BERT 24-Bit Error Counter (upper byte)
Note: Bits that are underlined are read only, all other bits are read-write; default value for all bits is 0.
Bits 0 to 15 / BERT 24-Bit Error Counter (BEC). Upper two words of the 24-bit error counter. This
24-bit counter will increment for each data bit received in error. This counter is not disabled when the
receive BERT loses synchronization. This counter will be loaded with the current bit count value when
the LC control bit in the BERTC0 register is toggled from a low (0) to a high (1). When full, this counter
will saturate and set the BECO status bit.
