This signal is asserted if:
- BurstShort violation is detected
- Burst length violation is detected
When this signal has a value of 1, it indicates one of the preceding burst errors has been detected. These errors are treated as CRC24 errors and all open packets are treated as being in error. This signal is asserted for one clock period each time an error is detected.
A BurstShort error occurs when the spacing between Burst Control Words is less than the BurstShort parameter which is typically equal to 64 bytes. A burst length violation occurs when the length of a received burst, other than that ending with an EOP, is not a multiple of 16 bytes or is less than 64 bytes.
