-Continued from Front-
The CX2970x LVPECL line interface provides a simple interface to industry standard optical transceiver modules. The integrated
clock and data recovery and transmit synthesis circuits are compliant with Bellcore GR-253 jitter standards. In the transmit
direction the SONET/SDH framers generate all section, line, and path overhead bytes in addition to implementing framing,
scrambling and alarm indication functions. On the receive path, all framing, descrambling, alarm detection, and pointer
processing is performed. A serial interface inserts and extracts the section or line DCC bytes. The CX2970x has complete set of
ATM cell processing functions including: cell encapsulation, HEC calculation, cell delineation, payload scrambling/descrambling
and idle cell insertion/filtering. The POS processing features of the CX2970x include: HDLC framing, scrambling/descrambling,
interframe fills, FIFO management and stuffing/destuffing operations. For both ATM and POS applications a combined Utopia
Level 2/POS Level 2 16-bit interface operates at 50 MHz to support a maximum throughput of 800 Mb/s.
Software for the CX2970x is available on the Mindspeed web site and includes the CX2970x Telecom Application Package (TAP)
and the CX28299 Automatic Protection Switching (APS) software. The CX2970x TAP software is compliant with telecom
standards and includes device initialization code, configuration and diagnostic parameters, and support for failure and
performance monitoring according to applicable telecom standards. A debug monitor can optionally be compiled to assist in
initial hardware debugging. The CX28299 APS software supports linear 1+1, linear 1:n, and Unidirectional Path Switched Rings
(UPSR). The CX28299 APS software utilizes the bridging and switching features of the CX2970x family to implement a complete
physical layer APS solution that is transparent to the ATM/Link layer devices.
An evaluation module (EVM) is available from Mindspeed that demonstrates the features of the CX2970x family of devices. The
CX2904-CN8237 ATM/POS EVM includes the Mindspeed CX29704 ATM/POS PHY and the Mindspeed CN8237 ATM SAR
devices along with four optical transceiver modules in a standard PCI form factor card that can be used with most PC
motherboards. The POS system interface is accessible through two 50-pin connectors. Customers can accelerate their time-to-
market by using the evaluation module as a way to become familiar with the device. For complete EVM details including
schematics, board layout, and bill of material information, see the Mindspeed web site.
