S/UNI®-ATLAS-3200 Telecom Standard Product Data Sheet
Preliminary
The S/UNI-ATLAS-3200 output interface must behave as the Rx PHY-layer on the POS-PHY
bus. As the PHY-layer, it controls the flow of information to the Link-layer. It does so by
selecting the channel for transfer on the data bus, RPP_DAT. Channel selection is performed in a
weighted round-robin fashion controlled by a software-configurable calendar. The calendar is
programmed via the RxPhy block’s Calendar Address and Data Register, and is described in
Section 10.1.7. When a PHY queue is serviced, it is permitted to transfer one ATM cell or POS-
PHY packet, or an amount of data equal to the Burst Size for that PHY, whichever is less. The
RxPhy block, assisted by the Output SDQ block (see below) performs the above functions. Its
configuration registers may be found in Section 11.9.
10.1.4 Egress Mode with POS_PHY Level 3 Signaling
In this configuration, the S/UNI-ATLAS-3200 receives traffic from a traffic manager, and
transmits traffic to a PHY. This traffic consists of variable-length packets, transferred using POS-
PHY Level 3 signaling.
