Features
- High density HDLC controller ideal for Internet access, Frame Relay and DSLAM equipment supporting rates ranging from 56 Kbit/s to 52 Mbit/s.
- Supports 32 full-duplex and independently-timed links.
- Supports 128 full-duplex HDLC or transparent channels.
- Supports a TimePipe(TM) architecture that enables any physical link to be flexibly mapped to one or more HDLC channels.
- Provides 8 KB partial packet FIFO in each of the transmit and receive direction to compensate for PCI bus latency during data transfers. The 8 KB partial packet FIFO is arranged as 512 blocks of 16 byte buffers.
- The TimePipe architecture supports programmable assignment of partial packet buffers to HDLC channels.
- Two physical links can support up to 52 Mbit/s, the remaining 30 physical links can individually support up to 10 Mbit/s.
- Supports a mix of channelized and unchannelized links.
- The maximum aggregate clock rate is 64 MHz. In the case where the device is interfaced to two T3 or HSSI links, the maximum aggregate clock rate is 104 MHz.
- For channelized operation, the channel assignment supports up to 24 time slots for a T1 link and 31 time slots for an E1 link. Time slots assigned to a common HDLC channel can be noncontiguous.
|
- Performs flag delineation, bit de-stuffing, CRC verification using either CRC-32 or CRC-CCITT algorithm and length checking on receive HDLC channels.
- Performs flag insertion, bit stuffing and FCS calculation using either CRC-32 or CRC-CCITT algorithm on transmit HDLC channels.
- On the system side, provides a 33 MHz, 32 bit PCI 2.1 compliant bus interface.
- Implements efficient transmit and receive DMA controllers to support burst data transfers between partial packet FIFO and packet memory.
- Supports scatter-gather capabilities whereby a packet can span multiple buffers.
- Supports line side loopback on a per link basis and system side loopback on a per HDLC channel basis.
- Pin compatible and software compatible with PM7366 FREEDM-8.
- Provides a standard 5 signal P1149.1 JTAG test port for boundary scan board test purposes.
- Implemented in low power 3.3 Volt CMOS technology with 5 Volt tolerant inputs.
- Packaged in 256 pin ball grid array (BGA) package.

Applications
- Ideal for applications requiring HDLC, PPP and transparent protocol processing for physical links such as T1, E1, T3, E3, xDSL, and HSSI.
- Frame-based interfaces for Internet Access and DSLAM equipment.
|
- FUNI or Frame Relay service interworking interfaces for ATM switches and multiplexers.
