Bits 0 to 31/BERT 32-Bit Bit Counter (BERTBC0 and BERTBC1). This 32-bit counter increments for each
data bit (i.e., clock) received. This counter is not disabled when the receive BERT loses synchronization. This
counter is loaded with the current bit count value when the LC control bit in the BERTC0 register is toggled from
low (0) to high (1). When full, this counter saturates and sets the BBCO status bit.

Bit 0/Real-Time Synchronization Status (SYNC). Real-time status of the synchronizer (this bit is not latched). Is
set when the incoming pattern matches for 32 consecutive bit positions. Is cleared when six or more bits out of 64
are received in error.
