9.0 CLOCK BLOCKING REGISTERS
The Receive Channel Blocking Registers
(RCBR1/RCBR2/RCBR3) and the Transmit Channel
Blocking Registers (TCBR1/TCBR2/TCBR3) control
the RCHBLK and TCHBLK pins respectively. The
RCHBLK and TCHCLK pins are user programmable
outputs that can be forced either high or low during indi-
vidual channels. These outputs can be used to block
clocks to a UART or LAPD controller in Fractional T1 or
ISDN–PRI applications. When the appropriate bits are
set t o a one, the RCHBLK and TCHCLK pins will be held
high during the entire corresponding channel time. See
the timing in Section 13 for an example.

10.0 ELASTIC STORES OPERATION
The DS2151Q has two onboard two–frame (386 bits)
elastic stores. These elastic stores have two main pur-
poses. First, they can be used to rate convert the T1
data stream to 2.048 Mbps (or a multiple of 2.048 Mbps)
which is the E1 rate. Secondly, they can be used to
absorb the differences in frequency and phase between
the T1 data stream and an asynchronous (i.e., not fre-
quency locked) backplane clock. Both elastic stores
contain full controlled slip capability which is necessary
for this second purpose. The receive side elastic store
can be enabled via CCR1.2 and the transmit side elastic
store is enabled via CCR1.7. The elastic stores can be
forced to a known depth via the Elastic Store Reset bit
(CCR3.6).
10.1 Receive Side
If the receive side elastic store is enabled (CCR1.2=1),
then the user must provide either a 1.544 MHz
(CCR1.3=0) or 2.048 MHz (CCR1.3=1) clock at the
SYSCLK pin. The user has the option of either providing
a frame sync at the RFSYNC pin (RCR2.3=1) or having
the RFSYNC pin provide a pulse on frame boundaries
(RCR2.3=0). If the user wishes to obtain pulses at the
frame boundary, then RCR2.4 must be set to zero and if
the user wishes to have pulses occur at the multiframe
