FEATURES
• Quad-channel ATM OC-3c (155 Mb/s) PHY.
• Provides on-chip clock and data recovery and clock synthesis.
• Exceeds Bellcore-GR-253 jitter requirements.
• Provides a generic 8-bit microprocessor interface for device control and register access.
• Provides standard IEEE 1149.1 JTAG test port for boundary scan.
SONET RECEIVER
• Recovers clock and data.
• Frames to and descrambles recovered stream.
• Filters and captures Automatic Protection Switch (APS) byes (K1, K2) and detects APS byte failure.
• Detects signal degrade and signal failure threshold crossing alarms.
• Captures and debounces synchronization status byte (S1).
• Counts received section BIP-8 (B1), line BIP-24 (B2), and BIP-8 (B3) errors, and line and path FEBEs.
• Detects LOS, OOF, LOF, LAIS, LRDI, LOP, PAIS, PRDI, and PERDI.
• Provides individual divide by eight recovered clocks for each channel.
• Provides individual 8 kHz receive frame pulses for each channel.
SONET TRANSMITTER
• Synthesizes the 155.52 MHz transmit clock from a 19.44 MHz reference.
• Provides a single transmit frame pulse input to align the transport frames to a system reference.
• Provides single transmit clock as timing reference for transmit outputs.
• Inserts register programmable APS (K1 and K2) and synchronization status (S1) bytes.
• Inserts PAIS, PRDI, LAIS, and LRDI.
• Scrambles the transmit data stream.
ATM PROCESSOR
• Implements the ATM Forum User Network Interface Specification.
• Inserts and extracts ATM cells into and from the SONET SPE.
• Performs cell payload scrambling and descrambling.
• Provides a UTOPIA Level 2-compliant system interface.
• Provides synchronous 4-cell transmit and receive FIFO buffers.
PACKAGING
