FA-50261 / PCM sample encoding / Open access

Pcm biphase mark generation: final level · case 01

Continuation phase is reset between PCM transport packets.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 8 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

Continuation phase is reset between PCM transport packets.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Use the stated conversion contract at final level.

Unsuccessful approach: Inverted continuation level creates a missing boundary transition on next packet.

Case contract

Encode PCM transport payload bits as stipulated biphase-mark half-cells with mandatory boundary transitions and explicit initial/final physical levels.

Why this case matters

Offline PCM interchange uses these exact bounded packet and sample representation decisions.

Verification & scope

Stipulated finite model; no claim of hardware timing or full file-format conformance. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
