FREEDM-84P672
FEATURES
• Single-chip multi-channel HDLC
controller with a 66 MHz, 32 bit PCI 2.1
compatible bus for configuration,
monitoring and transfer of packet data.
• On-chip DMA controller with scatter/
gather capabilities.
• Supports up to 672 bi-directiona l
HDLC channels assigned to a
maximum of 84 channelised or
unchannelised links conveyed via a
19.44 MHz Scalable Bandwidth
Interconnect (SBI™) interface.
• Data on the SBI interface is divided
into three Synchronous Payload
Envelopes (SPEs). Each SPE can be
configured indepe nd entl y t o c arry da ta
for either 28 T1/J1 li nks, 21 E1 link s, or
one unchannelised DS-3 link.
• Supports three bi-directional HDLC
channels each assigned to an
unchannelised link with arbitrary rate
link of up to 51.84 MHz when SYSCLK
is running at 4 5 MHz. Ea ch link m ay be
configured individually to replace one
of the SPEs conveyed on the SBI
interface.
• For each channel, the HDLC receiver
supports programmable flag sequence
detection, bit de-stuffing and fr ame
check sequence validation. The
receiver supports the valid ation of bo th
CRC-CCITT and CRC-32 frame check
sequences.
• For each channel, the HDLC
transmitter supports program ma ble
flag sequence generation, bit stuffing
and frame check s equence generat ion.
The transmitter supports the
generation of both CRC-CCITT and
CRC-32 frame check sequences. The
transmitter also aborts packets under
the direction of the host or
automatically when the channel
underflows.
• Provides 32 Kbytes of on-chip memory
for partial packet buffering in both the
transmit and receive directions. This
memory may be configured to support
a variety of different channel
configurations from a single channel
with 32 Kbytes of buffering to 672
channels, each with a minimu m of 48
bytes of buffering.
• Provides a standard five signal
P1149.1 JTAG test port for boundary
scan board test purposes.
• Supports 3.3 Volt I/O on non-PCI
signals.
Supports 3.3 Volt PCI
signaling environment.
• 352 pin enhanced ball grid array
(SBGA) package.
APPLICATIONS
• PPP interfaces for routers.
• Internet/Edge Routers.
• Frame Relay/Multiservice Switch es.
• Packet-based DSLAM equipment.
• Remote Access Concentrators.
• Multiservice Access Concentrators.
