9.4 55-Byte UTOPIA Mode
In this special UTOPIA mode, the T8207 transmits a 55-byte cell, as opposed to 53 bytes, on the UTOPIA bus. The
extra 2 bytes are the tandem routing header received with the cell from the cell bus. These 2 bytes are appended
to the beginning of the cell with the tandem routing header [15:8] byte first, followed by the tandem routing header
[7:0] byte. Clearing the sp_utopia_sel* bit in the main configuration 1 register (address 0100h) enables this mode.
The start of cell signal (u_txsoc) is asserted only once with the first tandem routing header byte. The T8207 may be
configured for 55-byte UTOPIA mode whether it is an ATM or PHY device.
