The start of frame is indicated by the rising edge of PCM_SYNC and runs at 8kHz. With 
WT32 in Slave mode, the frequency of PCM_CLK can be up to 4.096MHz. 
7.4.6  Slots and Sample Formats 
WT32 can receive and transmit on any selection of the first four slots following each sync 
pulse. Slot durations can be either 8 or 16 clock cycles. Durations of 8 clock cycles may 
only be used with 8-bit sample formats. Durations of 16 clocks may be used with 8, 13 or 
16-bit sample formats. 
WT32 supports 13-bit linear, 16-bit linear and 8-bit -law or A-law sample formats. The 
sample rate is 8ksamples/s. The bit order may be little or big Endian. When 16-bit slots 
are used, the 3 or 8 unused bits in each slot may be filled with sign extension, padded 
with zeros or a programmable 3-bit audio attenuation compatible with some Motorola 
CODECs.
