the Bt8510 E1 Framer/LIU (or Bt8370 T1/E1 Framer/LIU) for application to
speech compression. This mode can be used to provide full-duplex speech
compression to 16, 24, 32, or 40 kbit/s using a number of embedded and
non-embedded codes.
The Bt8110/8110B provides the coding algorithms specified in ITU–T
Recommendation G.726 and ANSI Standard T1.303-1989 at 40, 32, 24, and 16
kbit/s. It also provides the embedded codes in ITU–T Recommendation G.727
and ANSI Standard T1.310-1991. The 32 kbit/s ADPCM algorithm is also used
in the AMIS version 1 digital messaging protocol.
The speech compression application for 30 channels requires a Bt8510 E1
Framer circuit, a Bt8110/8110B (with an associated 128 K ROM for the Bt8110),
and a microprocessor for configuration and control. Up to 14 separate coding
algorithms can be selected by the controller on a channel-by-channel basis. This
application requires approximately 20 square inches and approximately 1.5 Watts
of power from a +5 V supply.
C.1.1 Configuration
Figure C-1 illustrates a configuration of the Bt8110/8110B and the Bt8510. The
Bt8510 transmits and receives a digital line at the 2.048 Mbit/s primary rate. The
slip buffer of the Bt8510 frame-synchronizes the receive signal to the transmit
signal so that the Bt8110/8110B can operate synchronously on both signals.
A single microprocessor can be used to control the Bt8510 and the
Bt8110/8110B. The only control requirement of the microprocessor is to
configure the operating mode and the per-channel control registers that set the
code rate and reset the algorithm on each channel, as desired. The Bt8510 and the
Bt8110/8110B each have a chip select input that can be used to select the desired
device.
The Bt8510 includes an integral digital timing recovery circuit and analog
interface that is compatible with either 75 Ω cable or 120 Ω twisted-pair wire and
meets the requirements of ITU–T Recommendation G.703. The timing recovery
circuit requires a 32.768 MHz clock signal. The Bt8510 provides a 16.384 MHz
output which can be divided by 2 to provide the 8.192 MHz clock required by the
Bt8110/8110B and can also be provided to the system clock input.
