Description
The MT90500 Multi-Channel AAL1 SAR is a highly integrated solution which allows systems based on a telecom bus to be interfaced to ATM networks using ATM Adaptation Layer 1 (AAL1), ATM Adaptation Layer 5 (AAL5) and ATM Adaptation Layer 0 (AAL0). The MT90500 can be connected directly to a ST-BUS time division multiplexed (TDM) backplane containing up to 1024 full duplex 64kbps channels. Up to 1024 bi-directional ATM VC connections can be simultaneously processed by the MT90500 AAL1 SAR device.
FEATUREs
• AAL1 Segmentation and Reassembly device compatible with Structured Data Transfer (SDT) as per ANSI T1.630 and ITU I.363 standards
• Transports 64kbps and N x 64kbps traffic over ATM AAL1 cells (also over AAL5 or AAL0)
• Simultaneous processing of up to 1024 bidirectional Virtual Circuits
• Flexible aggregation capabilities (Nx64) to allow any combination of 64 kbps channels while maintaining frame integrity (DS0 grooming)
• Support for clock recovery - Adaptive Clock Recovery, Synchronous Residual Time Stamp (SRTS), or external
• Primary UTOPIA port (Level 1, 25 MHz) for connection to external PHY devices with data throughput of up to 155 Mbps
• Secondary UTOPIA port for connection to an external AAL5 SAR processor, or for chaining multiple MT90500 devices
• 16-bit microprocessor port, configurable to Motorola or Intel timing
• TDM bus provides 16 bidirectional serial TDM streams at 2.048, 4.096, or 8.192 Mbps for up to 2048 TDM 64 kbps channels
• Compatible with ST-BUS, MVIP, H-MVIP and SCSA interfaces
• Supports master and slave TDM bus clock operation
• Loopback function at TDM bus interface
• Local TDM bus provides clocks, input pin and output pin for 2.048 Mbps operation
• Master clock rate up to 60 MHz
• Dual rails (3.3V for power minimization, 5V for standard I/O)
• IEEE1149 (JTAG) interface
