MOTOROLA
MPC826xA (HiP4) Family Hardware Specifications
5
Features
– Supports two groups of four TDM channels for a total of eight TDMs
– 2,048 bytes of SI RAM
– Bit or byte resolution
– Independent transmit and receive routing, frame synchronization
– Supports T1, CEPT, T1/E1, T3/E3, pulse code modulation highway, ISDN basic rate, ISDN
primary rate, Motorola interchip digital link (IDL), general circuit interface (GCI), and
user-defined TDM serial interfaces
— Eight independent baud rate generators and 20 input clock pins for supplying clocks to FCCs,
SCCs, SMCs, and serial channels
— Four independent 16-bit timers that can be interconnected as two 32-bit timers
Additional features of the MPC826xA family are as follows:
CPM
— 32-Kbyte dual-port RAM
— Additional MCC host commands
— Eight transfer transmission convergence (TC) layers between the TDMs and FCC2 to support
inverse multiplexing for ATM capabilities (IMA) (MPC8264 and MPC8266 only)
CPM multiplexing
— FCC2 can also be connected to the TC layer.
TC layer (MPC8264 and MPC8266 only)
— Each of the 8 TDM channels is routed in hardware to a TC layer block
– Protocol-specific overhead bits may be discarded or routed to other controllers by the SI
– Performing ATM TC layer functions (according to ITU-T I.432)
– Transmit (Tx) updates
– Cell HEC generation
– Payload scrambling using self synchronizing scrambler (programmable by the user)
– Coset generation (programmable by the user)
– Cell rate by inserting idle/unassigned cells
– Receive (Rx) updates
– Cell delineation using bit by bit HEC checking and programmable ALPHA and DELTA
parameters for the delineation state machine
– Payload descrambling using self synchronizing scrambler (programmable by the user)
– Coset removing (programmable by the user)
– Filtering idle/unassigned cells (programmable by the user)
– Performing HEC error detection and single bit error correction (programmable by user)
– Generating loss of cell delineation status/interrupt (LOC/LCD)
— Operates with FCC2 (UTOPIA 8)
— Provides serial loop back mode
— Cell echo mode is provided
— Supports both FCC transmit modes
– External rate mode—Idle cells are generated by the FCC (microcode) to control data rate.
