9.1.1 UTOPIA Source Interface (SRC_INTF)
The SRC_INTF block (shown in Figure 5) conveys the cells received from the
UMUX block to the UTOPIA interface. Depending on the value of UTOP_MODE
field in the UI_SRC_CFG register, the UTOPIA interface will either act as an
UTOPIA master (controls the write enable signal) or as an UTOPIA PHY device
(controls the cell available signal). As a PHY device, the SRC_INTF can either
be a UTOPIA Level One device, where it is the only device on the UTOPIA bus,
or a UTOPIA Level Two device where other devices can coexist on the UTOPIA
bus. As a master device, the SRC_INTF can only function as a UTOPIA Level
One device.
If 16_BIT_MODE is set in the UI_SRC_CFG register then all 16 bits of the
UTOPIA data bus are used. 16_BIT_MODE must be ‘0’ in UTOPIA master
mode.
