FREEDM-32P32
32 link, 32 Channel Data Link Manager with PCI Interface
FEATURES
• High density HDLC controller ideal for
Internet access, Frame Relay, and
Multiservice Switch equipment
supporting rates ranging from 56 Kbit/s
to 52 Mbit/s.
• Supports 32 full-duplex and
independently-timed links.
• Supports 32 full-duplex HDLC or
transparent channels.
• Supports a TimePipe architecture
that enables any physical link to be
flexibly mapped to one or more HDLC
channels.
• Provides 8 KB partial packet FIFO in
each 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. When 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 timeslots
for a T1 link and 31 timeslots for an E1
link. Timeslots 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 and length
checking on transmit HDLC channels.
• On the system side, provides a
33 MHz, 32-bit PCI 2.1 compatible 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.
• Software-compatible with the PM7364
FREEDM-32.
• Provides a standard 5-signal P1149.1
JTAG test port for boundary scan test
board purposes.
• Implemented in low power 3.3 V
CMOS technology with 5 V-tolerant
inputs.
• Packaged in a 272-pin Plastic Ball Grid
Array (PBGA) 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 Multiservice Switch
equipment.
• FUNI or Frame Relay service
interworking interfaces for ATM
switches and multiplexers.
