O Encoder Data: The compressed voice data is proved as
a sequence of nibbles from the ATC-10B encoder. A
total of 25 nibbles is provided every vocoder frame. The
first nibble is a control nibble that is nominally set to 0000
(binary). The subsequent 24 nibbles contain the 96-bit
encoded voice data packet. Each nibble is output on the
rising edge of ENCCK. The FMEN encoder frame pulse
is used to initiate the nibble sequence.
ENCCK A5 I/O Encoder Clock: The encoder clock controls the transfer
of encoder data (ENCx). This signal must be 9600 Hz ±
0.05%. The ENCx, FMEN, GO and RUN are
synchronous with the rising edge of this clock. Either
internal or external clock can be used.
FMEN C6 I/O Encoder Frame Enable (active high): The frame enable
is set high for one ENCCK period to begin the transfer of
encoder data. The frame enable is pulsed high once
every 20 ms (normal rate) and delineates the encoding
window. . Either internal or external frame enable can be
used.

I Decoder Data: The compressed voice data is provided
as a sequence of nibbles to the ATC-10B decoder. A
total of 25 nibbles is provided every vocoder frame.
Each nibble is read on the falling edge of DECCK. The
FMDE encoder frame pulse is used to initiate the nibble
transfer sequence.
DECCK A10 I/O Decoder Clock: The decoder clock controls the transfer
of decoder data (DECx). This signal must be 9600 Hz ±
0.05%. Either internal or external clock can be used.
FMDE C11 I/O Decoder Frame Enable (active high): The frame enable
is set high for one ENCCK period to begin the transfer of
encoder data. The frame enable is pulsed high once
every 20 ms (normal rate) and delineates the decoding
window. Either internal or external frame enable can be
used.
AUDIO SIGNALS
AVI A29 I Analog Speech Input: The analog voice input signal is
filtered with a bandpass filter (100 – 3700 Hz) and
sampled at 8 kHz by a 16-bit codec. The signal should
not exceed ±1 volts peak-to-peak.
AVO C29 O Analog Speech Output: A digital-to-analog converter
operating at 8 kHz generates the analog voice output
signal. The signal is bandpass filtered (100 – 3700 Hz)
and should not exceed ±1 volts peak-to-peak.
PCM SIGNALS
DX B6 O Serial Transmit Data: Linear 16-bit PCM voice is output
from the FAA20 at a rate of 8000 samples/second. Each
sample is transmitted serially (MSB first) beginning with
the rising edge of the SCLK after the FSX signal is
detected.
