Reader’s Note: This data sheet assumes a particular nomenclature of the T1 operating environment. In
each 125µs frame there are 24 8-bit channels plus a framing bit. It is assumed that the framing bit is sent
first followed by channel 1. Each channel is made up of eight bits that are numbered 1 to 8. Bit number 1
is the MSB and is transmitted first. Bit number 8 is the LSB and is transmitted last. The term “locked” is
used to refer to two clock signals that are phase- or frequency-locked or derived from a common clock
(i.e., a 1.544MHz clock can be locked to a 2.048MHz clock if they share the same 8kHz component).
