VLRCK
U
Output
VLRCK is a virtual word clock, which may not exist, but is used to illustrate the U timing.
VLRCK duty cycle is 50%. VLRCK frequency is always equal to the incoming frame rate.
If the serial audio output port is in master mode, VLRCK = OLRCK.
If the serial audio output port is in slave mode, then VLRCK needs to be externally created, if required.
U transitions are aligned within ±1% of VLRCK period to VLRCK edges

VLRCK is a virtual word clock, which may not exist, is used to illustrate the CUV timing.
VLRCK duty cycle is 50%.
In stereo mode, VLRCK frequency = AES3 frame rate. In mono mode, ALRCK frequency = 2xAES3 frame rate.
If the serial audio input port is on slave mode and TCBL is an output, then VLRCK=ILRCK if SILRPOL=0 and
VLRCK= ILRCK if SILRPOL =1.
If the serial audio input port is in master mode and TCBL is an input, then VLRCK=ILRCK if SILRPOL=0 and
VLRCK= ILRCK if SILRPOL =1.
