Two-Channel ATM SATURN User Network Interface
PM5348
S/UNI-155-DUAL
FEATURES
• Provides two independent SATURN®-
compatible ATM PHY channels in one
chip.
• Provides hardware and software
backward compatibility with the
industry- s tandard PM5346
S/UNI®-155-LITE chip.
• Implements the ATM Transmission
Convergence (TC) sublayer according
to ATM Forum specifica tio ns usi ng t he
SONET/SDH 155.52 Mbit/s STS-3c/
STM-1 and SONET 51.84 Mbit/s
STS-1 formats.
• NRZ data format supports category-5
Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP-5) or
Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) wiring
and optical datalink modules for fiber
optic cable.
• Includes on-chip clock recovery and
clock synthe sis, compliant to Bellcor e
and ITU-T requirements.
BLOCK DIAGRAM
Line Side
• Operates in timing master or timing
slave (loop timed LAN) modes.
• Frames to SONET framing bytes (A 1,
A2), processes the section and line Bit
Interleaved Parity (B1, B2) and the
Far-End Block Error (Z2) bytes.
• Interprets the H1, H2, and H3 payload
pointer bytes.
• Processes t he SONET path overhead
BIP-8 (B3), signal label (C2) and path
status (G1) bytes.
• Allows for protection switching by
monitoring the APS (K1, K2) bytes, bit
error rate thresholds and far-end
synchronization status (S1) bits and
providing interrupts when error
conditions are detected.*
• Inserts and extracts ATM payloads
using ATM ce ll delineation.
• Provides on-chip 4-cell FIFO buffers in
both transm it and receive paths.
• Operates with a backward compatible
dual 8-bit plus parity or a multi-PHY
compatible 16-bit plus parity*
SATURN-Compliant Interface for
PHYsical layer devices (SCI-PHY™).
• Cell interface is also compatible wit h
ATM Forum Level 2 UTOPIA directmode specifications.
• Provides a generic 8-bit
microprocessor bus inte rface for
configuration, contro l, and mon ito rin g.
• Provides TTL/CMOS c ompatible inputs
and outputs and differential PECL
inputs.
• Low power, +5 V CMOS technology.
• Packaged in a 28 mm by 28 mm 160-
pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP).
*NOTE:Indicates new features not
provided on S/UNI-155-LITE .
APPLICATIONS
• ATM Switches and Hubs
• ATM Routers
• Multichannel ATM Servers
