9 UTOPIA Interface (continued)
9.2 Outgoing UTOPIA Cell Interface
9.2.1 Outgoing PHY Mode (Cells Sent by T8207)
In PHY mode, only one enable (u_txenb*[0]) signal and one cell available (u_txclav[0]) signal are used. The
u_txenb*[0] signal is an input connected to the ATM layer’s RxEnb* signal, and the u_txclav[0] signal is an output
connected to the ATM layer’s RxClav signal. As a PHY device, the T8207 may use queue group 0 (queues 0, 1, 2,
and 3) in the SDRAM and TX UTOPIA cell buffer. The div_queue bits in the main configuration 2 register (address
0112h) may be programmed to “000” for 4 queues or “101” for 1 queue, and the port_rte[63:0] bits in the TX PHY
FIFO routing 0, 1, 2, and 3 registers (addresses 017Ch, 017Eh, 017Ah, and 0178h respectively) must be pro-
grammed to zero. If only queue 0 is used, configure and use only the queue 0 registers at addresses 0440h and
2000h through 2016h. Also, if only queue 0 is used, program the mphy_select bits and priority_select bits in the
routing information 1, 2, and 3 registers addresses 0200h, 0202h, and 0204h to the zero value of “110000.” If
queues 0, 1, 2, and 3 are used, configure and use only the queue 0, 1, 2, and 3 registers at addresses 0440h
through 0446h and 2000h through 2076h. Also, if queues 0, 1, 2, and 3 are used, only the mphy_select bits in the
routing information 1 and 2 registers (addresses 0200h and 0202h) must all be programmed to the zero value of
“110000.”
For UTOPIA level 2 functionality, the PHY address is programmed in the addr_match bits of UTOPIA configuration
register (address 0114h), and the addr_clav_en bits of the main configuration 2 register (address 0112h) can be
programmed to any value mentioned in the register except “000.” As specified in the UTOPIA level 2 specification,
the T8207 drives the u_txclav[0] signal during the clock cycle following the one with its address on the u_txaddr
pins. The u_txclav[0] pin goes high impedance when not selected to support MPHY operation. When the
tx_utopia_hi_z bit in the main configuration 1 register (address 0100h) is cleared, the u_txsoc, u_txdata[7:0] and
u_txprty outputs go high impedance when not selected, allowing multiple PHYs to be connected on the same UTO-
PIA bus. In UTOPIA level 1, the above level 2 bits are not meaningful; therefore, the addr_clav_en bits must be
programmed to “000,” the u_txaddr pins must be grounded, and the addr_match bits cleared.
Note: If the SDRAM is bypassed, the T8207 uses only queue 0 in the TX UTOPIA cell buffer.
Note: Even though the outgoing (egress) queues are 0—3, the egress port is determined by the address match
bits in register 0114h.
