3/4/6-Port DS3/E3 Integrated Line
Termination Device for ATM and Packet Processing
M29313/4/6 – DS3/E3 “Line-Card-on-a-Chip”
The M29313/4/6 provides a complete physical-layer solution
for flexible high-bandwidth clear channel and ATM DS3/E3
services. The M29313/4/6 replaces several discrete devices,
aggressively reducing cost, PCB real-estate and power
for DS3/E3 ports.

Using the telecom application package (TAP) software
to abstract the physical registers, developers can easily
implement the M29313/4/6 solution, reducing design time.
The M29313/4/6 ‘line-card-on-a-chip’ includes 3/4/6 inde-
pendent DS3/E3 electrical line interface units (LIUs) with
built-in digital jitter attenuators (DJAT), and 3/4/6 DS3/E3
framers. The automatic line build out feature allows for
interfacing over 1800 feet of cable. The only requirement on
the line side is passive termination and transformers.
Each port operates independently and is supported by a
number of protocol options that may be selected from high
level data lnk controllers (HDLC) and ATM processors.
This flexibility allows service providers to provision both
ATM and clear channel DS3/E3 services on the same line
card. Fractional DS3/E3 service is also supported through
a bypass mode that allows external access to the DS3/E3
channel’s data stream between the framer and the
ATM/HDLC control allowing for external processing of the
payload. This mode also allows stacking of two M29316
devices to provide seamless support of 12 DS3/E3 line
side interfaces into one system side interface.
for ATM, and POS-PHY Level 2 for packets and/or SPI-3 for
ATM cells and HDLC packets.
The M29313/4/6 provides per channel integrated pattern
generators/detectors. A bit error rate test (BERT) can
be performed on any channel by means of the embedded
pattern generator/detector for pseudo-random bit
sequence (PRBS) or fixed 1 to 32-bit patterns for DS3/E3
framed/unframed operation. The M29313/4/6 also supports
a comprehensive set of loopbacks.
The M29313/4/6 requires only one 19.44 MHz reference
clock (passive crystal) for generating all the necessary
For flexibility, the M29313/4/6 incorporates independent
system interfaces to support cell and packet termination
into an industry-standard system bus of UTOPIA Level 2 (UL2)
internal line rate clocks and enabling the same reference
clock to be available.
The M29316/4/3 is offered in a 27 mm FCBGA package.
