Architecture 935
The NTAK79 interfaces to one DS-30X bus which contains 32
byte-interleaved timeslots operating at 2.56 Mb. Each timeslot contains 10
bits in A10 message format; 8 are assigned to voice/data (64 Kbps), one to
signaling (8 Kbps), and one is a data valid bit (8 Kbps).
The incoming serial bit stream is converted to 8-bit parallel bytes to be
directed to padding control.
The signaling bits are extracted and inserted by the A07 signaling interface
circuitry. Following is the mapping of the DS-30X timeslot number to the
PCM-30 channel number. Timeslots 0 and 16 are currently unused for PCM.

Digital PAD
Software selects A-Law or Mu-Law and one of 32 possible PAD values for
each channel. These values are provided in a PROM through which the
data is routed. The idle code for A-Law is 54H and for Mu-Law is 7FH. The
unequipped code is FFH for both A-Law and Mu-Law. As the idle code
and unequipped code can be country dependent, the software instructs
the NTAK79 to use different codes for each direction. The 32 digital pads
available are listed in Table 387 "Digital pad values and offset allocations"
(page 935). The values shown are attenuation levels; 1.0 dB is 1 dB of loss
and –1.0 dB is 1 dB of gain.
