Summary of Timing-Related Terms

FMR:
Frequency Multiplier Range. The available factors for multiplying the clock
frequency (1/16 to 16, dependent on the clock rate). The actual range is
determined by the blocklength granularity.
FM:
Frequency Multiplier. The individual factor by which a channel frequency
differs from the system clock. Choices are restricted by the FMR.
Block:
A portion of transmitted or expected data.
Blocklength granularity:
The available resolution of the block in bits. Depends on the frequency
multiplying factor. This corresponds to the chosen FM factor.
Channel addition:
Exclusive OR (modulo 2) addition of two or four signal generation
channels of one module.
